oh paleez! if she answered her questions honestly at her 'interview'???? all airlines ask about varying shift work, and if she answered no, she wouldn't have ever gotten hired in the first place. im jewish too, and i worked many a sabbath, rosh hashanah, yom kippur, passover, chanukah etc. if you don't want to work, or can't work these days then find a job that will accomodate you.

Totally agree with you. I am sure she knew the work schedule when she applied and she would have been advised of it in an interview. See as you said we can agree on occasion.

sure she did..typical of this country right now..everyone wants..but no one is willing to give to get it..typical and get used to it..the worst is yet to come..let's take away from people who have worked hard all their lives to reward people who wouldn't know what work is if it bit them in the ass
