I have a female friend who was asked during an interview if she was a lesbian.
She walked out of the door right there.
Just get a short haircut and wear baggy clothing?
It was just her fate
to attract all that hate
right out of the gate
because she is straight.
I thought this story was going to be about the WNBA.
For fifty years the only people you could legally discriminate against is straight white males, and discrimination against them was required by law.
Affirmative action is supposedly no longer allowed, but DEI has taken its place, which doesn’t even bother to hide its agenda to kill all white people. first by digitally assassinating them. Eventually they’ll get around to outright murder.
It happens all the time. I know because I had to sign off on it during my career. Here’s how it works. It’s disgusting but the norm.
Every dept had an unofficial “quota” or maybe the term is looser, let’s say “goal.” Let’s say we needed an African American in a department. Honestly, in some positions they are hard to find. “Joe”, an African American holds the position of “Assistant Director” and he resigns for whatever reason.
Whomever is the hiring manager and HR automatically hold this position open for another African American. Not the best candidate. Not the first available good candidate. Unless Hell freezes over, they will comb the earth of an African American. It could be a woman. A gay person, whatever. Only if a long time goes by and not one appears, can a person of the other type be hired.
The truth is most HR people and managers hate this. Many of us try to resist but that was never possible if you have a woke, DEI obsessed leadership.
I have left the workforce. I would HOPE that with the recent Harvard case which directly affected Admissions , that organizations would stop this discrimination. We will see.
way back in the early 80’s I applied for a job. The HR person said as long as a minority or woman didn’t apply for it, I had a shot. Never heard back.
I 100% agree with you. Wait till Harris-Walz are installed, you ain’t seen nothing yet.
tweak the headline just a tad and yeah, you do.
not that it would make any difference, but that is illegal.
that too, just not as obvious.
yep, that is a no no for anyone to ask that is in management.
or grooming camp
