Man fired for refusing to wear a 666 sticker

[PLC1]

He was afraid to wear the mark of the beast.

Billy E. Hyatt claims he was fired from Pliant Corp., a plastics factory in northern Georgia near Dalton, after he refused to wear a sticker proclaiming that his factory had been accident-free for 666 days. That number is considered the "mark of the beast" in the Bible's Book of Revelation describing the apocalypse.

So, they fired this guy because of his religious beliefs, really?

Seems to me there could be more to the story, but maybe not.

Considering the plant location , its a pretty stupid choice of which day to so mark. Safety is great and should be celebrated but 666 in Dalton GA ? What were they thinking ?
