holy crap people - didn't y'all read the part where I said I wasn't mad about AA?
reform, that was my point and yet everyone passed over that
as for the interview~
Firefigthers don't have interviews like job interviews
1. you have to meet the pre req's (ie: education, age etc....)
2. you then take a physical exam
3. personal interview
4. mental test - polygraph
5. drug test
He didn't even make it to the interview - we know now it was because of race because his classmate (#4 in the class I might add) was hispanic and got the job.....hmmmm.....doesn't take rocket science to figure that one out. Besides, he just finished his MICU ride outs with Dallas and even the firemen themselves admit to AA run amuck in Dallas!
All of that is irrelevent. I have no statistics, I have a job and family so looking up statistics on AA before I post on a comment board was not going to happen. My point was that AA needed to be reformed so why is everyone so quick to jump all over my ass?
Also, whatever I know about AA is what I've learned through high school, all of college and personal experiences. I'm not an AA professor, educator or expert and I doubt anyone posting on this board can know everything there is to know about AA unless they actually worked in the LBJ administration. Opinions were expressed so I added mine, why then does that make me an idiot? I graduated high school, have a Bachelor's of Science in Nursing but I'm stupid because I don't agree with some of you? give me a break.
