Interview with a Jovo

[KevinM1]

Ultimately, it boils down to Drich thinking that a business should be compelled to hire someone for a job even if they don't meet the job requirements. Working certain Sundays is a requirement for the cleaning job the OP mentioned. The lady cannot meet that requirement. Therefore, the business is well within their rights to not hire her. It's also the smart business decision. Why hire someone who cannot actually do the entire job, thereby requiring another person to be hired for those Sundays, or for one of the other already overworked cleaners to fill in, resulting in more costs?

Even though religion is the culprit in this case, that's not really the issue. The issue is one of meeting job requirements, which is far different than what Drich is trying to argue. Discrimination laws come into play when someone does meet the requirements, but is turned away specifically because of their minority status. Discrimination laws would come into play if I was turned down for a web programming job, even though I'm qualified and able to perform the job to an employer's specifications. They wouldn't come into play if I was applying to be a forklift driver, because I can't physically drive one. And even then it gets tricky because some states are At-Will states, like NH.
