Contractors don’t give a crap what color you are,
can you do the job or not? They hire for the bottom
line. Get ‘er done on time, under budget, with
quality results.
You have to wonder what educational qualifications one must meet to get a journalism degree these days. Can't be much other than being able to print your name. Bet most of them don't even know how to write in longhand, let alone read it.
I did a lot of historical research on the Civil War, as a hobby. Spent quite a bit of time in libraries, historical societies, the National Archives, among the list. Having been born in 1947, we had to learn how to read and write longhand/script. Had I not been able to read longhand, I never would have been able to do the research I did, because every, single record from the Civil War was in longhand.
Also Onondaga Reservation. We have Oneida in my neck of the woods. They run the Turning Stone casino among others in the area.
All that matters is fairness and equality they say which comes down to the color of your skin. So much for MLK’s speech on content, character and the color of ones skin
They can claim minority AND majority status? Perfect place to be.
Here in NJ you’d just see a line of five black men and white women waving the traffic flags (whereas before you’d see one at each “end” of the project to control traffic). They wear their costumes (immaculate hard hats and boots), and stand in clusters watching the white men operate the machinery and hand tools. The costs of these tokens is the unwritten “diversity tax”, and impacts businesses everywhere. I’ve noticed at my job there seems to be a “Y=2X” policy at work, where each retiring old white man are replaced with two females (not much younger) who have been cast off by other companies as useless - and combined they still don’t deliver the same results (but they lighten the load for us real workers because we can shorten our hours to match theirs).
The diversity tax is observed by companies to fend off lawsuits and the government to maintain the façade of assimilation and an integrated workforce; no amount of pushing or incentives is having the desired outcome in terms of diversity at the top of any fields that aren’t traditionally female. Without government intervention (either government jobs or mandated diversity for contracts), the workforce in this country would be white and Asian men by a large majority.
I imagine these are all union jobs. Good luck trying to get the unions to hire unskilled labor no matter what their color.
Mexicans of Spanish decent are white Europeans.
Not for the most part. If they were, the wall would already have been built.
White folk ... doing the jobs minorities dont want.
I’m sure they’d hire every minority they could to fill quotas.
But that actually is the issue.
At least it was in Boston during the “Big Dig” taxpayer funded boondoggle that went billions and years over budget and deadlines.
Along with the general corruption and fraud that exploded the costs, you had ridiculously overpaid union labor that was still overwhelmingly white in large part, yes, as a legacy of racism combined with the nepotism by which you had to know, but more likely be related to, someone in the union to get into the union.
Lots of low-skill black men who actually lived in Boston could and should have been taken into apprenticeship and entry-level positions by which they could have learned real skills and got on the wrung to continued, mid-wage employment.
But that didn’t happen. The featherbedding of longtime union nests left those Bostonians and their families who should have gained from the flow of federal tax dollars into Boston out in the cold.
I’m working in an area where 14,000 new homes are going up
Despite the demographics of the area, which is predominately white, most of the workers I see have got quite the tan
And seeing how fast they throw these pre-fab $300,000 + homes up, no way would I want one
This article is crazy racist...and materially irrelevant to construction and transportation.
Clearly Marxist “organizing”. Product of depraved minds.
Good Grief! What is the problem here? Construction workers are nearly always men and Syracuse is a northern city. I am beginning to think these idiots will not be happy until everyone of Caucasian ancestry is dead. Also, other than being able to use a hammer and a screwdriver, most women do not want to be construction workers, nor are they capable because of the lack of sufficient physical strength.

You are catching on.
Genocide
Too many “white illegal alien mexicans”
How much of that “50 %” are of working age, not serving out a sentence and physically able to work in construction?
Driving thru the city I always find it remarkable how many able bodied men I see sitting on the front stoops of the homes there. As my dear old dad would say “A strong back is a terrible thing to waste!]
