My atheism.
Like Binny, I work for myself. A comment made by her hit home and I realized I'm not so alone.
When on a job that part of me has to to be locked in the closet.
It just grates my cheese when a customer starts in with the "Oh thank Jesus, praise God he sent you here." (I thought it was their phone call to me that sent me there(?)) when the repairs are minor and inexpensive.
When giving bad news, major repairs/expensive I get asked "Are you Christian?" as if they are judging my honesty by asking this question.
Or even worse they start 'witnessing' to me and that part of me locked in that closet also needs to be bound and gagged because I got a $1800 job staring at me and honesty about that aspect of my life most likely would cost me that job. So I force myself to 'play the part' and I respond "Oh yes, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Halleluja. Praise God! etc etc etc ad nauseum...."
Anyone else? Anyone else here who's very bread and butter, who's very livelyhood would be threatened if they gave honest answers or responses to religious actions by others? Have you ever taken a chance and been honest and it cost you a job or money in some way?

I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.
