"They don't not serve gay customers but if you'd like to know his personal view he doesn't think that it's right, That's the same thing with [my] gay clients, I don't dislike them or anything but my job is to promote what they're doing as far as their business [and] career . . . I try to be really honest with people [but] Im not really supposed to say 'morally my company can't do that."
