Woman Forced To Resign For Saying "God Bless You"

This is a very serious case. A female Toll-taker is suing her boss
after resigning from her job because,she was told not to say 'God
Bless You" to motorists. Cynthia Fernandez said her First Amendment
rights were violated .
She told CBS 2
'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 with benefits and a
cash settlement from the authority .She said that she feels like she's
taking a stand for God.
