You could've called my wife and told her to tell me about this week.
-
I've been so busy this week I never made my picks. I didn't even know it was a Saturday race.
-
Dummies like Tim don't get it.
-
like I said, you dont know sh!t about me. Tell you what, the next time you're in NorCal, @ me. I'd be happy to meet up and "educate" you on how I was brought up. Chances are I won't be vacationing in whatever podunk town you're from. But please, let me know. Because I'd be happy to educate you there.
-
You clearly don't know sh!t about me.
-
Thats because I don't need racist government programs to get ahead.

Having a proven track record of success is the best way to get yourself in front of a HM. Regardless of who you are, where you're from or what color you are. And yes, politics come into play from time to time and, as a white male, I've come out on the wrong side of that equation before. Should I have sued those companies for racism? Missed opportunity on my part, I guess. Because what I did was take my talents to a better company and worked hard for that company and worked my way up within that company. You know why? Because I had the skills, work ethic and drive to make it happen. I didn't blame racist programs like affirmative action. I took my talents elsewhere, where they were rewarded on their merits.
-
That might've been true at one point. It isn't any longer. We all have the same opportunities to succeed in life. Its up to the individual to take advantage of those opportunities and strive to succeed. Some do. Some blame history because its easier than taking responsibility for their own lives and outcomes. Thats where the Dem party comes in to convince them that they are not to blame for their own shortcomings or lack of effort. Its racism that's to blame. And you fan the flames. You should really be ashamed.
-
Talk to the other Tim. I dont know anything about it. I got where I am based on my own hard work and dedication.
-
Clearly. Why waste my time?
-
Nepotism? Its not widespread.
-
I think you're wrong. We've been there. For a while.

What hiring manager would pass on a "more qualified" minority applicant these days? They need their jobs too. Hiring lesser qualified whites, who sh!t the bed, will get them fired. You guys are fighting a decades old war that was over decades ago. Show up to work, on time, everyday, work harder than the next guy, produce better than the next guy, and watch yourself climb that corporate ladder all by yourself. It doesn't matter who you are.
-
In a merit based society we dont need DEI, Precious.
-
The purpose of DEI is to hire a lesser, or, for the sake of argument, equally qualified applicant, based solely on the fact that the applicant you're hiring isn't white. In order to increase the amount of non-white employees employed by the company. That is the sum total of DEI.
-
If the person is qualified, you dont need DEI. For focks sake, what is it you people dont understand? Its clear that some of you have never run a business or been responsible for hiring, and more importantly these days, firing, anybody. ITSATIP: Business owner's want to hire the best qualified person for the position they need filled. Period. It saves them money on training that individual and ensures that person knows wtf they're doing. Taking a flyer on somebody because you dont have enough blacks or women or gheys or mental patients on staff, isn't a sound business plan.
-
Hire dat nigga!
-
I'd bet he'd tell you that. If, in fact, he found the perfect person for the job he was looking to fill for his company, and that person wasn't a white guy, he'd hire em. Mebbe not a jew, though.
-
I see you haven't answered the question either. Why is that?
-
Do you actually believe he would pick a lesser qualified person for the job based on skin color? He's not a big believer in DEI. So I dont think he would do that.
-
I think he'd pick the best qualified candidate. 90's is pretty shrewd.
-
Im not the one who needs to be educated on the intent of DEI policies. HTH
-
Exactly. The cream rises to the top of the bucket. From which everybody is free to scoop. When you force people, by government mandate, to reach below the cream to find and promote certain people based on race, it is the definition of racism.
