We Know What's Best For The Little Woman

By way of [livejournal.com profile] vixyish: Read, and read. And then, after you're done throwing up and gnashing your teeth and cursing these fucking evil moron Puritan babysitter wannabes to the skies, act, and act.

ETA: Honestly, gang, while I appreciate you asking if you can copy a link, you can pretty much assume that if I put the links up here and tell you to go do something about them, [a] they're reasonably safe, at least on a browser/system security basis, and [b] it's okay to copy 'em to your own LJ or wherever. Dang, but I've got a polite buncha friends. :)

"Attempting to get a job that has duties you will not perform is completely different from having a job and suddenly being told you have new duties that are objectionable."

The former means that you're a jackass. The latter means that you have a choice between resignation and compromising your beliefs. So, yeah, they're different, but not in a way that has any bearing on the issue at hand.

The choice belongs to the employer ("You don't want to do the job I hired you to do? Don't let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya."), as it should.
