Some Muslim workers at Target refuse to handle pork


If the Target Pharmacy will fire any pharmacist that refuses to dispense Plan B pills, will the Target Grocery fire Ahmmed if he refuses to scan the bacon? Let's see a single standard being applied here folks!

I don't care one way or another about their beliefs on this; if that is how they feel, fine. But why take a job where touching pork is a constant worry? As the author says...
How do Muslim workers adapt in Super Targets where there are full-fledged grocery sections?
It's not like being a cashier is some elite position; move to another part of the damn store. Or move somewhere else altogether.

Of course, the executives can not move them unilaterally because that would be "discrimination". :rolleyes:

All they are doing is handling plastic or cardboard, if they have to touch the pork to ring it up I don't want it either.

If they accept the job, they accept all that goes with it. If they refuse to swip it, they should be fired. :shrug: Not real complicated.
