Interview with a Jovo

[Longhorn]

But, monkey poo, if the job's 'requirements' conflict with the discrimation laws, it does not matter how 'common sense' you seem to think the job requirements are, you and that business are operating outside the law.

Side note: If creating job requirements that infringe upon a persons religious freedoms is ok, and to you it is a matter of 'common sense' that one does not hire a person because a company can 'top shelf'/Keep a religious person from ever holding a job because of legitmate religious observances, then know this Law was made to correct people who practice bigoted behavior like you and all those who think like you...

That is again unless you Christian and are being discriminated against.

I don't know why you're bringing up American law, since the OP is British. And personally I think any business owner should be able to refuse to hire anybody on any basis. But that's not the case here.

Let me repeat it one last time. It's very simple.

This job requires working on Sundays.
She says she doesn't want to/won't work on Sundays.
Ergo, she doesn't meet the requirement and is not hired.

That's it. No religious persecution here. If you hold the belief that working on a Sunday is wrong and think it's a higher priority than having a job, it's your problem. In case you missed it, there are Muslims working there and none of them have any problems with not having a sacred day off. Tough tits.
