Officials working on the new Minnesota Vikings stadium said it might be difficult to meet certain employee-diversity goals.
The stadium legislation signed by Gov. Mark Dayton this spring included goals from the state Legislature to have minority workers make up nearly a third of the labor force and for women to be 6 percent of the workforce.

Celebrating the fact that people are different, while at the same time pretending not to notice that people are different.
Di longer you verk here, diverse it gets.
You wouldn’t want the most qualified and talented workers, only the ones that make you meet the diversity goals.
It never occurs to the liberals that their diversity goals are the very source of their problems.
Kinda like Monica Conyers informing bidders that contractors that don’t “look like us” need not apply.
All one has to do is look at our AA POTUS, his “diverse” czar’s and entire administration for that matter to see that that utopian dream just doesn’t cut it in the real world. An “Epic Fail” any way you cut it.
I can already see how this will be remedied. They'll have actual qualified construction workers doing the labor and a bunch of diversity hires sitting around collecting a paycheck.
Just do what most companies have been forced to do:
Hire the required number of minorities and have competent people follow them around doing the work for them and fixing their screw-ups.
When you have equality, diversity is the result. Diversity should never be the goal, equality should be.
What’s diversity in Minnesota? An Irish person?
If they could pass the drug test, I’m sure the Step #2 in Diversity Challenge was even more daunting:
1. Please read “See spot run.”
2. Which is larger? 5 or 1?
3. What color is the sky?

I had a contract with TVA that required lisitng racial minorities. There was no quota, just reporting.
A young man, a full blooded Alaskan Eskimo, (iniuit?) wandered in looking looking for a job. I hired him to work in the metal fab shop. He was a good worker.
Later, my book keeper asked me about him and the TVA report. She asked him and reported his presence. Later, I got a call from the Department of Labor regional office in Atlanta advising of the penalty for false reporting and really, did I have an bonefide Eskimo.
The answer was no, he was jailed for drunkeness and assault and couldn’t come to work. He had followed a girl to East Tennessee and her father was severely pissed off. He called the Sheriff and the kid was arrested.
Even later we learned he hung himself in jail. It was true love gone very, very bad.
Hmong and Somalis!
EVERY SINGLE employee that worked for the airport, not counting the airlines, just the airport, was black.
Security, sweepers, food court workers (even at the chinese food counter), the guys that drove the golf carts, every single one.
Hazel eyes and dark hair got plenty of “yer not from ‘round here” in Minnesota, in my exposure.
The kid neither drinks or smokes and hates drugs after seeing the fate of a lot of his contemporaries. Hates hot foods though, Marchant stomach.
Good teeth, worse than the English.
