Here's One For Ya.

give me a break guys.

flat out intolerance only begets more intolerance.

fact is employers are required by law to provide reasonable accomodation based on religious grounds. let him keep the hair, just keep it in a hat.

your just bitchin because you think you have bad hair. fact is the company can impose a dress code that is reasonable. you may ask to wear the hat if you are in the sun all day...

you could become a seik.... or a, wait for it, a MUSLIM....

tell 'em you're a "crip". then wear a bandana.

As a fellow Atheist, this is why I hate Religion.

They get tax breaks and get special rules all for what....an imaginary figure that probably doesn't exist? It's bullshit.

I actually thought about starting my own Atheist "church" to see if I could get tax breaks and just live there.

Is it that worth it to trip on not being able to wear baseball cap. Doesn't state a professional stance in my book.

Hijab-Wearing Worker to Sue Abercrombie & Fitch for Discrimination


A Hollister County store worker is planning to file a lawsuit in San Francisco Monday against the store's parent company, Abercrombie & Fitch, for firing her when she refused to take off her Muslim headscarf, or hijab, while on the job.

Hani Khan worked in the stockroom of the store in the Hillsdale Shopping Center in San Mateo from 2009 to February 2010. When hired, she had agreed to wear only white, navy, or gray headscarves. But after a district manager visited the store, Khan was asked by the corporation to take off the headscarf entirely while at work. She was told it didn't comply with the company's "look policy."

And considering Abercrombie's models usually aren't even fully clothed, we can imagine how a modest headscarf just wouldn't match.


Khan refused to remove her scarf and was subsequently fired. She will be represented by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which will file a lawsuit along with the San Francisco district office of the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.


Abercrombie's policy bans headwear, not just hijabs, but Khan joins at least two other Muslim women who have sued Abercrombie for having allegedly been fired or denied a job due to their headscarves. One worked at a store in Tulsa and the other was denied a job in Milpitas.

that is NOT a light saber.

how bad is your hair man? i couldn't read through 9 pages of this but that's what i want to know. i don't think hats are professional, sorry. i don't think the DHL guy looks pro in a hat, not that i use DHL, i always use fedex and ups but i never see those guys in a hat. maybe they have a company hat with their logo? why don't you propose that at your company. that's more professional but can you tell me about your hair? very curious. i have bad hair today, iits really long and split a tthe ends and it's not flat, it's looking bad but i don't care to wear a hat. i don't think the other guy should be able to wear a hat either but you do't nkow his situation. i think religion is a really stupid reason to wear a hat, why should anyone care about anyone else's religion? i run the place and i say no hat, that means no hat for anyone. that religion excuse is a load of crap. i wouldn't stand for that either. i also wouldn't lose my job over it!!! so i gues si wouldn't do shit and i would remove the hat.

you would have to wear the light saber on your head

say you're a kabbalist

Just give up and put down the baseball cap for the sake of a salary.... Fucking loser....

I agree with the op. Absolutely ridiculous that a belief in utter nonsense allows you an exemption to the rules. Is it really worth all the trouble and bitching just to wear a hat? Probably not, but it's a matter of principal. Why not just start a new religion called baseball capafarian? There is absolutely no standard of proof for any religion or belief and it is not politically correct to question someones religion no matter how bat shit insane it is. They are all made up anyway, why not just make one more up?

Nobody is saying the policy isn't reasonable. It's the religious exceptions that are unreasonable.
