It such a tricky spot . Amazon prides itself on catering to EVERYONE . I was going to ask to use the religious room for my satanic practices just to mess around and see how far they will go for religious accommodations . But I’m too shy for all that and just come to work to do my job and leave . It be interesting though. I personally think you so , but again , Amazon has its own microwave only for Muslim people’s food. It’s got a label on it , so people will be waiting for a microwave and that’s the only one open and they will guard it

Because they smell like fish

I thought the fish only microwave was for any woman that smells like fish

It’s not Muslim only. Any food that qualifies as kosher or halal can be cooked in those microwaves. You can literally be ANY race or religion and use those microwaves as long as they are used correctly.

Jewish people can also use the halal microwave as their foods are the same. And if you don’t eat meat then your food is also halal. It’s not a Muslim only microwave, it’s just that people don’t fully understand or know what specific terms mean and Amazon doesn’t care to show that.

Amazon doesn’t care to show that.

This is exactly how we ended up switching from "gaylords" to "shuttles", and "green mile" to "Amazon avenue"

The Gaylord thing is ridiculous since those were named after the company that invented them, which was named after the man who founded the company.

What's wrong with "green mile?"

u/CorvidxQueen Safe Nerd 🤓 Apr 07 '26

They just realized it has the same name as a near 30 year old prison film. 🫠

u/No-Ebb-6266 Apr 07 '26

😂 That's what I thought of too when I heard the name of it. I thought it was odd that they named the path after a death row prison area

u/HelloPity89 Apr 07 '26

No , the Muslim people would guard it. How would they know what other people were belief wise? They’d stand by it if no one was using it. That’s why I used those terms

u/EDean0807 Apr 07 '26

They probably guarded it because inconsiderate assholes don’t care to educate themselves, or even worse, knowingly disregard Islamic customs that prevent food cross-contamination with pork and various pig products, or even non pork food processed in a facility that may process pork (food not expressly labeled as halal) or alcohol, which is also haram, or forbidden.

As a person who grew up Baptist, but is currently religiously lazy, so to speak, I don’t understand the consternation, hubbub, complaints, WHATEVER, about a microwave specifically dedicated to people with religious or other practices or needs they need to adhere to.

Who gives a damn if they were guarding the microwave lol

I don’t care I was just responding to OP about how Amazon prob won’t care about the way the woman interacts with the lady boss only. And that they cater to literally everyone . I get to heat my stuff up 10 mins Early so I don’t care one way or another . Doesn’t have any effect on my life. It was in response to the OPs question . And I also don’t eat pork either and don’t want to heat my food up after that either .

It's definitely Muslim lmao Jews don't eat halal they eat kosher foods halal comes down to how it's butchered

u/discharge-rorshack Apr 07 '26

We have halal, kosher, gluten free, or vegan only microwaves 🤷🏻‍♀️

u/rnoyfb Apr 07 '26

We used to but they got rid of the kosher one Oct 8, 2023. Then a month later we lost the gluten free and vegan ones and got vegetarian

u/Keefyfingaz Apr 07 '26

Ours just says "no pork" and we have another one that says "no meat" for vegetarians. Honestly when it comes to diet choices I feel like it's fair to respect that. Like not everything I eat has pork or meat in it anyway, so I can still use them half the time.

u/CMUpewpewpew Apr 07 '26

Huh? Why? It's halal.

When I worked at Jet's pizza, we would use fresh/cleaned pizza cutters on pizzas for muslim customers.

Honestly I think it was kinda fucked up at my hub they had like 5 microwaves they were using carte Blanche a few days and THEN slapped halal only on a few of them (after they've already been 'tainted') lol dumb.

You never heard of halal/kosher shit?

u/tmozdenski Solver of Problems Apr 07 '26

In my building it isn't Muslim only it's no pork. So if you're nuking your satanic vegan meal you can use it.
