Who Decides the Dress Code, the Employer or Employee?

A muslim woman in England who had been working as a teaching assistant in a school has been suspended for refusing to take off her veil in class.

She did not wear it when she was interviewed (by a man) for the job so I don't see how she can insist that she must wear it around men while she works. The school claims that wearing the veil makes it difficult for students for whom English is a second language to understand her. She says that it hasn't been a problem.

You just want to get me started don't you??? If she interviewed without a veil and it was by at least one man, she should go without the veil.

that's ok. Now that the president can declare anyone in the world, including US citizens, as enemy combatants, us Republifundies can just throw this bizatch in Gitmo.

That goes double for those democrat pederasts like Mark Foley and Dennis Hastert.

Republitard,
Is this the official opinion of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom? If not, posting comments like this from work probably isn't a good idea.
