“... you instinctively under-estimate the level of discrimination”
Meanwhile half of the federal employees are affirmative action hires. Do not talk to me about discrimination.
Most black people can barely read and write, let alone even speak proper English. There is a reason why they cannot find suitable employment.
They blame whitey for all their problems while doing nothing to educate themselves.
it’s worse than that. in DC, they had minority-only bidding rules for contracts. that means ONLY minority-owned companies could submit and win bids for government contracts.
the problem was that there were virtually no REAL minority-owned companies that could do the work required. so a bunch of black insiders from DC government went out and started forming shell companies that existed only on paper. they would win the contracts and then subcontract out the work to real companies that were forbidden from bidding on the contracts (because they weren’t minority owned). the work got done, but the black insiders who didn’t do any of the work, skimmed off a healthy percentage of the contract cost for themselves. in short, lots of them got really rich off the taxpayer for doing nothing other than being born black.
I can affirm that blacks are, 99% of the time, the first kids in a class to act out. They comprise the vast majority of kids wandering the halls cutting class. With a few bright exceptions, they have poor records of turning in homework or projects. They frequently handicap their academic success by having out-of-wedlock babies while teens themselves. As a consequence of their not trying their best to excel academically and social promotion, their writing and computational skills are poorly developed. However, their academic failure is the fault of the teacher, don't you know.
They continue this sort of behavior post high school, excuses having been made for their poor behavior for their whole lives.
And then, they are the first to rail against the white man for lack of opportunity. How about they look in the mirror for that person to blame? I've seen this played out way too many times, from the above-described classroom behavior to the results. I am not impressed.
You pretty much nailed it. It may be generational, but my much younger coworkers are not well read or inquisitive. They can produce a heckuva power point, so long as the spell check is operational.
My military experience clouded my vision, because I worked with people from all races and creeds. We had each other's backs, as it should be.
I was talking to this AA at the medicare call enter yesterday. She was no wizard, but at least after a half hour she agreed with my situation and forwarded my paperwork up the line. Her phone skills were severely lacking, but I have hope that my situation will be corrected.
