artic 595 Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 Totally out of order, no business to question the customer, maybe he/she was bored of doing such a technical job. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Timid Toad 18 Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 how about they send him out to support the war and do a bit of fighting instead of being sat on his arse behind a nice safe checkout point grrrr Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Attack Fell Terrier 864 Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 I think there should be some sort of petition put together to get the lad on the till and the manager the sack! That is blatant discrimination IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If he was of the Islamic persuasion he may have had personal reasons for objecting to "supporting a war" he sees as against his religion. So far so fair enough. It may also be the case that his gaffer was frit of arguing with him BECAUSE he might claim religious grounds for his action, so no-one is allowed to disagree with him . . . In which case he can go take a flying f**k at himself. I am passionately opposed to the BNP but that doesn't mean I'm opposed to British values like tolerance for the views of others. Well and good, but it works both ways. Voltaire said " I disagree completely with what you say but I will defend your right to say it." What Voltaire did not add was "provided always that you defend my right publicly to express my disagreement". Radical Islamists demand the right to say in public what they think but deny my right to oppose their views in public. If I had my way all those anti-Muslim cartoons from that Danish paper would be published world wide. If you can't stand the heat stay out of the kitchen. On the other hand I have had a few week-end type beers . . . Ric Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ferret15 0 Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 this is the reply i got from them looks just like the statement in the news paper article glad thy took the time to respond personally lol what a joke Dear Marie, Thank you for contacting us. I'm sorry to hear you are unhappy with the story that has been in the media recently. We are big supporters of the Help for Heroes campaign and we sell the pin badges and wrist band in hundreds of our stores. We were shocked and surprised to hear of an incident involving one of our colleagues at the Rochdale store. We are not aware of any incident of this nature taking place. If it were to be found true we would take it very seriously indeed. That's why we'd like to take this opportunity to invite the customer back into the store if she'd like to discuss the details with the store manager. We can then look to investigate the matter. I hope this puts your mind at ease and if there is anything else I can help you with please let me know. Yours sincerely, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
