Idk man I almost feel like it's easier for blacks to get jobs nowadays cause of this companies commitment to diversity

Can't I just put tinfoil on my roof and run that into my electrical?

 

[Shane]

That chick in the white jacket is hot af by the way

It's easier for them to get jobs compared to the past...but it ain't easier than it would be for a white dude lmao you can't really complain about that as long as the guys hired are still qualified bc it's all discretionary and that goes both ways, whether they're hiring minorities or white guys...no valid complaints in my book unless it's proven they're hiring unqualified workers over qualified ones for race reasons

 

[Shane]

Some companies literally make pledges to make their workforce more diverse which means they're specifically looking for minorities.

 

[Chris]

But I know living in East Texas has to have me more jaded than other cities about that bc there's been multiple stories this year from head managers of places getting outed bc they're dumbasses are saying through TEXTS that they weren't hiring anyone or letting them get an interview bc they were a minority

 

[Chris]

And how many of those companies are still 50% white people? Saying you're committed to diversity simply means if you got 10% of minorities currently you want that number higher, doesn't mean you're more likely to hire a minority over white people, just more likely to hire a minority than you were in a past

 

[Shane]

Being a minority also gives you a better story. It's better to say you've come from a poor neighborhood and worked your ass off to get an education against all odds rather than saying you're a rich white guy who had everything handed to you.

 

[Deezy]

Give me your boring story Sabs....I'll gladly trade you

 

[Shane]

I do have a boring story lol

 

[Chris]

That only makes a difference in sports lmao one minority coming from a terrible neighborhood and making it big allows 50 more to be stuck in that same neighborhood for the rest of their lives and no one cares bc one got out

Don't forget RAP music

 

[Shane]

I appreciate the value of hard work but I've also grown up quite privileged
