On Wednesday, a few dozen people from labor and faith organizations protested outside the Hertz counter at the airport, waving signs saying, "Respect me, Respect my religion."
Making inroads, always making inroads....
Muzzies doing the jobs Americans used to do.
I don’t know how long they pray, maybe it was excessive.
I was always pissed of at employees who took multiple smoke breaks.
I don’t smoke,and I did not get the same beraks.

Well, obviously this means that (at least) 5 times a day they are NOT picketing - or do they only pray when on the clock or ‘disrupting’ business.
If they want to be respected by the “secular” world for their religion, they have to behave themselves like people of other religions do in similar circumstances. If a Jewish person or a Catholic, say, wants to go to his house of worship for a holy day falling during the work week, he arranges for the time off. Muslims should similarly treat these prayer stops as non working breaks. You’d think even CAIR would be admonishing these bums for the needless bad publicity for American Muslims.
Muslims need to go back to the country they came from, if they want time off from work to pray. Why is Hertz hiring so many muslims, anyway? 70%?
When at University, our daughter, divorced and raising a small child while working and carrying a full study load, lived in an apt. complex just below God only knows how many Muslims, whose knees hit the floor simultaneously and hard twice a night, while raising their voices fit to be heard in Mecca sans phone. One time was always in the wee hours, like 1-4 AM. She had to have some rest, so I told her to move, not complain, as there was no telling the retaliation they might take if she complained.
They do not care where they are --on the street?--no problem! just bow their head and stick their butt in the air wherever.
Would Hertz allow a Christian to clock out to pray, say during Lent or the Christmas season--not even daily,but a few special occasions a year? I think not!

I flew out of SeaTac on Tuesday and back in on Friday and didn’t see any sign-waving ragheads. They must have been out performing ritual sacrifices...
Here comes the ACLU.

How about respecting your contract agreement, filthy goat jumpers.
First, it says that the policy to clock out/in was the result of a settlement 2 full years earlier.
Then it says the policy changed last week.
My guess is the "policy change" wasn't that they had to clock out/in, but was that they decided to suspend people who BROKE the policy.
If that is true, then they are complaining not because what was legal suddenly became unacceptable, but because they've been allowed to break the rules for 2 years and suddenly they are being punished for it.
