The case here is Stanley v. ExpressJet Airlines Inc., in the Sixth Circuit — it's actually a fairly complex question because flight attendants are almost all union (AFA-CWA) and airline employment is governed by the provisions of the Railway Labor Act. But the upshot is no, the flight attendant lost.

According to the Republican Supreme Court, only right wing 'Christians' have recognized 'conscience rights.'

If not serving alcohol is a Big DealTM to you, you probably shouldn't take a job that routinely involves serving alcohol.

Yes, just as if you're an anti-abortion medical doctor/surgeon in a position that might require you to perform an abortion, you should probably be doing something else.
