I may have taken leftover bacon bits and sprinkled them on my Muslim neighbo’rs sidewalk. Then I may have said a spell to ward off evil and send it back to hell. Is that wrong? After all, they weren’t the good bacon bits. They were the soggy, mushy kind that came with a prepackaged chef salad.

Sign: “PORK EATEN HERE. PLEASE CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELF”
I seriously doubt that gentile employees kept their ham sandwiches separated from Jewish employees’chopped liver in company refrigerators up to the present day. Besides, not a few Jews eat ham sandwiches. So perhaps not a few Muslims are closet BLT fanciers.
One of my son’s closest friends is a muslim. My son tells me that his friend told him that during Ramadan, he tries not to eat pork during daylight hours.
How Islamic of him.
Oh, I think we all know what "certain faiths" might happen to be.
Not Jewish. I've never worked with a Jewish person who cared.
Not Hindu or Sikh, they don't care either. Even if they are vegetarian.
I'm NOT struggling to guess just what the "certain faiths" might possibly be.
So just to be safe, make sure the YOU adapt to the rigors of the "certain faith's" dietary rules.
It's the only way to be sure.
It was oh-so-PC to use the plural “certain faiths.”
How odd. I’ve worked in departments full of Jewish coworkers (publishing, wall street) and no one *ever* mentioned not bringing pork containing leftovers to work. Or heating pork containing food in the stove or microwave.
How totally odd. /s
That’s a little like the Pope being okay with his homo friend, but embarrassed by the clerk in Texas who holds the same position on marriage as the Chirch he leads.
“it’ll upset other faiths!”
F’em
With real religions, tolerance is a two-way street. I have never had a Jew complain about the presence of pork or even the smell. In fact, I have heard several comment on how much some of them like the smell of bacon, even those who don’t eat bacon. As for those groups that want to impose their so-called religion on others, this is the United States, and I am not interested in coddling them.
He practices talk-i-yaki (or whatever the hell it is) on himself.
Damned right. I worked in a Troy, MI office that was mostly Indian-staffed but owned by a US Michigan-based company where the Office Manager was acting like the mother hen but was also there for keeping up appearances of multiculturalism. She was white, mid-30’s and a PC zealot. She spoke to the male foreigners like they were children and was intolerant of talk about eating beef or meat, especially during working lunches when pizza was being ordered in. “You will NEVER have pepperoni on your pizza here as long as WE’RE ordering it!”...is what she said when I said that when I order pizza, I get pepperoni if not double pepperoni but that some of the non-meat pizza tasted pretty good without it. All she needed to hear was the word “pepperoni”. The fact was that not all of the Indian people working there were even Hindu or vegetarian but she was there to ‘protect’ them when as Office Manager, she should have been more concerned with ordering coffee, cream, sugar, additional office supplies and signing for UPS and FedEx deliveries.
Muslims, however, get upset -- but not because it bothers them. Muslims get upset because they see a method by which they can change society and force it to be closer to Islam (all pork products are banned). Muslims play a long game -- they hope that in a few generations, Sharia Law will be in place here. For now, acting upset about sausage rolls is just one of their tactics.
Zoroastrianism? Jainism? Baha’i?
When I use the toilet, I am not obligated to leave the seat up or down on the speculation about the preferences of the person who might use it next.
If the microwave oven is not suitably clean when you want to warm your food in it, you are welcome to bring it in compliance to your personal standards. While I will not leave a mess, I cannot be held to your standards, especially when you will not be held to mine.
According to the Koran, Muslims are to remain silent while in the bathroom. I would never consider engaging them in conversation. Uh huh.
