Religion does not belong in the workplace. Also, accepting a job, means accepting the jobs' working conditions. "Special favors", for certain people, are detrimental to the workplace as a whole.

Holy fuckin moly whatever next ?? if they need to pray for up to an hour during their workday they should make it up by doing an hour of unpaid overtime

Surprise that's from the xenophobic daily mail......double whammy for them. Beat up on Muslims and make workers fight against each other

@beckyromero the focus is only on prayer breaks because that's what the corporate press want you to focus on, rather than the Dickensian working conditions.....and you are.taking up their mantle

Got news for you.

I can "focus" on more than one thing at once.

Jeff Bezos has a personal net worth over $126 billion. He can afford to give them a few extra minutes

@GJOFJ3 So when they are praying others have to do their work? Doesn't sound fair to me.

@GunSmoke9 well then you shouldn't work at a place where diversity is tolerated.

@GJOFJ3 This has nothing to do with diversity, but about fairness.
