“Well, if it’s jobs Americans can’t do, doesn’t sound like the illegal immigrant population, as a whole, would be able to do them, either.”
Funny you should say that.
One of my California consulting clients, who actually manufactured things to sell all over the world, got an audit from the EEOC based on a Mexican American being passed over for promotion to a lead position. He neglected to mention in his complaint that the successful applicant was a Mexican immigrant who got his primary education in Mexico and could do error free basic math. The young lady who came to perform the “audit” was a Latina attorney with a chip the size of a tree trunk on her shoulder. I’ll never forget the look on her face when the sucessful applicant was introduced to her. Or having the HR manager recount what the young lady said when she was shown the complainants attendance and disciplinary record. Now in fairness 95% of the people who worked in this company were hardworking, dedicated people. But the ones who went to school in our community schools had incredibly poor math skills. It’s really hard to promote or even train people if they can’t do basic math.
