Been speaking to an independent pharmacy owner about a possible opportunity but have come to find the owner is a bit of a religious zealot. I'm not religious primarily due to being the product of a science education which has pounded into my head not to believe in anything that isn't verifiable. I did a sort of "interview" via email and I think some of my responses may have skirted the issue. One of them was "comment on our mission statement"- it touched on God or religion 3 times in 3 lines. Hard not to mention it or pretend you didn't notice it. I've also been warned that the store plays religious music all day (as opposed to muzak- not sure which is worse...). It's a VERY religious community and since he's independent he can do what he likes. But in my retail chain days we were forbidden to do anything which indicated religion for fear of offending anyone ("happy holidays, etc.). Is there an inherent problem working for him with such different views? Just curious to hear if anyone else has made something like this work or if such a pairing is doomed to failure from the start....
