In the DUmp heirarchy of hatred, Jews rank with CEOs, Southerners, and the BFEE. So it is
shocking and unprecedented to see a bouncy story with, as its sympathetic character, one of the Joooos:

A friend of mine was fired for refusing to remove his Star of David necklace that he has been
wearing for more than 20 years. All of a sudden the employer decided that it was a safety hazard.
I hope that he will see a lawyer. I really think that these days it is a lot easier for employer to
get rid of "problem" employees under the guise of "the recession."

in preferring to lose a job of over 20 years, rather than remove a piece of jewelry.

1. Damn straight it is. I've been employed since April, after about a year of being unemployed,
and terrified. The company I work for is pretty decent but the petty indignities and added
expectations are mounting. It's a sales and marketing position (with a base salary and benefits)
and my numbers were fine until just last week. I, along with the majority of the people hired
the same time I was, am now on "probation" pending my ability to meet a new benchmark.
Somehow I predict that the benchmark will be moved again. I suspect I'm not long for this job.
DUmmy Hello_Kitty's "sales and marketing position" sounds suspiciously like a call center.

2. Well . . . dangling jewelry *is* often a real hazard. Of course, if he's an accountant . . .
That wouldn't matter. Do you know the circumstances?

5. No, he does work on the floor however, he was wearing it for more than 20 years. And, I would
think, be the first one to understand any hazard. Apparently there was a new employee manual
and when he went to ask HR for clarification, an addendum was added. I just heard about it and
they are in shock but one has to wonder about the "out of the blue" rule.
It's pretty obvious that if this isn't a bouncy lie made out of thin air, then the heroic, stupid Jew is
DUmmy question everything himself.

Isn't that a violation of the first amendment? He should get in contact with the american civil
liberties union... ACLU This is important for him and the rest of the citizenry.
Now let's see...what group is more deeply hated by democrats than CEOs, Bushes, or Jews??

11. Could be it's been unsafe all along and he's just been lucky to avoid . . .
a lost-time incident or worse. Sounds like the employer upgraded its procedures. Is this a
workplace overwhelmed by christianists or some other sect that would consider anyone who's
Jewish to be a "problem" employee? I'm guessing not, if he's been there more than 20 years.
This might be a "sometimes a hazard is just a hazard" situation.
Oh, yeah, it's those evil Christians, whose entire religion is the antithesis of democrat party
principles.

6. The big question is... did anyone one wearing a cross also get fired?
I think I know the answer to that one.
No one wearing a cross would be stupid enough to dangle it around machinery.
