Driver excused from driving bus with gay-themed ad!
Advertisements [?]
MINNEAPOLIS - A city bus driver who complained about a gay-themed ad got official permission not to drive any bus that carries that ad, according to an internal memo confirmed Tuesday by Metro Transit.

Transit authorities call it a reasonable accommodation to the driver's religious beliefs.

:wtf:

You know what?

Where does this stop?

Not gunna drive if the ads are for Planned Parenthood or a certain political candidate or a rap music or Viagra, etc.??

I have an idea: Don't drive a fuckin' bus if you're all sensitive about what the ads might be about!!

You know going into the job that buses carry advertisements.

Nobody is holding a gun to your head forcing you to take the job.

If I drove, I wouldn't like having a Christian Coalition ad on my bus, but I'd deal with it.

So should this idiot.
