He knows the kids have been warned about ICE by now, so he's using a different tactic.

You gotta pity any guy who winds up working for George Jefferson.

Do share where if you find it, plz!

Regardless of whether the community judges it appropriate, I certainly am interested in this, and so gratefully thank you for posting it.

There are a LOT of oddly specific communities, so I'd suggest using your client's search function to search community names for other potential targets for this.

Thanks again!

The difference is your option results in death, while theirs results in life.

It's a bit like attacking someone's food preferences. One of the more commonly seen examples is pineapple on pizza: some love it, while others are absolutely as repulsed as you describe. It's just a matter of taste and personal preferences. Attacking others for liking pineapple opens the attackers up to being attacked for liking something else (e.g. olives).

In the end it's best just to accept that such variations in people keeps the world from being bland and boring. Variety, as they say, is the spice of life (assuming it's all above board as the other commenter mentioned).

Is that not subject to a "reasonable accommodation" limit, though? It's not like anyone could actually use my "King" example, and expect it to work just because they acted as if they genuinely believed it, right?

If he did, I bet he was just fine with taking other medicines for it. Heck, he probably got the vaccine, but thought he could cash in on the anti-vaxer bullshit.

Yeah, I read it. Pardon me if I believe his "beliefs" weren't believably beliefs.

Good. Co-workers shouldn't have to be held hostage to random bullshit "beliefs" without sufficient backing evidence. Imagine if he claimed a "legitimate belief" that God declared him "King," and therefore all must bow before him. Fuck off with that bullshit. Your private beliefs are exactly that: private. In a shared work environment, all must accommodate an agreed upon shared set of rules, or you are excluded from that environment. Period.

That's hair? Thought it was a "do rag."
