Guest guest Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 Hmm, maybe wear a hidden cam with a recorder, or at the very least a wire to record any discriminating remarks they may say to you openly, or ones you can pick up from them unknowingly? haha However, I do know that we're discriminated against, though perhaps not as much as were in years past, or as much as a few on here might lead us to believe. >>> NOPE <<<, I am not referring to anyone specifically on here before I get asked that one! Here's my expeience with discrimination, : When I graduated HS and went looking for a job, I went to this one place that even had a sign outside saying, " Hiring, no experience necessary, will train. " So I went in, filled out the app, thought I answered everything well actually, as I had graduated with honors. Then the receptionist took my app down the hallway, which I was watching the whole time. She then went into an (open and very viisble) office, handed my app to a man who was doing the hiring... and mind you, I could see this all happening, and took it from her. As he was reading it, it looked like from his expression that he was be very impressed with my app, which again I could see, but he must've asked her which I could not hear but surmised, " Who is this guy? " Because at that very precise moment she then motioned with her chin downwards with her head turning and looking towards me sitting on a chair in the lobby, down the hallway from her, pointed at me with her chin:P. Well, he saw my feet 'dangling' from the chair, lol, and obviously seeing that I was a dwarf, nodded back to her, again which I could see all of this unraveling right before me, Nodded 'no' to her, which she then came back to me right after that and said, " I'm sorry, but the position has been filled. " Which I knew was a lie! Wow, I wish I had a wire then! haha luv, grady PS-All the best in your job search:). > hi.. im new to this.. im 4'7'' and i have a question for everyone! does anyone know how i could prove that jobs are discrimanating me?? i cant get a job. they think im 12 and dont take me serious! my friends of " normal " hight that are the same age as me (15). can get a job any where. i wanna prove that these places are discrimanating me because im short, so i guess i look young! any advice would be really apprecated! thankxs p.s. you can IM me with any advice too.. mixed_emotions08@s... k thankxs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
