Well, I haven't read that in depth, but it starts with "
If you have a right to work . . . " (emphasis supplied). As a general matter, no one has a right to a particular job. They do have a right not to be denied that particular job based on their membership in a protected class, but that's a different right. For example, let's say I want to go be a police officer. Presumably, I have the requisite legal knowledge and I'm a reasonably good shot (for a civilian). The local PD can deny membership in the incoming Academy class, because I'm also out of shape. It cannot deny me membership into the incoming Academy class based on my race or my gender. Technically, they can't deny me admission because of my age (over 40), either.
