REL 212 Discussion

Case Study:

The employee, who has been with the company for four years, reads a devotional, morning, noon, and in the afternoon at the desk. It is called Dao de jing (Dow day jing) and the Zhuangzi.( Chuang Tzu) But never reads it when a customer is at the employee’s desk. The recently hired manager fires the employee for reading religious material while on the clock.

What religion does the employee practice? What are some beliefs and practices of this religion?

Did the new manager do the right thing? Why or Why not?

If you are the manager, how would you handle this situation?
