[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 799421, member: 12508"] Here's some reality for you, so stop your "spinning" for a second and pay attention. Fact: FedEx has lost numerous discrimination suits, and ever since the $51m Black/Latino management settlement in CA, FedEx has been doing everything possible to show how "diverse" they are. This is where the "Diversity Appeal" publication came from, and it only exists to show everyone that FedEx has learned it's lesson. Ever read it? It's probably the most PC rag you've ever seen, but it will probably help FedEx avoid more lawsuits in the future. Fred probably views this investment as worthwhile. "Demeaning to those people in the audience"? Huh? What's really demeaning is that FedEx trots-out a rainbow "audience" that supposedly shows a true cross-section of FedEx Express. Funny how a random sample of "questions" came from such a perfectly-balanced group of employees, or doesn't your critical mind pick-up on this obvious anomaly? This is why it has to be fake. There's no way statistically that you would achieve that particular blending of employees. In my 25+ years with this company I've seen exactly one person of East Indian heritage, yet there are several in the Town Hall. There aren't many Asians who work at FedEx either, so the large number in the audience is very likely a misrepresentation. In other words, [B]FedEx[/B] is demeaning minorities by over-representing them in this production, and under-representing Caucasians. Anyone who has ever taken a statistics course would quickly determine that this is not a random sample of the FedEx employee population, especially if you consider that they are supposedly there to have [I]their [/I]questions answered (but not verbatim).Of all employees who were picked, this group just happens to be ethnically balanced.Hmm. You don't need to be Mr. Spock to see the [I]ill[/I]ogic of this "audience" Fake, Phony, Fraud, and set-up all the way. Canned like SPAM, and served-up with a couple of cheesy "hosts" who have a definite agenda to spread with their media shovel. My "bias" is against corporate suck-ups, not minorities. An audience full of "tokens" is not only an insult to minorities, but a gross underestimation of the average employee's intelligence. [/QUOTE]
