Discrimination[Jobs] - Rant/Opinion

[Sylph]

I totally feel you. No one really hired me when I had dreads, I could apply for 1000 of jobs but all jusy "Nay nay nay nay nay.... Nay nay nay nay nay". But something that I've also head behind my back (not towards me though) was someone saying "Who would hire a fat guy as a chef? I mean they're big, clumpsy, lazy, slow... They will just be in the way and wont work as effecient as a normal person, like who would even want to look like that? Doesn't that show that you're poorly dedicated? Like bitch how hard is it to run? [mumbles out "incompetent swines"] " and as an overweigh guy I found that rather offencive. Not only because of the words, but because of the lack of empathy/sympathy and ignorance, because it doesn't have to mean that you're unhealthy, not ambitious or even slow, some people just have a poor metabolism and it's hard to loose weigh. Some people...

Exactly Zetty-kins! And the kicker for me is, like I said, Dreads are prevalent here, nearly 2/4's of men and women here wear them. So it's not like it's a shocker for anyone here lol.

Zetty, I don't find you over weight even, so I'm not sure what was going on with them people, but clearly are too close minded and judgmental.

And isn't it a saying that a good Chef eats his/her own food? I guess they must want skinny bitches who eat leaves cooking prime ribs or something? :I

I'm too open minded and emotional for my own good lol I wish I could be in charge of the world for just a day....or forever :p
