aniweis me hudee and winni headed down to town today to look for a part time job. our attemps were unfortunately futile. there were either no part time jobs or the job is not flexible enough to allow their employers to wear the headscarf. i really do not understand the basis of this. what's wrong with wearing the headscarf while doing a front line job. so far, i have not come across anybody who could give me a very good explanation for this. if you want to talk about uniformity, why cant the headscarf part of a uniform. i mean a substantial number of muslim girls adorn the hearscarf. singapore preach so much about acceptance and toerance, but why is the malay headscarf and exception. it's just a piece of cloth that a muslim girl places on her head. i dun think its symbol affects the position tt the girl is asking for in a company. if it does how? im quite frustrated. i know that there are jobs which allow their female muslim employers to wear the headscarf but i just do not get it why some companies are still hesitant about it.
