Oct. 5th, 2006 03:00 pmOMG! The council for equal treatment has ruled that it was wrong of a city council not to hire someone just because he;
a) wouldn't shake hands with women.
b) wore obviously religious garments.
Give me a break! It's a civil service job with a dresscode! So now everyone has to wear suites expect when you're really, really religious, cuz gosh, then you can just wear whatever the hell you want!
And the irony of this guy going to the council for equel treatment when he was rejected for not treating women equally doesn't escape me either.
Goverment and religion is still seperated in this country and shaking hands really is an expected part of the job this guy was aplying to! And quite frankly, I don't trust someone who thinks I'm to beneath him to touch my damn hand, to consider me worth the effort to properly help me.
Just seriously! Reality check! I don't care what people believe on their own time, but don't go whining when the they won't give you the one job where religions legally has not place!
