After firing nearly two hundred Muslim workers who walked off the job last week due to a dispute over the company’s accommodations of their prayers rituals, a Cargill beef processing plant in Fort Morgan, CO is under fire for “discrimination”.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations or CAIR as they’re more commonly known has stepped in to paint these Somali Muslims as victims of some sort of hate crime, saying that he has testimonies from workers claiming that they were told to go home if they want to pray.
Cargill spokesman Mike Martin disputed these claims saying that none of the workers were ever told that, and the reason the plan can’t have a large prayer facility is because it would disrupt operations. Fair enough. Can you imagine the chaos that would ensue if workers decided to just walk away from their assembly lines to pray. There’s that and the fact that Cargill shouldn’t have to build a prayer room to accommodate these workers. They’re running a beef processing plant not a mosque.

GREAT they should work not paly games
If you want to keep your job then pray before you come to work or after you leave…..no company will pay anyone that left the job…..a lot of jobs are the kind the has an assembly line and except for a fifteen minute off while someone fills in and lunch or dinner break of maybe twenty minutes ….that’s all the off time you get…..apt of jobs I had you were off before you start your shift and you were off when you left for home…..,These people from other places always said a,Americans were lazy til they come here a.d find out our weekly hours are 40 plus hours some people put in a min of 50 and up….my kids all had jobs that it was a slow week or place was closed for holiday or model change over Auto manufacturing…..So they need to assimilate and adjust their religion to accommodate their jobs and if they can assimilate then maybe they need to move to another Muslim country.
boo hoo. Go home – stop pushing your belief on people who are not interested.
NOW GO BK HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
