[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m still struggling to adjust.  Anyone else? [/quote]

Yes. I've hit a wall and I'm going to submit a religious accommodation request. [/quote]

What religious accommodation request would allow you to work from home??[/quote]

I think the answer has to be "none of your business" - people's religion and how they celebrate it needs to be off-limits if agencies are authorized to accommodate. They don't get to be all in the details. [/quote]

Well, I personally would like to know. I’m Catholic- can I WFH in Good Friday in order to attend services? I was previously attending morning weekday mass a couple days per week too and I can’t since RTO.

But it seems kinda nuts if I could WFH to attend mass but not a doctors appt.  Maybe I could schedule appts the same days I attend mass- is that an acceptable workaround you think?[/quote]

Yes, you can TW to attend morning mass. Someone in my agency just got TW several days a week to attend morning mass. Takes leave for that time or makes up the time later in the day.

I’m Catholic and have some very religious family members. Most attend mass every single morning. Would they seriously get telework daily because of this? [/quote]

Yes, they would. Look at the new policy.[/quote]

Why can’t they just drive in after mass?[/quote]

They could, but they don’t have to. [/quote]

They would have to use leave for the mass and then drive in and start the work day afterwards or make up the time by staying later. This administration doesn’t want them to have to do that. So they can TW.

Now the next question is why don’t the same apply to working parents if this administration wants more kids? I have to makeup the time or use leave for dropping kids at school and getting into office later than I would otherwise. 
But I guess they want more kids but non working women. [/quote]

The administration does want more kids. They just want to provide accommodations to working parents who go to church and have daily prayers. [/quote]

So only Islamic and Catholic parents?

No Protestants have daily church services. [/quote]
