I agree that an employer should be able to hire anyone they want and restrict whatever lifestyle choices they want. However I think we should let them know that this type of thinking disgusts us. Like Lebell pointed out, eventually they will restrict any and all activities that their accountants consider unhealthy or may have some risk. Heck, they may even make me trade in my Harley for a Volvo, LOL.
