Sounds like a good case based upon the facts alleged.

have to say for all the things someone would sue a timeshare system for, that wasnt on my bingo card.

While there are a lot of frivolous religious claims I've seen made in the past, this one seems like there'd be no real way around them getting in trouble. Is it really an undue burden to have someone you could schedule Sundays when many more religious people would want off in exchange for the Saturdays off? This is more IMHO due to probable horrible scheduling like I used to get way back when I worked for Best Buy. They just don't want to have fixed scheduling, but grab employees randomly each week. I always hated that, and always figured if you couldn't figure out fixed schedules then you were just bad at running a business. It's not like these places are having unexpected hours - they have the same hours they're open for years at a time. I have yet to see (granted, not MVC) packed presentation locations - and so maybe you occasionally have to offer someone a Monday presentation rather than a Sat one or something IDK...

Also, I personally have never been offered a Saturday presentation. With FRI-SAT-SUN being the usual check in days, these would seem to be the worst time to get people in. Being that they accommodated them previously and then stopped when management changed, MVWC seems to be facing a very uphill battle.

I'm not so sure about this...likely depends on the terms of employment when hired. And this is a role that cannot be reasonably expected to NOT work on a specific weekend day. She likely should have found a different place of employment that was not open on Saturdays. Just because they tried to be accommodating in the past doesn't change that.

If I were still a every-week-church-attending-Catholic, I sure wouldn't take a job at a restaurant that specializes in Sunday brunch.

Why not? You are not the sole employee there. So "every-week-church-attending-Catholic" can't work anywhere that happens to be open Sunday? Others could work the Sunday brunch.

Why can't a timeshare salesperson work Sunday-Friday? What is the burden on the employer if this particular employee doesn't work on Saturdays? "Terms of employment" cannot override federal employment law.

The only thing in your post that makes sense is that you are "not so sure about this." That is very obvious.

 

[dioxide45]

There was a June 2023 Supreme Court ruling on this. Though that was for a postal worker, but I understand the standard applies to all employers.

Justices rule in favor of evangelical Christian postal worker

Federal law bars employers from discriminating against workers for practicing their religion unless the employer can show that the workers religious practice cannot reasonably be accommodated without undue hardship. The […]

Years ago when I worked at a large Boston company our hours were strictly 8:20-4:30, M-F. The girl who sat at the desk in front of mine was Jewish and she was the only person I knew there who had a unique schedule - during the winter months when leaving at 4:30 would get her home to Brookline after dark, on Fridays she worked 7:30-3:30. She knew, though, that the concessions made for her would be rescinded if her work suffered. She was serious about it so it never was a problem.

I can’t imagine any company ignoring religion-based needs of good employees if concessions are possible. It’ll be interesting to learn, if we ever do, whether Marriott just blatantly became un-accommodating for no good reason, as the lawsuit seems to allege, or if something else was in play.

Note that the EEOC left this plaintiff to fend for themselves, issuing only a "right to sue" letter. Again, the EEOC's bringing suit in the case that is the subject of this thread is not normal. I suspect the administration is trying to send a signal to MAR and missed the mark due to its likely ignorance that hurting the bottom line of MVW/MORI (both traded under VAC) won't touch MAR. I would not be surprised if many at MAR were delighting in the suspected confusion.

Methinks your conspiracy theory has run astray. And no, a RTS Letter is issued at the request of a claimant, it is not forced on the claimant by the reviewing agency. So in the instant case, the claimant must not have requested a RTSL and it was investigated by the EEOC after referral from the FL state agency.

Everything (other than the filing of the complaint) occurred prior to "the current administration" being elected. This case is most likely being handled by a career EEOC attorney that has not yet been purged.

10. Pursuant to the Worksharing Agreement between FCHR and the EEOC,
the Charge was duly-filed with the EEOC on or around July 18, 2023.
11. On or around July 11, 2024, the Charge was transferred to the EEOC
for processing.
18. On September 16, 2024, the EEOC issued a Notice of Conciliation
Failure to Marriott Vacations.

Aside from the wacky conspiracy theory, the complaint has a lot of detail on how sales works, which I presume will be of great interest to TUGGERS. I've started a separate thread to discuss those practices, as this thread will likely go off the rails and be shut down.

You clearly have never practiced this area of law, have never worked for the federal government and are wildly out of touch with what is going on in DC. Find one other case where the EEOC has filed a complaint like this, or don't. The EEOC action is the only thing that matters here. It is highly unusual and there is no way it was initiated by a career attorney without political direction.

To elaborate (not sure why I am even bothering), the current very open direction to the EEOC is "abandon race and gender claims and focus on religion." Part of greater agenda about which the administration is being fully transparent. Ask anyone you know with any connection to the administration (guessing nobody) and they will proudly own it.

And the "Marriott" target is perfect for the agenda they feel the people voted for. They believe society has focused too much on discrimination based on race and gender and not enough on discrimination based on religion, so they are making an example out of a company that recently said it valued diversity to highlight how they feel that religious freedom has been ignored by those who proclaim tolerance and respect for all.

I am making no judgment here and believe that all administrations select enforcement actions that are consistent with whatever they perceive their mandate to be.

 

[rcdcowner557]

Again, not sure why I am bothering, but a right to sue letter is issued as a matter of course when the EEOC does not initiate a case, which is what happens in virtually every case like this. The claimant does not have to request it and it is not forced on anyone. It is just routinely issued as part of the regulations implementing Title VII.

If anyone is interested in this topic, look up the Feb 6 2025 Executive Order with the title "Eradicating Anti-Christian Bias."

 

[SueDonJ]

As moderator: No matter how much we want to attribute politics to *any* topic, the TUG Rules are clear: "Avoid posting about politics." All further political comments/posts and any further responses to political comments/posts will be deleted. Also, bringing MAR into the fray to shore up an opinion based only on politics isn't helpful considering that the EEOC charges only MVW and MORI, so let's leave MAR out of it until/unless the principals introduce it.

As a TUG participant like anyone else here: I agree with Brian, this wasn't something that was ever on my list of reasons to sue a timeshare company but still I'm interested to see where it goes. I want to know what allowances were made that granted concessions to the employee at one time, whether and what constraints were on those allowances, what was the particular "change in management" that the EEOC alleges is the reason the allowances were rescinded, and whatever else is in play. Do any of the legal eagles here have access to any directly-related filings?

{eta} Nevermind, I see it linked in @davidvel's other thread. Hmmmm.

The facts of this case and filing make obvious that the train was rolling down the tracks toward a lawsuit almost 2 years ago, with the claimant having no private attorney. The EEOC was pursuing her claim long before the last quarter of 2024. She never retained an attorney to file a private suit. They are not going to abandon her and not file suit after MVC didn't settle.

The EEOC has hundreds of these in the pipeline at any given time. They are very selective about those they act on.

Seriously? How many of those cases involved a single employee complaint based on religious discrimination against a Christian? ZERO. Look up EEOC statistics - they file suit in 0.2% of the complaints that go through the agency. Yes, 2/10 of 1 percent. Just keep telling yourself this is business as usual. It is of no import to me.

Thank you. I stand corrected and am sending this on to those who crafted the Feb 6 2025 Executive Order. This discussion is an excellent example of a situation where someone on the Internet gave me new information. I thought I was immune to the disinformation, but I did not question the premise of the E.O., which certainly causes me to pause and reflect anew. Thanks to all for what was a productive discussion for me.

ZERO? So you read every complaint? And you are citing a single complaint against Marriott for a claim filed before the current admin by an unrepresented person as your beacon of truth supporting your crazy thoughts? At least you factless conspiracy nutjobs are consistent. Looney ideological opinion first, reality never.

See my response above. Nobody has ever called me a conspiracy nutjob, and I believe your readiness to throw that label out speaks volumes about you, none of which is positive. You strike me as one of those on here who is never willing to admit when you are wrong or have lept to an incorrect conclusion. If you search threads where we have both participated, you will find at least one where I corrected you, and rather than acknowledging it, you just bulldozed along into another thread. Of course I have received messages offline that some of the most prolific posters are those who one should ignore because their identity is wrapped in this site. I don't work that way and actually engage in discussion without any agenda.

I have spent a few hours on here today, and it has been, as always, fascinating. Before logging off, I am just following up on this thread. Responses to my correspondence have been interesting. I own my guilt in being a "secular lib" who never questioned recent assertions that the EEOC paid no attention to claims filed by Christians.

With that said, there are a lot of chess players in Washington, D.C.. Accordingly, I stand by my assertion that action decisions in all those cases where the EEOC initiates actual litigation based on the hundreds (thousands) of complaints that are in the pipeline at any given time are made by C-Schedulers and never by Career.
