Rainier - amen to that.
I think multiculturalism has worked for most of us. But I am sick of explaining to rednecks and boofheads why racism is wrong. If they are too dumb to get it they should be asked to find another country. Whether they are 7th or 8th generation Aussies it doesn't matter. They have to contribute positively to this country. The rednecks should realise that they can't tell the immigrants to fit in etc when they themselves are being disruptive. The rednecks should fit in or leave.

Lucy, Ok so whats your definition of redneck? Low income, low education.

I have seen this type of discrimination by senior executives, CEO’s, senior managers etc. They have all travelled and been exposed to greater things than a VB stubbie.

What I am saying is that discrimination does not occupy one particular group. Prejudice always has and always will exist. You will never change people’s minds on that. You might expose there flawed thinking but the core of what they think will be the same.

Maybe those people who are now senior executives, CEOs and senior managers were bogans to begin with, but they would have got access to a university education, and a free education at that, in the 1980s courtesy of the tax payer, and many of those tax payers would have been migrants.

But they will always be ingrates.

First.

It is a male world. Preferable age 30.

After that there is discrimination on language, sex, age, weight, accent, appearance, teeth quality, even home address.

Clone only need apply. Suit, no outward sign of any cultural affiliation or personality acceptable.

I go for job interview. There is Australian born Chinese male applying for the position. Does clone well.

I am middle aged female with far too many ideas and opinions.

They will employ the Australian born Chinese male.

Same Australian born Chinese male applies for another position. White male, healthy, one of the boys, is his opposition.

White male gets the job.

Aussie Chinese male applies for another job and is up against a chain smoking over weight white male aged 40.

Australian chinese gets the job.

Growing trend.
Due to over play of race card some employers are refusing to employ migrants from fear of being sued for racism. They fear if the employee has poor job performance and needs to be let go they will cry racist. Fear of being called racist, especially seeing such vague things like offering people chicken is racist.

Growing number of complaints.
Some recent migrants lack cultural awareness when dealing with the public and cause offense usually by being too pushy, invasion of privacy and also lack of language skills. May see drop in telephone related employment opportunities. There is also some employers wary of employing white South African males due levels of complaints of bullying and arrogance, so not all racial at all. Culture is the key.

On returned mail. Well not too bad considering most mail for people who have left address is for people with foreign names. So perhaps people get fed up being a mail forwarding service.

Summary, The corporate sector especially favours Australian born male aged 30-33 give or take a few years. The corporate culture is ideally attained by following the pathway of the Australian education system that brainwashes people to be wage slaves of capitalism.

So to measure true discrimination one should only measure men born 1975-1980.

It is a system compliance issue.

Oh no... she's back!

Yes back. Not sure why they bother with these studies, they should just ask me. :)
