saintee4life Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 (edited) Oh sainteeforlife you were doing so well....... That Usain Bolt is one lazy b******, and that Mo Farah.....just nae stamina. Black people can't pull pints fast enough. You read it here first. It's genetic, y'know. And absolutely, absolutely nothing to do with racist recruitment policies. But, hey, they can fair flip a hamburger, so all's not lost.Usain and mo are hardly everyday run of the mill guys, but by the same token give them an axe and a handsaw as it was in my father's day or a chainsaw in my early days and tell them to put in a good 10 hr shift on the side of a hill then it may be a different story. Nowadays it's sat on your arse in a cab pushing buttons Edited December 22, 2014 by saintee4life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rik2304 Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 So, S4L. What you're saying is an entire ethnic group would not do your job as they are too lazy. You say, "Back in the day they were classed as too lazy." Who made this classification? Doctors? Politicians? Or racists? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rik2304 Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 people in the industry long before I was in it or even born Its an industry standard that a black person would be too lazy to work in it. Is this evidence based do you think? What would you do if a black person applied for a job?Apart from have a disbelieving laugh with your comrades that is.

rik2304 Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 rik2304 I doubt the word racist was invented then 1907. Although its fair to say that the ideas of racial superiority have been around longer than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rik2304 Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 Now, S4L. I'm interested to see under what circumstances you would have felt it was possibly necessary to call someone a black b******. I'm assuming that this event on Saturday was not very nice. How would that have helped? Would you have been able to defend yourself better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
