It's okay for blacks to be in the unemployment line and unable to pay their bills. But when it's whites its a travesty huh?

So do you think it's ok for blacks who are underqualified and undereducated to be given jobs that they're not qualified for?

Free jobs for all!

I know, let's start a dept that sorts and delivers mail, and pays 1000s of people 20-40 hour weeks jobs, full pensions and healthcare for life. Then make taxpayers backstop the liabilities!

Yea, because the legislators that YOU elected would not permit that "dept" to raise rates enough to actually cover their costs. An idiot can see that model would not work. But lets blame the rank and file employees who do NOT make those types of decisions.

It wasn't very long ago that minorities were virtual anomalies in the government and an applicant with a last name that sounded too "ethnic" like Garcia or Rodriguez or Williams or Jackson were immediately thrown in the trash.

The government is full of bad people of ALL races. Plenty of old white men sitting around waiting until retirment. Many retired military who just wanted that double paycheck.

Black people already know they will have to be top notch to get a promotion. Meanwhile, the whites within just promote their friends no matter how idiotic they are and even if they are disliked by the masses.

The worst manager I had was a white woman. No one could stand her, she never knew what the heck was going on and honestly it was obvious she didn't want to be there. There was a Mexican girl in my office that got very bold and told the boss on a daily basis that she sucked. It was a terrible environment and I thank God I got out of there. But I found out that a year after I left, that manager quit.

It is hard to find good help, period. But at least you can reject lighter-skinned unqualified applicants more easily as they will not sue for discrimination.

Yea, all the lighter skinned ones do is whine to high heaven about it and make up speculative excuses about not getting the job.

One is also routinely insubordinate to his WW boss – telling her that certain task are beneath him. It is funny in that, because of staffing and budget slots, we are having to hire younger, hungrier people on term assignments. The terms are mostly women and minorities. They are the ones getting things done. Then after their terms end, we watch them leave and we are stuck with the same lazy a$$ White men.

Signed, a White woman who thinks Whites should stop whining.

ROFL

Who do we hire? Minority vet with a degree in HR from University of Phoenix. The individual can't even run a basic function in excel. The whole department consists of a few competent analysts and a whole bunch of other people who are terrible at their job but were hired by the gov't for one reason or another.

Shame on your hiring panel, HR and manager (signed, a 26 yr. Fed manager).

The individual had the triple crown. Minority, Vet with disability rating, and female. I cringe everytime she tells me she went to school for a year at night to "graduate" with a "bachelors" from Phoenix.

That's nice. But if she didn't have the skills, then you either can nonselect and readvertise, or justify not selecting her. You (your managers & HR) just have to strap their balls on and do the job.

There is no requirement that diversity, etc., requires you to hire unqualified employees. That's a failure of management in implementation.

+1. It puzzles me that folks do not understand this!

STEM fields aside, it is hard only for those who do want to look hard enough!

PP, don't waste your time replying to an idiot

So this White woman needs to her her Master's. LOL

I'm in the same field and agree. The days of advancing with a high school diploma and on the job experience are long gone. Not sure why OP thinks she's an exception to the rule.

Why is this just about "Blacks"? You know that AA's are NOT the only group that benefits from Affirnative Action programs? Why not mention them?

Are you one of those White people that believe that a AA could never be more qualified than you?
