This is insane. Adam Carolla applied to be a firefighter in LA and had to wait SEVEN YEARS to get called back for an exam because he wasn't black, hispanic, or a woman.

That was in the 1990s.

Only 6% of new hires of S&P 500 companies are white males.

Almost like … discrimination or something?

I applied (during the Bush 43 administration) to be a FLEO. I had to wait just after 4 years for on offer.
These days, I’d have never gotten hired, as I’m a White Male. We (my unit, 38 ppl) haven’t hired a white male in 7 years. In fact, the new hires often mention that there were no whites at all in their classes.
Time to pay the wages for perceived sins, honkeys. You’ll be punished for injustices never committed by you on behalf of those you never knew for injustices visited upon those who never experienced it.

He should have identified as a bull dyke. Hired on the spot.

Carolla was 19 in 1983 so the DIE in LA was going on then.
Under a different name no doubt.

Who are these white people of which you speak? Are those the people that appear occasionally in TV commercials?

Before the Test Corolla asked the Black man next to him when he applied. The Black man applied the previous November.

He asked the Black woman on the other side when she applied.
‘Thursday’, she explained.
