    This is the new normal

    Meanwhile
    If ANY MINORITY had Pete Hegseth's resume
    They would be SCREAMING HE IS A DEI Hire
    but
    because he is white. . .it's ok

    This is part of the advocacy against DEI.

    Drunk under qualified white frat bro rapists is a class of people who have taken advantage of DEI for 2 centuries. You are against DEI right?

    My Point
    In this situation alot of people have no DOG IN THIS HUNT because it's obvious
    but
    They will jump in and call every minority a DEI hire at every level from Crossing Guard
    to President

    Here are my thoughts personally on DEI.

    I have 56 staff member that report to me directly. a very diverse workforce. The Culinary arts have always been that way. I have blacks, whites, gays, Hattian immigrants, Pakastani immigrants and I can keep going.

    But there is that old guard stuck in the past that are members of the good ol boys club. So, as a result of those good ol boys I have spent countless hours on webinars, diversity training, and conferences about all things DEI. For me it's a time suck, and telling someone who is already hiring and firing without any thought of a specific group is kind of insulting.

    I will equate it to my bathroom at work. We used to have paper towels to dry our hands after washing them. But some arseholes kept flushing them down the toilets and they backed up.
    So not we have some less than stellar air dryer that does jack squat for drying, again because of a few bad folks. So even though 95% of the folks never flushed a paper towel, we all pay the price.

    I don't need official documentation of me attending classes for hiring practices that I have always espoused to without thought.

    I'm just a dude in the service industry trying to keep staffing levels where they were before the VID. And that my friends is not easy.
    And if I don't hire any and all that come through the door, I will be the one making your dinner selection.
    And I'm waaaaaay past all of that.

    Most of these classes are for liability purposes from the perspective of the company.


    Understand that any ideological "woke" leftist always knows a corporation doing these things has nothing to do with sincerity in their beliefs in diversity. If these classes help their bottom line, they'll make employees take them. If it doesn't, they will stop.

    The new administration signals to these corporations that there type of classes won't help their bottom line anymore.

    A lot of you conservatives really waste a lot of time on this ****. It's why you're suspected bots or paid trolls. No one should be able to wallow in vitriol and stupidity all waking hours. Yet somehow you manage.

    Btw, quoting Elon Musk on anything? He's an undisguised white nationalist sympathizer.

    I’m white. Do you think I qualify to post here on the D&D amongst my dark skinned brothers?

    I know you have a better chance to become the head of the Department of Defense than a woman with a 20 yr career in the military.
    I D*mn sure know you would not be called a DEI hire if you were

    I support the original idea of DEI. What is not to love about diversity, equity and inclusion? America is a melting pot and a shining example of DEI. But of course like all good things, you leftist woke idiots hijacked the damn thing and made a mockery out of the idea that president Kennedy supported and signed into law. You clowns replaced it with incompetent, division and corruption.

    It’s so damn sad for you to live in this world knowing just 2 colors breh. Have you ever seen a rainbow? I still believe in the unicorn man. One day I hope you will heed the words of Dr King about the content of a man’s character instead of his skin color?
