I agree, while the two cases are comparable in terms of principles, the two women appear to have very different styles and motivations.
Kim Davis didn't want anyone in her office to issue licenses to gay couples, based on Her personal religious beliefs. She went so far as to deny hetero couples licenses in attempt to position her religious beliefs as being more important than the rights of all tax-paying couples in her district.
Charee Stanley, on the other hand, didn't try to deny her customers alcohol at all. She made arrangements to adhere to Her religious beliefs without denying/condemning the ticket-purchasing customers whom she was hired to tend.
In both cases though, if you sign up to do a job and your beliefs change, or the laws change...such that you can no longer do the job to the satisfaction of your employer, get another job.
