Yeah ive seen them pray,(boy was i tempted to kick them up the ars e when they bent over) 5 times a day. 25 minutes lost, and they still had lunch and smoko. they made ME take up the slack.

mate, do u work 24 hours? since it's 5 times a day over a whole day, if u work like me - 9am to 5pm then only two prayers fall during that time and one of those prayers is during the lunch break.

so technically, ur only losing 5 minutes a day, which isn't much when u consider people who go for coffee or cigarette breaks. if it's an issue for you, if ur their superviser then u can insist they make up for the lost time.

They prayed when they got there (8am) then 11am , 1:30pm, 3:00pm. well thats four.
the boss was one of them so how could i ask? I quit after 2 months.

well, here's a tip for you if u ever work with one in the future - muslims are supposed to pray 5 times a day over the whole day - only two of those prayers fall during the hours u described.

if they were praying 4 times, then they were obviously milking it to get some extra time off.

well, i guess my situation is different, i am their supervisor and it's hard enough getting skilled personnel considering my type of work has a shortage of qualified staff in the industry. so i would cater to anyone who is qualified and willing to work for me, regardless of their ethnic or religious background.

Well Gavin, if they only take 5 minutes during THEIR lunch break, don't ask for any special favours, like five minutes extra for their lunch breaks, or prayer rooms like they have at Universities, then I see no problems with it. So long as your place of employment doesn't mind a jack-@ss on the ground crying out for Allah to save him.

What category does your profession fall under anyway? Labourer? Customer Service?

It largely depends on what position is up for grabs. I highly doubt Muslims who pray five times a day would be suitable for high pressure jobs like food and beverage and customer service. Especially ones in confined spaces.

they don't ask for special favours, they pray during their lunch break. we don't have a special room set aside for it, but they usually just use a meeting room that isn't booked by anyone else - the room's empty anyway, so it doesn't affect anyone's work.

i'm operate an accounting firm - if ur not aware, there's a huge shortage of qualified accountants at the moment. the two guys at my work that are muslim are both qualified accountants and they generate alot of income for my company with their services.

food & beverage/customer service is huge pressure?? please, try comparing that to an actual profession like accountancy - especially during the busy season (July - November).

Oh please... don't try and turn this into a 'praise Muslims for the income they generate' post. Roll Eyes

you can get accountants from any culture/nationality. Unnecessary.

Give me a break. Roll Eyes

Food and beverage is a high pressure job. Customer service can be depending on how busy the place is. Accountancy is ... what... business mathematics? Roll Eyes
