Hajii power play

Check this.

Can I stop serving fat folks 'cuse I'm fit? How about if I'm a cowboy and refuse to touch vegetables??

How about I go 17th century and stop interacting with folks who aren't Prod'(istants). Maybe pull a Lutheran or Catholic card and not ring up the cash register for those pig breathed moslems??

They try to get away with it because they know they can!

Muslim checkout staff get an alcohol opt-out clause [Tom Gross]
From
The Sunday Times (of London):

MUSLIM supermarket checkout staff [in Britain] who refuse to sell alcohol are being allowed to opt out of handling customers’ bottles and cans of drink.

Islamic workers at Sainsbury’s [one of the UK’s biggest supermarket chains] who object to alcohol on religious grounds are told to raise their hands when encountering any drink at their till so that a colleague can temporarily take their place or scan items for them.

Other staff have refused to work stacking shelves with wine, beer and spirits and have been found alternative roles in the company.

As a Times reader wrote: “Are vegetarian staff at Sainsbury permitted to refuse to sell meat? Are teetotalers also allowed to refuse to sell alcohol?”
