About 150 Muslims were fired from their jobs at a beef processing plant in Colorado for failing to show up for work over a prayer dispute.<br />Last month, a group of 11 workers at Cargill Meat Solutions in Fort Morgan wanted to go pray at the same time in a room in the plant that is set aside for prayer and reflection.<br />Their supervisor asked that the group break up into smaller numbers to not affect production, according to CNN affiliate KCNC.<br />The workers complied with the supervisor's request and went in smaller groups to pray.<br />But after their shift ended, 10 of the 11 workers resigned, turning in their badges and hard hats, Cargill spokesman Michael Martin told CNN.<br />News of the dispute spread to other plant employees, and about 150 Somali workers missed work for three days in protest.
