TYRANOS'S PROFILE

So tempted to back this simply because there aren't enough fat faced people, Spaniards, blacks, or even fantasy races in face sets.

No Darklord. They merely helped me test whether or not it was kosher and did not need the job. Like I said though whoever designed the first website is an idiot. It gave limited information and expected you to somehow read minds. They should have stated which type of disabilities they were asking about in the first place. Otherwise someone who was shot in a war would be disabled technically if he never was able to regain use of his limb properly. One person was looking for a job but he got hired elsewhere, ironically by a competitor.

On another note I recall a guy downtown who literally called me a guido all the time and I wondered what his problem was. I went in and asked if I could get a sandwich and he literally said "I don't serve Italians here.". I don't even look all that Italian! I mean I might, I don't know. But still he literally refuses to serve Italians for some reason and I don't know why because he looks like a Roman.

EDIT: By the way I'm Spanish/Welsh/German/Atlantean? Atlantic Islander? How the hell do you say you are from atlantic islands? Puerto Rican to be exact but possibly some other native tribes as my bloodline apparently had no problems with breeding. I've even got family in China, granted they are distant relatives. My family is huge and I'm certain there is probably Italian blood somewhere in my current living bloodline, but I swear this dude with a legionnaire outfit would look far more Italian than myself. Anyways I mention this guy because he also pulled a gun out and yelled at a girl to leave before he shot her. When the cops responded he said a filthy Italian tried to infiltrate his business. Pretty sick in the head. It was in a local paper about 4 or 5 years ago. To this day though his applications ask "Are you Italian?" on them.

Oh, so you didn't send the two resumes simultaneously purely for the purpose of trapping them? Because that was what you made it sound like - as though your hobby is sending pairs of almost-identical fake resumes to companies and trying to entrap them with apparent displays of unfairness. Which was an idea that kind of bothered me.

If the two resumes weren't submitted at the same time though then that adds other variables to the equation. At a guess, they simply found someone else for the original job opening, and stopped all other interviews once they found one qualified person. When you applied again later without mentioning the disability, you were applying for a different job opening, and competing against a different set of other applicants.

Also, your English is terrible so it's difficult to tell what you're saying, but you seem to be contradicting yourself. Now you're saying that the first application was accepted?

Nah that idea bothers me too. I don't try to trap people but I do notice when things are a little off kilter. To be clear in my first one I said yes but then I realized the name was wrong and in redoing the whole process I said no the second time. But the entire process was done by the time I sent the second resume and they even called me twice. They were interested in an interview and called to have me fill out the second part of their questionnaire. That was when I said yes but I decided to name it differently after being sent an email saying I did not meet their qualifications. The only thing that happened between the time I got those calls was filling out the second part which simply asked a few background questions like phone number, address, and age. After answering those I came to the question "are you disabled" and said yes. Then before I got the email I decided I wanted to change that answer since having a shitty knee wouldn't really count against it. However in the process of resubmitting a resume and reapplying my phone beeped and I checked it out seeing a new email from Assurant. That was the email that stated I did not meet qualifications. So I decided to try again anyways since I more then met what they asked. The second time though I said no to "Are you disabled" since again I just have a shot knee. This time I went through all the same steps only this time they set a date for an interview. Keep in mind I changed my middle name the second time. After this though I got a little suspicious since I told a friend about them and he said they wouldn't hire him. So I went over it with him as well and we discovered that when he did the same process that upon saying no to that same question of disability he suddenly was slammed with calls wanting him to come in for an interview. At this point I was beyond suspicious because the reason he said yes was due to his back. That is a massive red flag for any physical job. But this is customer service. So I called Omen and a few other people and asked if they could do the experiment the same way we did. But here is a kicker Stu did it only find that even with the same exact name that he was called when he said no after being turned away the first time. Others I know have tried this and it's funny because all of them are having the same issue. Of course the problem was how things were worded and while the HR department thought the process was asking about mental disabilities that would hinder the job it was not. It just asked "Are you disabled" and that's what caused a large uproar. To be honest I did not expect a picket of the building but yes there were people protesting outside. I wasn't the only one to take notice.

This game needs to be finished. I was actually disappointed that my play was over at the ship. Plus looking at screenshots of a skill system only makes me want it more. Anyways I've uploaded the whole thing and plan on submitting the last of it. It's a hell of a game and the only thing stopping it from being for sale on steam or some other platform is literally that the graphics and audio would cause copyright concerns. This was a very nice game and I hope it gets an artist to make custom assets for it.

They actually received so much shit that they changed the site considerably since we looked at it. It now states "Mental disability" because those are specifically the types that would impact the job and it even gives a list. Looks like they cleaned everything up to be a bit more kosher with the law. At least they own up to their mistakes and fix it.

Either way the constant threat of lawsuits made them give in. At least I assume this is what they got called for 90% of the time with such blatantly messed up written policy where everyone applying could see it.

That being said though has anyone else here seen some really messed up discrimination in the workplace? I've never really encountered it before but people say it's everywhere. Maybe it's a perk of working jobs where people have to move heavy objects all day.
