You were right!
Salad bar and shipping at a forest fire? If they have reliable access to those, I’d be very surprised. He also probably won’t be able to digest meat after 25 years of a vegan diet, so he’d be putting everyone in danger if he made himself sick at the scene of a forest fire. It’s not like there’s much to forage in that situation, so he just has to choose between hunger and illness.
The court ruled that his moral veganism doesn’t count as a protected belief system (this is in Canada), so when he did sue, they ruled in favor of his employer. I’m not sure why breach of contract didn’t apply, but his right to vegan food would have been protected by the court had he been vegan due to religious beliefs (the example given is Jainism). That’s why the comparison is to a protected belief.
It’s not really possible to arrange his own meals, and they told him they would give him vegan food.
If a person were sent on a work trip where it was impossible to get outside food, and their boss told them they could get them appropriate food, then didn’t, I think they should complain. Especially if it means that they essentially went hungry for weeks while doing a really active job. That’s crappy of their job to do, and they shouldn’t stand for it.
Snacks in the canteen is a totally different deal and I agree that a complaint is not really appropriate, but it’s reasonable to ask if they can supply a broader range of foods.
For context, the story I read a similar comment under was about a decades long vegan forest firefighter who was unable to receive vegan meals through his employer (given that they’re very much “in the field” they can’t really bring their own). After complaining, he was suspended without pay by the employer and he tried to fight that, arguing that his vegan lifestyle was a creed.
That context changes things for me at least, maybe not for you.
Though to be fair, if I had the skills and inclination to do that, there’s not a chance I’d do it normally
And pedophile is ancient Greek for lover of children. I know lots of people who would say they love kids, but it’s simply incorrect to call them pedophiles.
Immigrants are over 15% of the population, of course they commit crimes. 8% of rapes are reported, wanna bet whether they’re more frequently reported when they’re committed by immigrants?
Well, Herr Sellner, perhaps your perspective is slanted. Somehow people still make their opinions heard.
As an immigrant in Germany, people who don’t support immigrants are not cowed by their government, don’t worry. They love to tell me about it. Maybe if you were an immigrant for a day, you would see things differently as well.
I’ve been to the funeral of a 22 year old from a family of true believer born again Christians. It was bizarre. I was the saddest person there and we were only sort of friends. The rest of them honestly believed that he was chilling with Jesus and it would be silly to be sad.
Since then, I’ve noticed that people emphasize the religiosity of the dead when they are trying to reduce their feelings of guilt.
If a man experiences famine as a child, his children’s metabolisms will be different.
It blows my mind that they don’t pick mail up from peoples houses. I live in a city, so it could be different in more rural areas, but I my closest mailbox is almost a half kilometer away.
If you deal with famine, your children and grandchildren will be more efficient at storing energy, is that not the use of a trait?
Epigenetics vindicates a small portion of the theory behind Lamarckism, though there’s still a lot of research to be done to understand the actual mechanisms underlying it
War is a racket.

“Borrowing trouble” is a great phrase :D
Trans women are women and trans men have high T, it’s not necessarily transphobic, just ten other kinds of bigotry
