But then why have alcohol available if your not going to let people pay for it.

You'd have to ask the store manager, or someone even higher up that question.

[Withano]

Thats not the job for him is it really. Have him stock shelves or sumin.

people might not be able to shop anywhere unless they self serve then because most will probably follow suit eventually the way this country is going. If this is to do with religion and not the age of the person serving then it pisses me off, someone said on here religion has no place in the workplace and I agree. I wish there were no such thing as religion, money and religion is the root of some evil.

So what happens if all available cashiers are Muslim?

[Kizzy]

It is a bit silly, they work in customer service, if you can't serve the customer work in a different part of the store and let someone else do the tills :/

[Suze]

It's ridiculous imo. So can a vegan/vegetarian refuse to handle meat and dairy products when on the tills? Easy way round it I suppose is if people express a right to avoid such tills whether purchasing alcohol or not.

[Littlegreen]

Say for example I was working for them, would they be as accommodating if I as a vegetarian refused to handle meat goods?

I respect religion and a person's faith completely, but the job is to serve the customer.

[Niamh.]

What about handling ham or bacon etc?

[Denver]

Its like Mcdonalds refusing to sell Burgers because the meat isnt halal just because a few members of staff are uncomfortable

[Novo]

He can piss off, the £2 Taurus pear cider comes before Allah

[RichardG]

It's ridiculous bc surely he can touch the bottle

At the same time it's not hard to just walk to the till next to him so idk what to say really

Have you seen the queues at Aldi

[Cherie]

This is the sort of thing that annoys people it's nothing to do with brown skin or religion its the unnecessary bending over backwards

[smudgie]

Nah, if you are so against alcohol then you are already taking a wage from people that sell it.
Either let it through the till or work elsewhere.

[bots]

so what next, vegetarians refuse to sell meat or anything containing animal product. Not selling sweets because it is leading to obesity, not selling condoms because they are anti birth control.

If one group is allowed to not sell something when its freely available in the store and LEGAL, then they shouldn't be in that role.

Is it not just because he's under 18

Well Aldi have given a statement, and not mentioned that is the reason. So my guess would be the reason is something different to that.

They do that in my local shop

[y.winter]

This is really ridiculous. If someone can't handle the basic requirement of his job, it's their own issue. The costumers shouldn't be "punished" for it.

[T*]

If you don't want to do the job then you shouldn't apply for it, it's a tad messy

[Daniel-X]

A mess, don't apply for the job if you're uncomfortable with it and let it go to someone else who won't inconvenience the customers.

Exactly. I tried bloody applying for Aldi and they fookin rejected me in the middle of an automated online questionaire bc I must have ticked the wrong box. But this guy gets a job at one of their stores but he can't even do the job properly
