BK fires Pentecostal for not wearing pants
Burger King Fired Pentecostal Teen Who Refused To Wear Pants, Lawsuit Claims
McShan says that she explained in her Burger King job interview in August 2010 that her religious beliefs require strict adherence to Scripture, which for her meant that as a female she had to wear skirts or dresses and never pants. Her interviewer, a manager at the local franchisee, Fries Restaurant Management, purportedly told her that a skirt was completely fine, and hired her as a cashier. But when McShan showed up for orientation soon after at a Burger King in Grand Prairie, Texas, a different manager allegedly told her that the skirt was unacceptable and she had to leave.

Re: BK fires Pentecostal for not wearing pants
Skirts are not modest enough I guess. Way back in the day, a new convert was allowed to wear a skirt over pants as a carhop.

Re: BK fires Pentecostal for not wearing pants
I wonder what other religions have that particular dress code? And if they would be allowed to dress that way at BK?

Re: BK fires Pentecostal for not wearing pants
The article goes on to talk about all the lawsuits that Muslums have won against companies who wouldnt allow them wear their dresses or head scarfs...

Re: BK fires Pentecostal for not wearing pants
Yes. It is such a small request to allow this young lady to wear what her beliefs require.

Yikes. This doesn't seem Scriptural.
Go get a job somewhere else.

Muslims have the right to impose thier beliefs on our industry. Why not Christians ?

Because muslims are all peace loving happy people who do no wrong unless provoked by evil westerners...
...and Christians are evil women hating neanderthals... just ask the left.

Re: BK fires Pentecostal for not wearing pants
Wearing a hijab (head covering) means that they "impose their beliefs"? You are certainly free, all of you, to stand up and fight for yours. If you have it in you that is. Me? I dont think you do unless either money or membership is involved.
On the issue of head coverings do that you know your own history from the Roman catacombs to present day. It is only recorded in your art as your teachers have otherwise buried it or traded in original teachings for their own unique "standards".
Shame only 5 uploads are allowed
Rome in the 2nd century, Rome in the 3rd century, England in the 9th century, Europe in the 12th century, Europe in the 13th century
Christian churches until 150-200 years ago taught that these were required. Now you stand up and speak badly of people who practice what your original church did before you?
Muslims and their beliefs have nothing to do with your weaknesses or priorities. If it was your tax exemption at stake - you would fight to the last man. LOL
