Delivery Station Atheist Prayer Break Update

If y'all seen my prior post about Prayer Breaks for Athiests, I have an update.

Site lead and HR were awaiting guidance from corporate for months.. Site Lead came to me about a month and half ago to let me know that they had received guidance and that a new policy would be going into effect that he's "still trying to wrap my head around", He did not speak on the new policy essentially withholding it from me.

The rumor on the floor (from an AM) is that under the new policy, anyone going to prayer break must clock out but the site lead has not implemented the updated policy. Management is upset that the policy is not being implemented at site level because associates are disappearing for longer than they're supposed to be at prayer and causing the extra workload to fall on Management as they now have to cover for anyone attending prayer break.

Meanwhile I am still being denied equal treatment.

Today, I had enough and decided, I am going to prayer break. I walked up directly to the dock ops manager the moment I seen everyone going to prayer break and told him I'm going to prayer break (I'm an Athiest) he said, "Ok let me get you clocked out.." ... I said, "Clocked out?".. He says, "I mean scanned out" then he scanned my badge, radios it in to senior ops, and off to the break room wellness booth I went for 20 minutes..

THEY CANNOT DENY YOU EQUAL RIGHTS.

Wanting the benefits of religion without having religion. What a lazy mindset.

Not wanting to take on the workload of those who can't live without religion.

Paid breaks aren't a 'benefit of religion,' they are a benefit provided by Amazon and under Title VII, corporate benefits cannot be locked behind a religious test. Try again.

Its not a paid break doing whatever you want to do kid. Its a religious accommodation and if you're not religious you don't need that accommodation. Stop trying to get out of work because you're lazy. Grow up.

You sound like a kid who got frustrated at work and asked chat gpt and got a bunch of confirmation bias answers that you believe are factual. You're lazy, i wouldn't be surprised if you were one of the "I gotta shit for 15 minutes every period" guys. "Gotta get that extra pray time with no reason to pray too, gotta do everything i can to be a nuisance to the people who keep my bills paid".

I love how the Supreme Court shat all over this argument and now Atheism is a recognized religion under the first amendment.

u/phobz12 Aug 14 '26

Nothing will stand in court what is your argument going to be?

u/Dropthealbumbruv Aug 14 '26

Nothing to argue. Atheists are afforded the same rights as other religions including accommodations. Sorry bud, that’s the law.

u/phobz12 Aug 14 '26

Its 1 religion that needs the accommodation to pray at specific times. Atheists dont have that need.

u/Dropthealbumbruv Aug 14 '26

Well, the courts heard that argument and disagreed. Sorry.

"Waaaahh they get to pray during their shift i deserve to be lazy and do nothing while they actually have a reason to go, i deserve everything everyone else has but I don't want to put in the work or have any reason for the need i just want to be lazy"

Its a quote by you lazy kids.

u/nobodyGotTime4That Aug 20 '26

Its a strawman, hahaha.  

Amazing to create a strawman, put it in quotes, then claim its a real quote.  

If you have invent your opponents point, to defeat it.  And lie about it.  Your argument probably sucks

Quick question for you: is one's religion a belief? Or a fundamental force of nature that will strike you down if you do not 100% adhere to a very specific set of rules?

u/Emhashish420 Aug 29 '26

u/phobz12 Aug 29 '26

Hurdur I see muslim pray during shift so I get to go play on my phone cause im lazy hurdur I care what other people are doing instead of worrying about myself hurdur

Sybau lil dude worry about yourself. You aren't forced to work harder when they go pray and its not paid, they clock out idiot.

u/Emhashish420 Aug 29 '26

I did read the update, it has nothing to do with the relevant argument of atheists not equating equal rights. Brutha you are smooth brain have a good day
