Muslim Flight Attendant Says She Was Suspended

Muslim Flight Attendant Says She Was Suspended
...because of her religion. She refused to serve alcohol.

I saw this on CNN first. There was a doctor who is a Muslim that commented on this issue. She says that according to the Koran this rule is about abstaining from consuming alcohol. The flight attendant is a new convert I think, and she is taking it too literally. Koran says nothing, according to the commentator, about serving alcohol, and in some cases it is allowed for medicinal purposes.

It's the same thing as that shithead in Kentucky.  If you don't want to do the job, quit.  Fuck you and allah.

Sorry boss, can't work because allan says so. Pay me anyways!!

Guess what-you don't ďo your job, you're fired. Welcome to the real world.

This is what pisses me off:

Her constitutional right to hold a position she wilfully refuses to fulfil her responsibilities for? Yeah no. Protip: don't apply for jobs you can't do. I know right, who'd have thunk it??


Smh -_-

Was that the cashier guy that was sent outside for not wating to touch bottles and wrapping because of alcohol and pork? This is what tht reminded me of.

Letting someone go for not doing their job isn't a violation of rights. Do your job, or find something else to do. Hell, that's what bosses threaten regularly, right? "Do this, or I'll find someone who will" is code for "Do this or you'll be replaced entirely". Another rule I've heard is "Leave your personal feelings outside". This is what bugs me about the bakers not wanting to bake cakes for gay weddings. Your business is selling a product. Not judging people on their lifestyle choices.

She knew the responsibilities going in. Don't let the door hit you on the butt on the way out.

Meh. Good riddance, I say. It's bad enough that the sex appeal quotient of flight attendants has noticeably degenerated during my lifetime. The last thing I need is some waitress in the sky declining to serve me overpriced vodka so I can "enjoy" the cattle car experience that flying coach has become. Fuck her and her "religious principles".

this is the kind of religious dribble that is actually tearing the country apart. one nut job at a time. i don't fear the random extremist that might make himself a martyr. i fear people like this chick and kim davis. they are the ones that will effect policies. whether it be corporate or gov't. for me it's like well my religious views don't tolerate your nonsensical bullsh!t but where's my hotline to call?

There are Muslim shop owners and workers the length and breadth of the UK who would disagree with her that selling alcohol isn't allowed.

Quote:There was a doctor who is a Muslim that commented on this issue. She says that according to the Koran this rule is about abstaining from consuming alcohol. The flight attendant is a new convert I think, and she is taking it too literally. Koran says nothing, according to the commentator, about serving alcohol, and in some cases it is allowed for medicinal purposes.

I'm pretty certain they could use the same argument for selling heroin.

They do.  It's called Afghanistan.

Yet the Taliban banned opium production and cultivation because they thought it was un-Islamic.

It's kind of funny they think they've got a perfect book, written by their god to test them and see whether they're worthy of heaven or hell, and they can't even decide whether the book says drug dealing is wrong or not between them.
