And the court should side with Disney. They are not denying her employment, so it should not be an issue.

I read an artical on yahoo this morning about questions your employer could not ask. In the religion segment there was this statement
"Employers are required to accommodate an employee's religious beliefs or practices in regards to things such as dress and grooming policy and flexible scheduling."
heres a link to the artical

I think Disney has made a great effort to do this, she has declined thier offers and chose to go home and create what she thought was going to be negative publicity.

That may be true but there are no references in the article siting the actual law pertaining to it.

Leads & I were talking abt this last night. We can't wear a cross on stage. We can't wear a cross on our ONE ring per hand CMs are allowed. I'm Catholic & must cover my necklace. Did I know before I signed with DLR? Probably. Does this bother me? Not at all.

One ring per hand?
Does that mean a woman can't wear her engagement ring and wedding band together on the left ring finger as is commonly done?

I had my Wedding and engagement ring fused together,but I can't imagine that even Disney would be checking on such a thing.....
CMs should encourage their beloveds to get them a very large and expensive ring just in case I am wrong ;)

That's the one exception to the rule - a wedding and engagement ring are considered a set and allowed.

This is the last time I'll make a statement on this issue. Many times in history, htere were people who sounded the alarm that such-andsuch country or group of people were ready to attack the U.S., and their warnings were disregarded. Right before the attack on Pearl Harbor, there were warnings that Japan was going to attack Pearl Harbor where the U.S. Navy had their fleet. Even as the Zero fighters were approaching and starting to bomb the harbor, frantic phone calls to the brass were rebuffed with warnings against making false reports. It wasn't until the middle of the attack that the brass found out it wasn't a prank. Same thing with 9/11; nobody listened until too late.
I once read soewhere that a historian researched why the great civilizations of the world rose and fell. When I find that article, I will supply it. I can even supply the email forwards upon request. I saved them.
Just remember this when Muslims take over the U.S., and I'll be saying I told you so.

If I were to believe forwarded e-mails I would have to argue that they already have through Obama. :twisted: To my credit, I don't believe anything I read and only half of what I see.
