I gave that civil rights example as a way of making it really simple to understand the difference between being employed to provide a service, and having your own civil rights. But you already knew that.
I suppose then it depends on whether you're talking about civil rights, legal rights or moral rights. I personally was talking about moral rights and, as far as that goes, he had every right to do whatever he wanted to do. In fact, key here is that he didn't "do" anything - he simply refused to do something. And in my opinion, every person has the right to refuse to be involved in anything that they are not comfortable being involved in. As I said, had he grabbed a drink out of her hand - that would be imposing his morals. Refusing to PROVIDE her with a drink is simply refusing to compromise his own morals.

Whether or not his boss would / should / must fire him for his actions is completely irrelevant to that fact. It's his choice to do what he wants with his mind and body: he didnt want to pour her the drink so he absolutely did not have to. Risking his job is his decision to make.
