DEI HIRES! DEI HIRES! DEI HIRES!

[SpaceEdge]

More likely your buddy was embellishing to make you laugh.

How does he know they were hired to fill diversity quotas? There’s HR depts and privacy laws. Even the DEI hires themselves do not know if they were hired to fill quotas

Oh it's known because they had a big work meeting before hand about it and hiring diversity. They told the employees themselves in a DEI meeting.
I realize I'm words on a screen at some level here, but this guy is far more serious and tism stricken for that whole joke part. He was devastated, it's his career and he doesn't consider it a joke

 

[SpaceEdge]

Btw I have also been in DEI meetings because of my profession. I have also been told more minorities will be hired.. I've had his same experience.

 

[SpaceEdge]

They told me that they were going to hire dirty niggers and Indians because they need to be able to see over the privacy fence.
I don't know what this means, but that's what they said in the meeting.

I’ve been explicitly instructed to hire the useless black woman as the manager and not the competent white man lol.

 

[goo gobbler]

I know this is a boomer take but I’ve come to realise it’s true.

You can make more money and be happier if instead of going to college to be taught (badly) something at life time debt levels, if you just find the local guy who builds fences and ask them if you can spend a month just shadowing them and learning the trade and helping out, then you start building a reputation as a fence guy who turns up on time and doesn’t scam.

That’s it. It’s also a lot more valuable to society than 95% of modern service jobs.

a fence guy today is going to be a mid twenties muslim with no experience himself who subcontracts the work to illegal mexicans

Good point

It’s seeping into everything, go and ask any 25 year old at random if they can change a flat, or rewire a switch, or replace spark/glow plugs or whatever the fuck. They can’t, and worse than that they look down on you if you can and don’t just pay someone else to do it.

I work for a leasing company, and we build and rent apartments in "upscale" gentrified type areas, and the majority of our tenants skew young. The number one maintenance request among our tenants is "microwave stopped working". In most of the buildings, the microwaves are located under the kitchen cabinets, and there's a switch located on the wall underneath the cabinets. They accidentally flip the switch, cut the power to the microwave, and have no idea what to do. The number two request is "thermostat not working". They run on AA batteries, and there's a big flashing indicator when the batteries are low. Again, no idea what to do. We also get numerous requests to change light bulbs, as many people have never changed a light bulb, and have no idea how to do so.

“If you ban Mexicans, who is going to clean your toilet donald trump?”

 

[BatarianGuard]

He doesn't even know what that means because he doesn't even have a GED

 

[SpaceEdge]

Jesus Fucking Christ! Seriously, who sits around thinking about this shit all day long, nevermind typing about it?!?!? I mean, we have Internet porn if you're bored. That seems much more pleasurable than DEI bitching.

When you're driving down the highway, the semi next to you isn't structural welded by robots. It's some guy. If that guy does a shit job, you could eat 10 tons of steel as a consequence.
Someone connects the bolts in each disk brake on the same semi. If they do a shit job. Eat steel.

Somehow your Internet porn logic against this leaves me assuming you're retarded

Also the person driving that semi truck could be an African driving on the wrong side of the road murdering people.

We always joke about truckers here, but driving one is a skill and we don’t need to start replacing them with fucking Africans.

If you see a Ukrainian truck driver just get off the exit and pray

You sound retarded. And have likely never worked higher in the trades than a laborer, if you did at all.

Fences aside, that's the exact way you become an electrician, plumber, mechanic ,EMT, nurse.. every local hospital has a program that does exactly what he said

electrician, plumber, mechanic - If you want the decent paying versions of these, then you need to be in a union. So, you have to go thru their training programs. You can do so with no experience, and they will teach you. Can't speak to the mechanic trade as the ones we higher are bottom of the barrel.

Nurse and EMT require schooling and/or certifications. way different than a construction job.

I'm thinking from the perspective of the person who would be employing these jobs not as someone who just wants to labor for life. There is a good reason you don't see white's in any manual labor type jobs.

I've completely lost the train of thought I had. Disregard everything.

I did warehouse work when I was young, so you’re right.

I’m middle management in IT and I wouldn’t advise people to get into my specific industry anymore.

 

[SpaceEdge]

The EMT I used as a example because I am one technically lol
I don't do that kind of job but I'm a B

 

[SpaceEdge]

Everything I said that really is exactly how one would get into it, he's absolutely right and I am in skilled labor

I moved to the US when I was 15, and I’ve seen how retarded things can be, and it’s happening here.

Example:

In the UK they used to have grammar schools, which were 100s of years old and offered the finest education to kids in the world, they were exclusive but on merit, you took a test at 11 and if you were smart you got in, if you were dirt poor or stinking rich.

This was scrapped because it wasn’t “fair” and it offended socialist liberals, who believe every kid has the chance to be the best they can bla bla bla bla bla. Now education levels there are bordering third world levels, and the best schools are now decided by being rich enough to move into the areas they exist, so poor kids even if they’re smart have no chance.

This is great, and people like @Dennyislife will defend this to the death.

They have this same mindset with everything, it’s better for everybody to be poor and stupid than to lift the standards for everybody but have inequality.

This is the future of the west.
