Full title: Don't microwave sausage rolls - it'll upset other faiths! New guidelines on communal kitchen etiquette for the workplace are suggested
It may seem an innocent enough act to warm up your sausage roll in the microwave during lunch hour. But think again, because doing so could seriously upset colleagues of certain faiths, new guidelines on the etiquette of using communal kitchens at work suggest. Similarly, it would also be advisable to avoid keeping bacon rolls in a fridge shared with people whose religious beliefs prohibit them from eating pork. [snip]
The programme, commissioned by CoExist House, an interfaith group, will also deal with other matters including clothing, the right to wear religious symbols such as crucifixes and hijabs, and whether to allow time off on religious holidays.

When my first wife was alive, she used to bitch “You left the toilet seat up!” continuoslly. Before I married my second wife, I bitched at HER,”You didn’t leave the toilet seat up!”. so I dribbled on it just to make a point. It worked.
F them. F all of them.

I hosted a lunch meeting for a bunch of customers. One of the pizza’s I ordered had bacon. I think I started a trend. Some of them had never had a bacon pizza before.
Nobody noticed that the woman in the picture is about to microwave a salad? LOL
You don’t say whether your lunch guests were anyone that PC says to walk on eggshells around. If you knew that a third of them were American and another third Hindu, Jewish and/or Muslim and the rest unknown misc. nationalities, what would you have ordered for lunch then?
First time meeting. I had no idea who any of them were. I personally hate cheese only pizza. I got one of them too
Well said.
Is that your final answer?
Well yea. I guess. You asked a question I gave an answer.
We had Ice cream at work one time. It was so frozen it bent the spoon. I grabbed the carton and put in the microwave for a 10 second blast. Everyone laughed about it, but later I noticed when someone wanted ice cream they would give the carton a 10 second blast.
Soon even family members at home were microwaving the ice cream.
You nailed it 100%. The method is so obvious only a politician could fail to grasp it.
One minor correction: in this case it wasn’t even a muslim complaining but some idiot PC professor making preemptive suggestions.
So - can we ask those of “certain faiths” not to ceremonially wash their feet in the bathroom sinks?
This is real - not a joke. Leaves the sinks filthy.
Uhh...I thought you had experienced something similar to what I had described. No problemo!
Nope, more just saying that since my expense account was paying, we were eating what I wanted to buy. They all enjoyed it and some really grooved on bacon pizza.
I went to one of the local bar-restaurants here and was joking around with the bartender about her making me a bacon and egg Martini, sunny side up. It was kinda funny to me but she just has no sense of humor at all.
You got it. It’s those Buddhists.
