How do Whitemen get jobs instead of women and minorities?

Friday, November 27th, 2009

An educated Whiteman with a college degree does not get the job when in competition with a woman or colored guy with the same backgrounds. We need affirmative action for Whitemen only. Let us ship women and blacks to the South Pole. I have been trying for years to get that job, but to no avail a woman or mininority Always gets it instead of me. It’s those women’s sexist groups and black racist groups that are the enemy of Equal Opportunity Laws. Laws can not stop their hatred. So I boycott women and minority owned businesses.

Work on your resume. You can get a job. The problem is you are acting like the world owes you something when in fact, looking for a job is all about what YOU can offer the world.

I am trying to start a business and wanted to know if there are any grants and loans for minority women?

Friday, November 27th, 2009

who are trying to start their own business that are legitimate and not trying to run a scam.

Go to http://www.grants.gov for a list of government grants and how you can apply for them. Then, go to http://www.score.org/ and in the upper left hand corner, enter your zip code. On the next screen, you will get information on the nearest SCORE chapter. Call them and arrange for a free meeting with a SCORE counselor.
