Sure isn't happening around here.

The chief pharmacist, two of his assistants and one of the assistant managers in our local Walgreens are all black. They do good work, I wouldn't care if they were purple with green spots.

Neeley said the EEOC found statistical and anecdotal evidence that African American managers, assistant managers and pharmacists were being assigned to low-performing areas and denied promotions because of Walgreens’ “subjective promotion practices,” he said.

What do you bet that the anecdotal evidence is apocryphal, and the statistics are crap?

I'm thinking the employees probably lived in the area of stores in low performing areas. In which case they should sue their parents or real estate agents.

I just had the most awful experience with a drive thru Walgreen's pharmacist.

It took longer, four hours vs ten minutes down the street.

It cost more, almost double (than down the street).

The pharmacist was a jerk.

Wasn't there a scandal at Walgreen's about pharmacist making outlandish remarks on patient's files?

I was a fool to go there in the first place.

And yet the EEOC does nothing while the Federal Government discriminates against citizens by race.

The DHS will typically make a white male wait up to three years for placement at a GS5 level whereas a resident alien with little to no English speaking ability gets offered a job within 4 months of application, EVEN THOUGH THEY CAN'T PASS THE BACKGROUND TO DO THE JOB, just so long as he has the right color skin or is a woman. And they enter as a GS9.

And despite the tag line, that's NO joke.

If what I just wrote made you sad or angry,
it was probably just a joke.

I wonder what politics are going on behind this. Is this a very common thing for the EEOC to do? Carteroid/Clintonite politicians?
