I wonder if he objected to moving pallets of brandy butter or Christmas cake?
There are an awful lot of foods with alcohol in especially around Christmas.
-
wonder who paid the legal bill 4 his claim ? Legal Aid again
-
I thought that (the muslims who adhered to the Koran's rule) you cant consume alcohol, carrying it is ok.......?
And from my experience of living in Saudi a lot of them are p!ssheads!
-
i'm not a vindictive person by nature, but u really hope the judge sees sense and thrown the bloody case out
I'm going to quit at this point as me saying anymore could cause issues ::)

hope he loses the case and it costs his legal team shedloads , bunch of hypocrites >:( >:(

This type of situation really grips my sh!t....
The chap is a Saudi National.
He has strong religious beliefs.
He knowingly applied for a job in a workplace where alcohol is routinely moved.
Then he throws in the race/religion card and, to compound the PC (Protocol Cockedup) situation we now live in, seems that he did not work out for himself that alcohol was there, complaining that he was not told of this???
If this UK world is so bad for his beliefs, then head back to Saudi.....
Crock of sh!t..... >:(
edit to add - yep, spent a fair amount of time in Saudi in times past. They enjoy their booze as much as others, they just keep it under (open) wraps.... Its a two faced world out there, right enough......
-
Total and utter sh**e ..... this country has been ruined by rubbish like this ....... i hope the judge laughs at it and throws it out costing the complainer lots of money ..... where is all this crap going to end ...... :( :( :( :(.......
If this UK world is so bad for his beliefs, then head back to Saudi............nicely said , couldnt agree more :y
-
I'd be guessing that he is basing his complaint on being discriminated against because he wouldn't move alcohol not the actual moving of the same.
Other employees of various faiths will be asked to do the same so he has no case there.
How he was treated because he declined to move booze is the issue.
It is the same as asking for example a Jew to handle pork products, the guys beliefs are what they are and nobody should be making him go against them.
Whether it was wise for him to get a job in a role that causes this conflict is a totally different matter.
Basically reporting on a case of bullying going through a tribunal doesn't sell newspapers, putting a loony racist spin on it does.

the point of the thread is to complain/point out/and biatch about this situation and how the PC culture si going bonkers. Insulting people from different faiths goes against forum guidelines fella. If thats how you feel I suggest you keep it to yourself, racial bigotry has no place in a debate :y

It was intended to be funny, but in hindsight perhaps it is stupid at least or plain insulting at worse! :-[ :-[ :-[

No Gaffers, you were dead right mate, and it proves how easily we can all be sucked in to making a stupid offensive comment when not thinking! :y :y :y :y
Not making excuses, but the original subject of this thread just makes one feel so angry! >:( >:(

No probs with cracking jokes but, unless you already know the punchline, some do not work. To me, not knowing that your hound shares your bed, it didn't work for me, hence I modded your post.
Not tippy toeing around things - I am also not exactly PC - but some things do not sit to well on open forum. ;)
-
o,k o,k ive got the message,& ive apologised but its o,k to call them "crocks of shit" & "pissheads"?, im finding it difficult to see where the line is drawn here, i was going with the flow as it were & if i stepped over the line then once again,,,,,im sorry :'( but anyway the chap is wrong & tesco are right thats the point, just making a mountain out of a molehill in my unbiased opinion. ;)

My 'crock of sh!t' comment was on the whole scenario in general.
The 'alcohol in Saudi' comment is based on experience. The official line and reality line are certainly not close partners and double standards apply there, as they do worldwide on a whole range of subjects. What is acceptable in one country is taboo in another and in both, there are those who want the best of both countries and smudge the boundaries.
As to who the chap does or does not share his bed with, your comment is assumption and serves, in this thread, as a red herring introduced by yourself with no bearing on the actual facts of the original post, if you follow.... :y

Imo these cases are usually put up jobs,there is an agenda behind them.The worrying thing is that they often work ,which motivates those with the agenda to keep going.
i find it interesting that one of the few places were you still see lots of top shelf porn for sale is in asian shops,dont know the exact muslim rules on porn, but it doesnt sit very well with the puritanical image of muslimism which is generally held.
A bit difficult to reconcile hard core porn on top shelf and woman must be covered from head to toe in public places. :-/
If admins consider any of this u/s for open forum ,I will not be remotely offended if it is deleted. This can be a very sensitive subject. :y

yep..very sensitive subject..
* porn is strictly forbidden..but its for sale under the desk..
and for the arabia.. too many things are forbidden ..and if they catch you punishment is serious..but whatever is happening everywhere on world, the same applies but with hidden conditions..
-
and for the man who doesnt want to carry alcoholic stuff..
in whole of my country alcohol is sold and carried..And too many drink this including some people who is really serious on their belief..(although its forbidden in the holy book)
ps: but nowadays in some places there are news that the new govt is trying to stop this alcohol selling shops..And its an important debate here..

I worked at a supermarket distribution centre for a while wont say which one BUT it had a fair few Muslims working there picking for the truck loads,
To my amazement and horror came into the yard one day, to find the Muslims on strike because wait for it..............................
....................................................................
the staff toilets faced to wards mecca when they were having a break which they say was an insult to their religion!!!!!
believe t or not the supermarket chain actually built them a new toilet block facing away from mecca >:(which non muslims were not allowed to use >:( has the country gone mad? it cost them thousands to do it and while it was being built the Muslims were allowed to go home to go to the toilet!!!!
