Are you a White computer guy? IBM doesn't want you. Leaked video of CEO here.

Seems like there needs to be a class action suit for people fired and not hired, for being White men. The Red Hat dude specifically says Red Hat managers/execs were FIRED for refusing to discriminate against White men. Show this tape in court and the lawsuit should be a slam dunk.

How does this shit not violate federal law?

Oh right, they're Commucrats so they get a free pass

[GTOguy]

I wonder how Doug's lawsuit against all of us is coming along?

I remember making Christmas Wreaths out if their computer cards

blatant violation of labor laws. Meanwhile the feds are going after some small moving company because he doesnt have old dudes moving boxes for 15 bucks an hour. Duh, old dudes should be in their peak earnings years at a real job, dikwads.

Funny I worked at a lot of IBM facilities, both new construction and renovation.
Guess what, it was the white male that did a very large percentage of that technical work.

This is kinda like the battle between the combat military people and the peacetime ones that take over after the fighting is done and get rid of the people that actually did something.

This happens a lot more than people realize, there is a quota system in having a certain amount of diversity within your employee population (and a lot of companies will tie it to their bonus to make sure they are doing their part). The federal gov't sets hiring standards once a company becomes a certain size and you'll go through mock OFCCP audits (office of federal contractor compliance programs) to ensure your hiring efforts are acceptable to the dept of labor.

It's racist and discriminatory but all under the umbrella of equal opportunity. My previous company was in biotech and we were trending around 7% african american, which is really good for a company of our size, but still not good enough for some leaders. That's only one example of how bad it has gotten in the hiring world.

How about apologizing to Yadkin for disrespecting his wife so we can get him back here?

IBM bought out the company I worked for, so I was one of those white guys working for IBM, and one of their rainmakers. Christ, they even sent me and my mother to Morocco for a trip I won based on my production.

Then...they tried to cut my compensation to the tune of 30k+. I flipped them the bird, took a job at a boutique firm for a 51% raise, and then moved from that company to my current employer for an additional 45% raise. **** IBM.

[mtnman]

This isn't news. Engineering firms do it all the time. So do large oil and gas companies. Should be illegal - but racism only seems to exist if it comes from whitey. This what affirmative action and hiring quotas result in

[Unsuspicious]

I don't see a problem here. If you're qualified and white, just identify as Indian.

They have the whole power point presentation, including slides, at this link. Disgusting. I couldn't make it even halfway through.

Honestly this sort of shit makes me even more glad to be white. Whatever some social justice marxist bafoon says makes me a bad person, I'm now automatically 1000% going to identify with that even harder.

Bigot who won't suck the girl cock? You bet your ass, I'm bigoted. Transphobic, or anything else they want to label me as. 1000%.

White privileged because I have work ethic and appreciate grammar? Absolutely, the most racist and privileged asshole out there, 1000% and will go even harder when I get labeled as such.

Imagine being a whiny mother****er who can't even ****ing exist without redefining words and even making up new ones just so you can tell the world how asshurt and pathetic you are.

Anyone who tells you that your culture is the root of all of their cultures problems, and then tries to lay an expectation on you to change or alter your culture in order to compromise with their needs and expectations, is as ****ing retarded as they are manipulative, and as such, deserve neither attention nor respect.

Let them wallow in their filth.

Slide 19:

"If your instagram feed isn’t 50% Black, you’re doing it wrong. "

These people want us to hate ourselves, so what is the end goal here. Are they laying the battlefield for divide & conquer through future race wars?

I (a white guy) was selected for an IT job at the Smithsonian Institute by their CIO (whom I had worked for at another agency) and was waiting for a start date and the CIO called me to tell me that he was over-ruled and told he had to hire a minority (somebody several slots down the "short list" of contenders). So, yeah, it happens all over.

Too bad because it would have been the coolest job I can imagine.

You deserved not to get the job. You are the problem, as evidenced by one of the IBM/Red Hat training slides:



Hope that helps.

I worked for 25 years in the IBM world on the customer end. They supplied nothing but top notch kick ass, early next morning support if you payed for it. When shit hit the fan an IBM CE handled it. ****ing A'

Good luck finding people to hire.

Oh, they'll find them. Trust me. They'll be incompetent and lazy, but they will be plugged into the system. Hell, look at our V.P.

Good point.
