[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - I know talking religion at work is taboo. In my case I took a job at a great company in NYC founded by observant Jews. 95 percent senior mgt team was Jewish. I then hired a Jain and Hindu. They would book meetings on Yon kipper and other major Jewish holidays. Late afternoon meetings day before Passover. I had to mentor the two of them. Crazy little things like the C level boss send us all Xmas cards and I sent one back, the one Indian girl said I don't respond Xmas cards as not Christian. I told her our Jewish boss who just approved your $60,000 bonus not Christian either he just did it to be nice. I load up the Microsoft Outlook full calendar with all holidays. I do an annual plan for projects and assign work, I have Muslims, Jewish, Catholic, Jehovah Witness's you name it working for me. I put the Hindu in charge of staff lunch once and she did it on a Friday in Lent that was also Passover week. What a mess. Like a lunch in the Muslim Fasting month was another. Maybe a birthday cake Jehovah Witness. So I ended up being a religious mentor to two Hindus. It is common sense to me [/quote] I cannot believe that you have been given authority over other people and are abusing these employees this way. How ignorant are you?[/quote] Hardly abusing. If the boss is observant, allows and respects non-Jewish holidays, believes everyone has a right to their own religious holidays telling staff to avoid booking a big meeting during High Holidays is good career advice. Plus I have staff making 200k-250k a year they can listen to a story or two. I love their stories. My favorite is Jain Thanksgiving story from one staff first year in county. Good stuff. You have to enjoy wild misconceptions about religion. Like the poster who thinks Catholics are canibals [/quote]
