I already said he is entitled to express his opinion by refusing to work. I don’t agree with him though. i still don’t know why you brought Muslims and Jews into it. is it really that difficult to understand??? its an example nothing more, nothing hidden, its a situation like many others where people dont want to do something due to belief.

It wasn't even a logo, just some pretty coloured numbers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might also like to try entering the 21st century. There is not enough information in the story.We don't know how long this driver has been employed by this bus company. He may have may years service and an exemplary work record for all we know. He could have simply been repulsed by being seen driving the bus with pride overtures on the side, especially if he was a religious man. As for entering the 21st century, I was already in my mid 50s at that point in time and seen a few things, how old were you in 2000 AD , I wonder?

Annie Bynnol Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 It just goes to prove that its not what is on the outside(of the bus) that counts, it's what it is on the inside (driver). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you think he was a Christian - who therefore refused to drive it on religious principle - and instead of just condemning that you drew a comparision with muslims and bacon? Even though muslims and bacon have nothing to do with the story? Don't you think that's strange? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His job is to drive a bus. He refused because the number was rainbow coloured. That’s not acceptable. If he can’t do his job, he needs a new one. No need for the personal stuff, by the way. It doesn’t reflect well upon you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
