Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
I was vegan for a few years and from personal experiences I can say that eating meat/dairy after months/years of a strictly vegan diet will fuck you up gastrointestinally. Your body just doesn't have the same gut fauna anymore that was able to digest animal products. It would be hard to expect someone to fight a fire while they are experiencing cramps, bloating, and gastrointestinal distress.
Then the business decision comes down to whether supporting your dietary restrictions costs more or less than releasing you and hiring someone else.
