Just the other day, I got a job offer. The financial part was definitely a lot better than the one I've already got. Yet, when I found out that I had all the requirements and that the director was ready to welcome me into the company, I also found out something else, something quite disappointing. This company, being an international one, had a policy for female workers not to wear headdress (known as "jilbab") while working. I refused in an instant to take it off. It's a matter of personal belief and principle. Besides, what's that got to do with my performance or competency or even my being?
Before that day, I've only heard or read about discrimination. Now that I've experienced it myself...Man! IT IS UNFAIR to the truest sense.
