Try to follow these simple rules to avoid race based hate this holy Ramadan!

It's not OK to eat in front of Muslims

Most don't get offended if you eat food or drink in front of them. Some do.

Understand that fasting is tiring, your Muslim co-workers will be physically unable to work as hard as normal.

If possible, allow them to leave work early in order to break their fast or try assigning them work that won't be too physically exhausting.

Halitosis
Not eating food or drinking water can leave people with really bad breath. This is why most Muslims will stand further away from you during conversation.

Please post any other top tips for surviving this 'rama!

if something is not halal that means it is not edible and therefor not technically food, so keep a big stash handy to be polite.

There are not one hundred people in the United States who hate The Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they wrongly perceive the Catholic Church to be.


1. Pay the jizya
2. Die

There were two Muslims at my old job last year during Ramadan and they seemed perfectly fine and took no time off for it. One of them was really chill and would have fun conversations with me about the differences between Judaism and Islam, since I'm a disgusting Jew.

wouldn't fasting as a "thing" be cultural appropriation, though?

ramadan is to give you perspective about how much it sucks to be poor and not have the luxury of eating and drinking whenever you please, whatever month is falls upon doesn't matter because the poor never get that choice.

Except they have feasts and poo poo after sundown. So it's more like not eating a lot all day because you're going to a bad-rear end BBQ later. Every day. For a month.

ramadan is not hard, unless you're working construction or something outside, then I have no idea how those guys do it without some medical issues. muslim majority places slow way down and are sympathetic because everybody is fasting, but if you're in the USA or something and you work manual labor and ramadan is in summer...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Pro-tip: stock up on dates for breaking your fast. Not the cheapo kind from the baking aisle either. Spring for the fancy soft ones that come in a plastic box in the produce section.

Aw yeah nice dates you got here
