Yeah, Mike, a life of undeserved and unearned high position, gifted you because you're white.. Good job, you did what was necessary to take care of your family.

That was fast!

Facetiousness aside my life has always resembled a sad Country song. The crap I've been through! But I don't let it define my existence and I'm well aware others have had it worse off and turned out even more successful than myself.
But then there's those that resign themselves to their fate.

I have never had anything handed to me. My father passed away recently and didn't leave me a red cent. At every turn I've been bent over and jerked around and crapped on. And mostly by my own kind that are better off than me. Being from the proverbial wrong side of the tracks hasn't endeared me to anyone along the way. I've certainly never had anyone stop to help me with a darn thing - ever.

If there's such a thing as white privilege then I must not be white because it certainly never done squat for me.
I've fought tooth and nail working since I was 13 years old to get away from the squalor I grew up with. At some point along the way other poor people started treating me as someone else. Someone they didn't approve of. And people who weren't poor still looked down on me. I've felt like a social outcast most of my adult life because I don't fit in anywhere. People I came from only see me as a walking ATM machine and people I'm surrounded by now treat me as a loser. Old coworkers and work friends from 20 years ago that started out at the same level as me then are all middle to upper management and even CEOs and business owners nowadays meanwhile I'm still in the same position I was then. Just a Senior role now though. And that works against me because companies dont want senior level people who earn more money.
Job search results across the country typically look like this now.

Entry level - 15000 jobs
1-3 yrs experience - 23000 jobs
3-5 yrs - 33000 jobs
5-10 yrs - 4500 jobs
10+ yrs - 334 jobs

I'm at 20 yrs still doing the same crap. It took me an entire year to find a new job last time I was out of work. All of 2018.
And now they're making it even harder with this D&I bullcrap.
Sometimes I feel like I've spent my life spitting into the wind.

But mostly I'm just thankful I'm not poor anymore.

They sent another mass email about taking the still voluntary pledge today. This time with instructions for telling the company you're going to take it.

I predict it will become mandatory next month....

How these lefty fools can advocate for black equality or reparations ...

Yeah,, reparations,,
Maybe I just don't understand the concept,, so I'll explain it, as I understand it, and you guys can straighten me out...

Reparations are monies given to people who have never suffered the injustice being atoned For , BY people who have never committed the injustice being atoned for,,

Is that about it?

This is the classic - win races sunday, sell cars monday.

Transgender snowflakes are under 1 in 10,000, add in gays, bi's and other foo foo fruitcakes, its still less than 3% of the population.

Yell and scream about that 3% being shafted (though most of those fools will love that) and you can get 50% of the population believing its rampant and happening to large numbers and entire populations of people.

Same with Illegal and legal immigration vs blacks. yell and scream that Trump is racist because of immigration stand not ever mentioning the influx of immigrants has essentially shafted the black people - again.

That's why reparations need to be paid for with immigration fees and fines on illegal employers. The incentive for reporting them will now be the responsibility of the black people and their so called supporters. Ooooo Antifa tards aren't reporting them ???? SJW ??? no ? OK then.

Cool.

My company has a token transgender thing it loves to parade around and give mic time to at all-hands meetings. Its in charge of the company social media dept. or some such useless position. And because its vegan the food served at these events always contains a meat free category. At the end of meeting 95% of that stuff gets tossed in the garbage uneaten and it's such a waste. There's people starving everywhere.

It's a wasteful point of view and ignores other options that might be mutually agreeable to all involved. But we're not permitted other options or to even consider them. There's no agreement to be had because no discussion is allowed. Discussion isn't allowed because it may deviate from narrative being dictated.

The equity of all is impossible. Especially for those whose lifestyle choices are nothing more than an elected means to get attention and be a victim a group.

I'm just glad it works in DC and not at my work location because its so ugly it physically hurts to look at it. Hideous! Fat with a five O clock shadow and fake breasts. Egads! I'd prefer a rusty spoon in my eyes.
It certainly makes me glad that nobody introduces anyone at these meetings. The idea of having to shake its hand is loathsome and creepy as f**k.
