3. woman denied job at careno clinic in allen, tx for wearing hijab to interview
i was offended for this woman when i read this article in the mckinney news paper. people's minds no longer judge and look at a person for their skills and ability, but rather the assumptions they can make from the person's appearance. you must be mentally unfit if you can catagorize a woman's hijab, a scarf worn over the head for religious reasons in muslim culture, as a hat and even moreso render it against your dress code. grow up and familarize yourself with other cultures and remove your large nose from the depths of your anus.
