A friend of mine was Supervisor where one of the guys in the warehouse was coloured.
Racist.
Oh dear.
Is it deemed racist to say coloured?
I had black orginally and then changed it because I thought that might be offensive.

I'm sure they never had a worker from Ireland who was difficult to work with? Must have put them off hiring Irish people if they did......
Of course you can find people who are good or bad at their job in any and all ethnic categories, to suggest that they behaved in a particular manner merely because of their ethnic background is exactly the kind of racism that is so widespread in this country. To not employ future candidates from particular backgrounds because of poor performance of previous workers from vaguely similar backgrounds (or more likely, not remotely similar, but hey, they all look alike, right?) is extremely racist behaviour, and I would hope they get the book thrown at them. Not that they ever would.
And playing the race card???? People are generally accused of this when they are highlighting the fact that they are being subjected to racist behaviour. Should they say nothing so as not to draw attention to themselves? If you refused to employ me because someone who looks a bit like me once caused you trouble I would "play the race card" till I was blue in the face.
Our own what? Our own people, I suppose. So we favour some people over others simply because they are Irish, and we claim that is somehow right.
I had black orginally and then went back in and changed it because I thought that might be offensive.
I was blue in the face.
Consider this would you be offended if a black person called you white.
There is far too much pussy footing around when it comes to peoples colours.
They are black, red, yellow, olive skinned, brown or green (just in case any martians or the little folk are reading this) and we are white.
Do you ever suffer from racial discrimination ? I mean because of your colour ?Well said.
I suppose you are not part of the "I'm not racist, but..." group then?

Ah now, you're not being fair....Salma Hayek ? Vampire or not, she get's the job !!!!
At the heel of the hunt, it is within the employers right to hire whom he/she wants to. As most employers have a keen eye on the botom line, I would imagine that the best (for the company) man/woman wins.
