Thread regarding AIG (American Intl Group Inc.) layoffs

The average person will usually do the hard work that all those "tall" legends in their own mind will not do personally but pontificate about while pointing to those they blame.
Just review the happenings concerning raises, promotions and STI determination to see this in the flesh.

And now we're in McCarthy's decade, what with socialism.

Yes, yes, I'm sure the reason CEOs are much taller than the average person is that the average person makes lots of excuses, but really tall people don't.

You have to address problems in real responsible ways instead of slogans, hashtags and excuses.
Much like socialism, which eventually runs out of other people's money, always having problems be someone else's fault eventually goes full circle and turns back to you, no one is ever pure enough.

Problems don't often go away if you ignore them.

You never win over hearts and minds with talking points.
Instead of slicing and dicing people into categories why not accentuate what there is in common.
Would be a good start.

I love how some people imagine that anyone who's gone through a hard time must be a snowflake, and that the adversity they experienced must be exactly the same as the adversity the so-called snowflakes experienced. It's especially hilarious when it's a tall white man.

Probably the same decade where women at work are supposed to be flirts and manic pixie dream girls and minorities are supposed to know their place.

Sounds like you touched a nerve with someone who's stuck in a decade where it's normal to use the word "folks".

Some people both try to overcome and are also clear sighted about what they are facing. But yeah, keep making excuses for the bullies.

Funny how folks run into adversity or have trouble don’t try to overcome, they instantly play the race card. Because now our goal isn’t a color blind society but a racist society where everything is about being different, having grievances, and walking around angry at life in general.
Weak minded people use excuses to explain their failures, people who succeed learn from them.

The preference for young H1-B workers from 2 countries
leads to a rampant ageism in almost every US corporation.

Just watch how many of American pushed out, and then replaced with a H1-B 2 years later.

There is no escape discrimination, regardless or race, because we all can be 40+

No, you have it wrong, all these are objective performance based measures that we made up after knowing what would get us where we want.

I guess all the studies that show that the same resumes with black sounding names and non black linked names were all put together by snowflakes. Or how about the studies that show that blind music auditions hire more women than ones where you see the performer. Yeah it must be something about working harder that has to do with it all.

Sounds more like the point of view of some pitiful snowflake who just gets upset at seeing other, harder-working folks have more success.
