I'm sure you were in a very difficult position, and I make this comment from the comfort of my armchair, but the fact that the dispicable attitude of your Muslim employees towards women was even a factor that operated in your decision smacks of moral cowardice.
My job was not to be morally brave and make inroads against prejudice by standing up for people and not being a moral coward.

It was to run the company in the most efficient, and therfore profitable, manner as possible.

So the answer to your question "If a high percentage of your drivers were racists, would that be a good reason not to hire a black person?" is, sadly, "Yes".


"Difficult....not impossible"
