All the businesses in my area, even Walmart are having rolling closures due to staff not coming to work or not being able to find employees.

Some of the restaurants are having to close on the weekends because they dont have workers.

I have never seen this before. And, it isnt like it is something that gradually started to happen. It started happening all at once.

um this thread might actually be interesting if you all have county and state, kind of meaningless without that
 Quoting: Keilani


We are currently in Cobb County, GA.

Everything was closed, with the exception of the Taco Bell drive thru, last night when we went out to get some food at 9:30 on a Friday night in a Metro Atlanta county.

I ate 7 tacos and now I feel like shit.

People need to go back to having independent family farms. At this point you'd have to tear down all the corporate chain businesses and bust up all the concrete to get to a lot of the farm land. Then, maybe go to war with China because they own a lot of the farm land not built on.

Mean while,

53 year old white man, having applied for over 250 jobs in the past year, interviewed for over 40, have recieved no offers.

Initially, I looked inward, I must be a shitty interview, I don't have the skills, etc.


In the past month however, I had 2 hiring managers tell me, I would love to bring you on but my diversity team has encouraged me to hold off on bringing on Caucasians.


Previously, worked for myself, 2019 found that contracts were going overseas or to minorities in the US.

At this point, I hope it all burns down.
 Quoting: OU8122


Why do businesses even have such a thing? Is it required by the fed for larger businesses, do businesses get tax breaks for hiring "minorities"? My Dad owns a few small independent businesses and he hires mostly Whites and said he never heard of or looked into getting tax breaks for hiring minorities. He said he just hires who he wants.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80064536


Years ago it was called affirmative action. Beyond being forced to hire minorities you would see fire and police depts where to be promoted to sergeant a white candidate had to score 96 on the exam and other non whites needed like an 82. Interesting enough, you would typically find the white candidates capable of scoring 96 yet some of the non whites still struggled to get to 82.

The premise was that diversity was good. Personally, I believe the correct approach would be to look at the demographics where the position was being hired for. If a town/city was 70% white and 30% non white than you should see roughly the same composition for the employee base. Not always, but for the most part that would make sense. Of course you need to have the correct mix of QUALIFIED candidates for that to work.

What's messed up is no one screams "diversity" with companies like the NBA. The NBA covers the US, if you want to be picky you could isolate demographics for each state the NBA is in. I think you would find somewhere around 75% white 15% black and 10% other.

If diversity is important than NBA players should be 75% white, 15% black and 10% other.


Anyhow, the media, and politicians really drive home the poor minority, cant compete on merits narrative and big business laps it up.

Most blacks I know are insulted that politicians and media are forcing companies to do this because when they achieve anything people will not look at them and say, that individual excelled through hard work and determination, they will often be viewed as receiving some help from whitey because they were not capable on there own.

Honestly, it really is insulting to blacks.

Anyhow, it is what it is.

Here is education for the masses !


“ This is the problem you don't get the bigger picture.

The whole living wage argument is a bunch of idiots that don't understand economics.

It doesn't matter what you get paid per hour! All of this free money is printed out of thin air and makes the money less valuable.

You idiots are fighting for the wrong things. You should have been fighting against government spending that can't be backed by real money!

So say you make 50 dollars an hour starting tomorrow but a month from now a loaf of bread costs you 30 dollars, well are you making a living wage now?

Back in the early 90's when I was making 14 dollars an hour I was able to afford a house and support my stay at home wife and 2 kids. I can't do that now at over 30 dollars an hour!

Anyone under 30 should really educate themselves on how the economy works because you all are wasting your time fighting for something that won't help you at all and perhaps get it through your thick skulls that nothing in life is free and the gubbermint doesn't have any money other than yours!”

What kind of idiot would work when the government is handing out 2k a month?

What kind of business owner would pay 15hr when you can just pay the illegals less...

And TRUST ME, there are plenty of illegals now willing to do the work...

This was all designed to destroy America...

Is it obvious yet?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77644314


Im actually getting $3120 per month, about $4000 less than I had been earning but yeah, woo hoo if you say so
 Quoting: OU8122


Dang! That is still good living in my area.

I don't see how a person could live on less than $20 per hour. Even at that after rent, insurance, utilities, etc, there wouldn't be anything left. Prices are increasing so fast.
 Quoting: Etta


I have been living in extreme poverty for most of my life. Quite alot of life opportunities have been robbed from me because of this fact. I have been made fun of in real life for years for having the audacity to keep living at all because I am dirt poor. Try living in poverty for decades. You will either go insane from the very often extreme financial stresses to make ends meet... or you learn an entirely new appreciation for life.
 Quoting: darkwolf007



I feel bad complaining because you are right, 3120 for doing nothing is not bad. I don't feel guilty about it, my taxes over the years have been significant and now it's time I get some back.

With that said, we lived pretty large (we being my wife more than me) we also took on to much debt where I needed about 7k a month to keep everything working. I knew over the years I had developed a pretty wide range of skills that would always be in demand. When the ability to secure contracts on my own took a big hit in 2019 I had to work for someone else and that made me nervous knowing that as I aged and remained white that at some point the whites working for these big companies would do anything to stay in their positions, so instead of companies saying no, we will not hire just because the media tells us blacks can't compete, we will hire the best candidate.

This could old stop if those captains of industry said they were going to follow MLK dream and hire based on the content of character and not color of skin.

Whitey bad - oh well.

Side note, interesting how they now call years of hard work, long hours, perseverance white privilege.

I have called some creditors and told them I will not be paying my bill this month, I will be using my white privilege instead. Actually had one phone agent ask me to hold so they could check with their manager how to do that.

When push comes to shove people will act in their own
self-interest. Businesses with low wage business models are obviously having trouble finding people. One thing I have noticed is that those businesses used to hire young inexperience workers just breaking into the workforce. Now seeing a lot of adults in those positions. Where are the young people working? youtube perhaps? Maybe they don't work that's why they have time to riot, break stuff and set fires. Maybe why too they have so much college tuition debt since they take out loans instead of working their way through like we used to do? Not really sure just trying to understand what in the hell is going on.
