Also, is no one else concerned that this rally looked like something out of Deliverance?

Thank you for continuing to make this point, seriously. I worked at a vet with another tech who decided at some point she didn’t want to handle cats. We lived in a conservative area and the vets were both lesbians and so was this tech, and I think they were afraid that she wouldn’t be able to find work. Fine I kind of…

As soon as I heard about this I thought, “I bet she’s a recent convert.”

She did, however, refuse to do a large part of her job, and make her coworkers pick up her slack. No one was denied alcohol, but her coworkers suddenly had to a job and a half while getting paid the same salary she did for doing half a job. It’s an excellent arrangement for her, and I can see why she would fight tooth…

I assumed they were both serving down the aisle and every time alcohol was ordered it’d be the responsibility of employee not this woman [Anna] to fill it. Then, when it’s not regular service time, Anna is having to respond to all alcohol orders. So the scenario goes something like this: both attendants walking down…

Part of a flight attendant’s job is to serve alcohol. You should be able to carry out all your job requirements, unless you are physically incapable. She’s not physically incapable, she’s spiritually incapable. Therefore she doesn’t belong on a plane where most passengers are going to want to have alcohol. What if…

Any beliefs of non-violence I have are suspended when it comes to these fucking monsters. This woman did the world a public service.

Breaking news: sometimes your job might conflict with your religious beliefs so you might have to quit your job. THE END

She might not be an asshole but she’s no different from, say, pharmacists refusing to sell birth control. We regularly call them assholes too so what’s the difference here? Her beliefs are preventing her from doing her job and screwing over passengers who have to wait for the non-fundie stewardess to finally pass by…

There is NO difference between the alcohol and medication issues. It’s ridiculous. If your fucking conscience impedes you from doing what a customer is asking you to do (legally), give up the job.

In one sense, I agree that the situations aren’t comparable. Davis refuses to act as the state performing a function of the state, when in reality the state itself does not have a freedom to religion. She has that job, she needs to do that job, full stop, or remove herself from the position of being a representative…

I mean, if a compromise or negotiation satisfies all parties then fine, but ultimately if you can’t fulfil your entire contract then... bye.

Fuck these religious assholes who think they’re entitled to a job, fuck them. Go find “work” in your religious institutions, not in jobs serving the public.

I am in Europe and the only people who say “Europe is better” clearly don’t visit here or know much about is or our history. It has been a mess since forever.

You must be thinking of Arizona. Texas is surprisingly accepting of our illegal immigrants. We have more than anyone but CA and you rarely hear of problems.

I don’t even know what to say to this. What kind of “proper punishment” are you referring to? Whether it was considered “proper” by the Nazis or not, it doesn’t fucking make it PROPER. These were innocent people being “properly punished” for simply being born. I smell a Nazi sympathizer.

Are you inferring that it matters where he stood when he did the killing? “IN REALITY” (to quote you) he set his dogs on prisoners to rip them apart; he shot hundreds, if not thousands of prisoners personally, according to trial testimony; hung others; tortured others; directed the killing of thousands. IN REALITY, “A…

Oh right, because that makes all the difference for someone who ran a fucking concentration camp. He perhaps didn’t shoot people from his balcony like in the movie.

My grandmother died a month ago and one of my biggest regrets was not recording her history. I’d planned to do so during her next visit — I was supposed to pick her up from the airport this morning, actually — but she got very sick out of the blue. Of course, her story was nowhere near as riveting as this woman’s, but…
