There is absolutely zero chance that he was rejected in 30s based on ethnicity. No matter how unethical you might think a corporation might be, none would be stupid enough to implement a policy so obviously illegal.
- viggity 8y agoAnd yet, Harvard and all the Ivys do it all the time.
- throwaway5250 8y agoNot in 30s. Having some undesirable demographics myself, I'm quite aware that corporations discriminate illegally. It's so easy to hide, though, and so costly not to do so, that imagining this as an example seems a bit silly.
- FranzFerdiNaN 8y agoOf course that was the reason he was rejected. Companies do plenty of stupid and/or illegal things, they just think they can get away with it. Just look at Theranos. Or banks wilfully working with drug dealers to launder money. Or Google and co making agreements not to steal people to keep wages down. It's all about risk management.
- dangwu 8y agoIt’s definitely not “absolutely zero”.
- seattle_spring 8y agoSure, in the same way -450 degrees Fahrenheit isn't technically "absolute zero."
