Situation AJorge Sánchez sold cell phones at kiosks in shopping malls for VERIZON in Puerto Rico. After six years, Sánchez informed his supervisors that he had become a Seventh Day Adventist and could no longer work on Saturdays for religious reasons. VERIZON responded that his position required rotating Saturday shifts and that his inability to work on Saturdays would cause the company hardship. As a reasonable accommodation, the company suggested that Sánchez swap schedules with others and offered him two alternative positions that would not require work on Saturdays. Sánchez was unable to find workers to swap shifts with him, however, and declined the other jobs because they would result in less income. He began missing work on Saturdays. After a time, VERIZON indicated that it would discipline him for any additional Saturdays that he missed. Eventually, he was placed on active disciplinary status.
Situation B
Cindy Brown worked for Turner Industries Group, LLC, in the maintenance department. She complained to her supervisor that Randy Jones, the head of the department, treated her unfairly.

A month later, Jones confronted Brown, pushing her up against a wall and berating her. After this incident, Brown filed a formal complaint and kept a male co-worker with her at all times. A month later, she was fired.
