In fact, I think they should all get fired! I totally agree. I don't know why they still trying to negotiate with them. I took LIRR this morning (which took an hour on a line to buy a ticket) and then had to walk 20 blocks.

They usually accomodate people who eat kosher. You should definitely ask them. It was not convenient for you to make it to work this morning just like any other employee at your company so you should also be rewarded for coming in despite the inconvenience. And people are really nice and considerate when you request a kosher meal. Just ask. Jewishguy 12-20-2005, 11:37 AM You can request that they order a kosher lunch.
