Workplace Discrimination - I was victimized!

Only knowing what he's said he said the company is looking for someone to work on Sunday's. If you can't work on Sunday's how can anyone expect to get the promotion?

Well maybe if you are the most clearly qualified of the 20 and they pass on you but if you are on the same level as all the other candidates and can't work the day they need the help then you're out of luck.

I have both a Bachelor's Degree and an Associates Degree. None of the other candidates have that.

This isn't a republican issue. That's silly. If anything if they were "religious right" they'd be like Chik-fil-A and close on Sundays. Methinks your target is a bit off, maybe you should aim at the actual cause.

Some people make sacrifices for their beliefs. It seems odd that you would think that such is a "burden" that others should overcome for you.

Yes, it is a republican issue. Republican sellouts have made it easy for their big business masters to lie, cheat, steal, rape, and pillage. A great example of this is the Supreme Court failing to force Walmart to pay those it victimized. This decision was based on the opinions of the five right wing nazi republican asshole justices. All of them are steaming piles of fecal matter and all of them are a disgrace to the bench.

I really see both sides of this. If I understand you right, you are saying that they could have chosen to promote you on your mon to fri shift, but didn't because you wouldn't work Sundays. If that's true, I can see your point. OTOH, if this is a situation where the company must be open on sundays, and they need that manager, or whatever position you would have been promoted in to, to work those sundays, that's kind of a hard call for me.

I get women asking me all the time on interviews if we're a "family friendly' company. After dealing with a lot of moms here, I know what this is code for. It's code for "can I come in and leave whenever the hell I want to because I have young kids and have to take them to practice and get them from school etc etc" and everyone else can pick up my slack because hey! I'm a mom!

And now I say, nope. We're not family friendly, nor family unfriendly. We're a business. It's a full time position. There are no flex hours. You get the same paid time off as the poor childless, no more, no less.

Is that hardass? I don't know. I do know what it's like to constantly have my schedule disrupted because an employee is not here, again. That said, I am talking about a small business. If we grew to over 100 employees, I might be more flexible. So it also depends on the size of the business and just how much your absence is going to effect others as well as effect the bottom line. IMO.

Wow, look at Darla kicking some business knowledge.
 
It still feels like there is more to this story that we need to know. Vader says the company has a promotion(s) available for people who can fill the company's need to work Sundays but they could move the shift to Mon - Fri. There are 20 or so people who could be up for this promotion. Vader says he has the best academic resume which could work in his favor or is could be a position where the quality of one's prior work takes precedent over one's academic credentials. Vader are you able to say what field/industry this job is in?

No, it is not hardass, it is a BUSINESS... not a 'work when you feel like it shop'.

If he was turned down for the M-F shift because he was inflexible regarding Sunday's he absolutely has a case. If the person who got the M-F shift was the better candidate, then he has no case. What he has is a CHOICE... either get the promotion and attend a different service time or put religion ahead of work and refuse the promotion.
 
My dad and I both work in 24/7 operation jobs which are vital necessities. We both get stuck working on Sundays, and in my case, every other Sunday, it can be challenging to get to a Mass. I'm not sure I can sympathize with other religious people in the workforce who also have to manage work with prayer service.
 
Millions of Americans out of work or can only find part-time work and this weak sister is moaning about having to work Sunday to get a promotion.

You really should be ashamed of your whiney ole self.
