June 1994 Don't Ask Me When I Will Be Back!

As-Salaam Alaikum, being Muslim, Jummah prayer is very important to me. We live in a culture that is mostly Christian. when I started to work, I made up my mind I would be attending Jummah prayer to be among my Muslim sisters. I explained this to my coworkers and my supervisor. they asked me what time would I be returning. I asked, "Do I call you on Sunday morning to ask what time you will be returning from church? That ended the questioning. Now they know not to schedule meetings or appointments around Jummah prayer. [Rhoda worked for Franklin County.]
