I don't so much say it's beneficial as to say that in any company people will be fired. What does it matter who's hired, really? Most companies hire people based on some form of connection, word of mouth or some manager wanting to f*ck that nice lady one day. "Oh noes, they hired a black, gay or some fat black woman". Who cares? The company will churn through people or people will leave for better jobs. People don't stay at even good jobs long these days anyways. With all the ways people are hired corruptly, what in the hell does it even matter? Companies are inherently corrupt in who they hire to begin with as most public entities are, just in subtly different ways. I as a northern European male could honestly care less. At every company I've been at I've found it always hilarious to see the gay faction, the angry fat black lady faction or other create havoc for the latest little bulging belly, borderline delusional midlife crisis company in crowd.
Let them give the fat 40 something chip eaters at the top of the company some stress. We all hate them anyways.
Na. It`s because I would like to spread the genepool and not end up ****ing my relatives.
Other than that, do you think one can list achievements based on race and ethnicity?!
So you think the dichotomy is diversity or incest?
Is that big in Germany?
Your outlook seems fatalistic. What does it matter? When people are hired or fired not based on character or ability but by "identity" we are saying we value symbolism over achievement. Im guessing that does not matter to you, but it does to me.
Dogma isn't good enough.
I'm not saying diversity supersedes qualifications but that doesn't automatically render it irrelevant. There are loads of thing beyond measurable skills, knowledge and qualifications which will influence the quality of an individual's work and indeed the work of their colleagues, for good or bad. How those factors are able to practically, are permitted to legally or should morally affect hiring decisions is a whole different matter.Which is why I replied with the following.
It was irrelevant.Pretty much irrelevant and does not supersede qualifications.
If employment decisions were only about qualifications, we wouldn't have job interviews. There is a huge factor of personal preference and opinion that goes in to most hiring decisions that is pretty much unavoidable. That's why this is such a difficult area to deal with in the first place.Consequences? That is offensive as it implies something that is not there.
The only thing needed for that discussion is qualifications.
Is that what you think I meant by what I said?Clearly I know what liberal means. I've been liberal all my life
Spin.and I know that liberals have always represented the rights of ordinary people and resisted authority and conservatives have always lined up and supported authority unless they bailed when it looked like a losing proposition.
Yeah. It pretty much does.I'm not saying diversity supersedes qualifications but that doesn't automatically render it irrelevant.
Unless needed, it is irrelevant.There is a huge factor of personal preference and opinion that goes in to most hiring decisions that is pretty much unavoidable. That's why this is such a difficult area to deal with in the first place.
I give up. I'm not interested in "discussions" with brick walls.Unless needed, it is irrelevant.
That's what you get for being wrong.I give up. I'm not interested in "discussions" with brick walls.
Na. It`s between being a hole closed to the rest of the world. And being open and willing to learn.
But yeah, incest kind of occurs mainly in the closed regions.
No not realy, we have significant slavic and Turkish minorities and are a pluralistic society.
Whats it like in the failed confederacy?
What company hires on "character or ability"? Show me that company. It doesn't exist. Every company I've worked at, one top 25, hired based on perceived "identity" in the interview. I know because I lied in my interview and got the job at a top 25 US bank.
Your fantastical idea that any company on earth is any less corrupt in their hiring practices is simply wishful thinking. Humans hire based on emotion. Companies are run by humans. Met plenty of people who were hired simply because they knew so and so. Companies hiring practices are no less corrupt than any other organization in the public sector.
You people need to get over this fantasy "purity" of companies. It doesn't exist.
NRO? Both biased and inaccurate.
But such opinions are no more than that. Nothing reason people adhere to.
Lol. No substance.
Ive been hired and promoted based on merit. Im sorry things didn't turn out so well for you. Pity that you'd lie to get ahead like that.

My income is fine.
I'd question your boasting seeing as you consistently have demonstrated you cannot use proper grammar.. The idea that you are being promoted with such grammar raises questions as to where.. McDonald fast food?
I still am getting used to the fact that on this forum there are high post count users that command respect whom are adults whom cannot use proper grammar yet will insult and make employment claims using middle school grammar.
Definitely not on a European Progressive forum. Definitely not. Heh.. US forum users definitely have their own little world that's for sure..
What does this have to do with racial/ethnic diversity? It's got nothing to do with it unless you know jack **** about genetic science and then assume that just people people are of a certain ethnic group they're all the same and there is no genetic variation. There is plenty of genetic variation within one ethnic group and it constantly refines and modifies itself. It's also plastic to the environment.
I can't believe a German would think like that.
I live in California but like the south. Of course even a bunch of southerers seemed to enjoy defeating your "enlightened" nation just 2 generations back in WW2. Im sure you remember.
I'm not german. Also, science is science.
So the southerners won WW2????
