Christian privilege reaches a new low.

BARTOW COUNTY, Ga. - A prayer vigil was held Wednesday night for a woman who says she’s been asked to stop praying at work.

Nearly 100 people showed up to support “Ms. Barbara,” who has been praying for customers for years at an Ingles store in Cartersville, where she works as a cashier.

“We’re here to support Ms. Barbara. Even though she does not want the publicity, the woman needs to be recognized,” supporter Kurt Viert told Channel 2’s Justin Wilfon.

She was hired to cashier, not to pray with customers. And apparently non-customers were coming to her and getting prayed for as well. There’s a time to do that sort of thing, and it’s not while you’re on the clock. “Ms. Barbara” is one reason why supermarkets are putting in those self checkouts and not keeping enough human cashiers around. She’s not doing her profession—cashiering, not praying—any damn good. Oh, and we all know what would happen if she wasn’t of the dominant religion and offered to pray for people. She would have been turfed long before now.
