Hard to believe it still happens, but it does. True, they don’t want our money, sux because I love the candles, but I will live without.

thanks for the link, it was an interesting clip!

It doesn't, that's the point.

Lols, you so funny spork.

I'm a former human resources director and I used to set policy for dealing with misconduct and termination.

According to the complaint, all of her performance appraisals were good, she had received bonuses, and she had no documented misconduct. After several years of good performance, one alleged phone call, and a termination weeks later, most likely they'll rule in favor of the complainant. There is legal precedent for this.

The plaintiff would have to come up with a strong, serious reason for termination with plenty of witnesses. Otherwise, she would have received a warning for some sort of misconduct rather than being fired. In the absence of serious employee misconduct, it will be assumed that the only reason there could be for the termination is religious discrimination.

We used to clearly document misconduct prior to termination, make sure that similar situations were handled similarly, and give people three warnings prior to a termination. Regardless of whether the phone call went exactly as stated, it was very unwise to fire that employee. If I were in charge of HR for the plaintiff, that regional manager would undergo disciplinary action for terminating a good employee – never mind the lawsuit. Good employees are considered corporate assets.

It's called my money, my right to do whatever I want with it.

Just talking to a company typically doesn't work. It gets you a form letter back telling, just as in this case, that they don't support discrimination blah blah blah.

Speak with your wallet, and you'll always get more appreciable results.

And frankly, if people don't act as one to support wrongdoing against those sharing their discriminated social status, things like this will keep happening and, likely, get worse and worse. If you let these companies keep taking ground, they will not stop.

I do not take my custom to stores where I have been treated rudely or where people I know have been discriminated against. And if it is a chain, I do not shop there again. If it is because of the policy of a manager or regional manager, I complain to the company and do not take my custom there again until the matter has been resolved to my satisfaction. And that is my right because it is my money; I don't have to shop anywhere…I don't even have to have most of the items carried in stores like Bath and Body Works! They aren't necessities, by any stretch of the imagination. They are luxuries, and therefore easily excised from budget.

So before you start going on and on about how people are getting in an uproar over something you don't understand, think about it. Being decisive and acting against a firm clearly discriminatory against our social status will make other firms think twice about this same sort of action. And because of it, perhaps in future we won't have to do this sort of thing.

As for now, however, I see absolutely nothing wrong in supporting someone clearly wronged by an individual in a position of rather high authority who abused that authority and was not reprimanded by the company itself. Since the situation has exacerbated, the only adequate solution will be compensation for the worker fired due to her beliefs and a full apology to all who share those beliefs.

Until then…forget it. I always liked Lush better anyway.

It saddens me that Witches are Wiccans continue to be discriminated against in this day and age, but it happens often, and many of us stay in the "Broom closet" for fear of being persecuted as Miss Uberti allegedly was. We are everywhere walking among you, holding professional jobs, and making a positive difference in this world.

You should be boycotting Bath and Body Works anyway for their involvement in Israel's illegal occupation of Palestine. This should just be another straw.

Just another uneducated person making uneducated remarks. People like this should do their research before making such idiotic remarks.

Is there any sort of an update on this lawsuit?

Yes she was wrongly fired, but if she had not been broadcasting the reason for the trip then she may still have a job. sometimes it’s best not to discuss your religion with someone you know is christian.
