By refusing a job, do you mean refusing to perform one's job?  Like if a restaurant owner said "I refuse to serve gay people."  He's technically not kicking them out, but he's making it impossible for them to actually make use of his services.

No, where one is objecting to the job or the specific service being asked for. Not because of who it is for. For instance those who didn’t want their names on the dresses for the Trump inauguration, vs those who would refuse to serve anyone connected with the Trump administration. I don’t think a restaraunt can justify refusing to serve food and o a person. However they should not be forced to cater a kkk rally. The question I ask, is if the job requires the paticular knowledge Of what you are rejecting, in order to preform it.

I don’t see where one could justify refusing to serve a person food, because they are gay, Republican, or Democrat.
