I'm a plant broker, I bring plants into the country, so not a religious company to say the least... BUT my immediate supervisor/boss is a youth pastor and he hires a lot of the kids (part timers) that do bring a religious aspect to this company... one of them keeps a bible on his desk, others have scriptures nicely writte on post its and while none of them try to impose their religion on me or anyone here (that I know of) I just find it inappropriate and someone annoying... I swear one of them was praying for my salvation lol.... One other major thing is the CEO of the company seems to always bring up either heaven or god when ever he has to present/talk about something in meetings or in company wide emails...People just can't seem to keep religion out of shit that has nothing to do with it. smh...

I don't want to bring it up to anyone here cuase there are cases where people have lost their jobs and im not trying to do that... Not that it will definitely happen, but you never know.. could hurt my opportunity to grow with this company or worse, or nothing at all could happen...  despite the nonsense I mentioned above, its not a bad job and it's a job in my field...

Just wondering if anyone else is going through this like I am...
This could actually be alot of fun for you if your like me and enjoy fucking with and antagonising people. What you need to do is use a firm but non hostile approach when they inevitably try to convert you. Give them good solid reasons as to why you don't believe and why you think Christianity is crap. Be firm and stand up for yourself.without remorse but don't get hostile as you have to work with these people.
Here are some ways it will likely end. You lie and pretend your a Christian in which case people will on some level sense your lying and you will be somewhat alienated.
You are honest and take my advice. They will eventually stop bugging you especially after you eventually strike a nerve and get a message thtough. Though they will always keep you at arms length.
Or you are openly hostile. Not recommended ad this will make enemies and get you fired quick

as of yet, no one has tried to convert me but I do think I know how I'll respond if approached with that, and that will be with telling them what I believe, more specifically, don't believe and do it as you said... in a non hostile, non attacking manner...
