People need to hold Walgreens to the fire for this, it's an absolute bullshit policy that requires zero justification from the employee. They can just say it's against their beliefs and the company does not question it at all

The zealots don't want people using contraceptives or getting abortions, they want to punish women for "opening their legs" because to them sex is some divine thing.

To be clear, I was just setting the record straight with that one poster. There is nothing wrong with making this topic, and nothing for you to apologize for. It would be one thing if there was an identical topic on the front page(50/50) right now, but there isn't.

This stuff needs signal boosting at times.

I read the article, and Walgreens says that the employee is required to find a different employee to complete the transaction for him.

They should absolutely be fired.

If your personal beliefs prevent you from doing your fucking job then you need to get lost and work somewhere else.

Your job is to provide the costumers with the products your employer sells. If you refuse to do that fuck off.

Maybe you cheap fucks should just go pass around a plate and beg for money like at church since you cant even do a basic over the county job at a pharmacy

Fucking clown ass bitch acting like the entire world revolves around your dumbass personal beliefs.

Kick rocks bitch.

Their right wing governor signed the paperwork to make WI a "right to work" state a few years ago. The employee can be fired at any time for any reason (or no reason at all)

Condoms are behind the counter in locked cases in a lot of stores here...
Also, what if there's no self checkout?

If he/she refuses the money, calling police for shoplifting?

They dont have to refuse the money. You paid for the product. Whether they want to ring it up is irrelevant.

stores have values they have to call the police for, any basic shoplifting under that value (typically 100 dollars) theyre not gonna do anything but possibly ban you from the store

A Muslim who cared wouldn't get a job as a pork butcher or selling booze in the first place.

What exactly is it that you are not understanding here. You put money on the counter and thus a transaction has been made.

Im fine with the employee not selling them, but only so long as another employee is available who is willing to sell them immediately.

Otherwise, fuck no. One employee cannot hold everyone else hostage.
