You only get free cheese if you are black. I really like cheese.

Nope.. they all ask you to identify yourself in these areas:
Race
Veteran status
Disability status

You can choose to not identify you race, veteran status and Disability status. They do this because there are Federal inducements to hire minorities, veterans and the disabled.

More ridiculous fake claims of racism must be made because it's damn near impossible to find any actual racism.

She is lying. McDonald's doesn't care about your race.

I just hope Sharkeisha finds gainful employment. Unless she is a stay at home mom.

Actually that's a rather creative phonetic spelling. Maybe she can work for Webster.

whacko prejudice story.

i was the techie interviewer at a major company. we were adding a programmer analyst.
I recommended a white guy.
great interview.
great education for the position, and good enough experience.
my boss, my dept mgr said no.

he said because the applicant was so handsome and fit and well spoken the mgr would feel depressed just to see him around every day.

mgr was very smart and good at his job but short and kind of ugly.

Yup. Checking those two boxes in particular gives you a huge leg up in the hiring race.

If she talking about all small businesses then it could be true . If she is claiming large businesses then she is lying . Large corporations will hire a minority over a white person any chance they can .

I always list myself as black on job applications, and I have much success getting jobs when I’m looking.

I call BS on this. The exact opposite is reality. The bias against whites, especially white men, is staggering.

No one would ask her race. And I don't believe she wasted job opportunities on pretending to be white.

I dont blame those companies at all. If I saw a job application with the that Listerine Jabungwalea Washington, I'm likely to pass over it too.
