Over the past few years I’ve realized that there are few companies left that aren’t guilty of reverse discrimination. Professional forums are filled with tokens asking others how to do their jobs; I haven’t answered in years. “Mentoring” now means screwing a qualified person out of a job with a token; in my experience it takes AT LEAST TWO tokens to fill any real positions - at least!
At some point, you will start to see a trend where people go into a university on day one, and announce themselves to being one-half American Indian, eventually even adding some name-change to hype themselves and their resume.
So down the line by 2030....half-a-million fake American Indian technology engineers will exist and Google will proudly hint of their great ability to draw American Indians into their line of work.
You are so correct. I interact with people in my profession doing business with other businesses then I will see the same people in the private forums for products and services asking how to do the simplest tasks. If their client actually knew the real lack of knowledge this person has they would fire them in a minute, or as some have done, not cared and kept throwing money at them. When bad vendors are finally let go by the client and I happen to speak with them they are so turned off by their past experience they hesitate to hire again which will delay increased revenue for their business.
