Aww, Woman quits job after boss stopped her from saying "God Bless You"


Cynthia Fernandez, a toll collector in New Jersey, quit her job last week not long after she was told by her boss not to say "God bless you" to drivers. She has gotten herself a lawyer to sue the boss.

'As they leave, I said, 'Have a good day, God bless you,'He told me he wanted to talk to me, that I couldn't say, 'God bless you,' anymore to customers because somebody might get offended,It does say, 'Provide customer service, smile' – it does say all that,'But it does not say in any line, 'Do not say, 'God bless you.'
 Her lawyer, Greg Noble, said
By saying 'God bless you,' she's expressing herself as a Christian,And if an employer is going to restrain her ability to express herself in that way, not say something based on her religious belief, not disrupting the workplace, that's our concern.'
 She is seeking back pay withbenefits and a cash settlement from the authority, she said that she feels like she's taking a stand for God.
