This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

But it being dependent on the goodwill of your employer leaves the door open to discrimination.
Your boss is a closeted racist and you're a Muslim asking to have an unpaid day off for an Islamic holiday? Refused. You're a white guy asking for a day off to have a long weekend for camping? No problem. You're a Christian they celebrates Easter? Hey, you're off by default!
Everyone should have the same opportunities, no matter their ethnic origin or their religious beliefs, the government should be blind to that.
That's fair. I don't know enough about discrimination laws to speak on whether it already is the case (even where I am), but I agree it should be legislated.
It brings to mind parental leave packages and how employers sell themselves on those, when realistically it would make for a healthier society if strong parental leave was the standard as opposed to an exception.
