I've heard of amateur drifters and race/time attack cars that typically burn through tires pretty quick using Federals and not hating them. Bonus that the company is from Taiwan, so like the opposite of CCP.
I just got four Firestone tires for my American car. They're the best tires I've ever owned, but I don't know about the company. Wish I could have researched more before I needed them.
Cooper tires are pretty much the only brand you can get in the military overseas also... used them once no big complaints here. You can also get Bridgestone which are American made tires.
By signaling to the world we are down with the NWO so our overseas plants with slave laborers (and no EPA to hassle us) stay open. Oh yea we also use those overseas plants to launder money to avoid US taxes
Make tires, soda, fast food, whatever, I do not want to hear about your dumbfuck, half baked political views, just make your fucking product. You are a soda, I don't give a fuck about your opinion on anything other than soda.
it's what these stupid marketing professors are teaching in marketing 4.0. take a social stand. it's stupid as heck. look at the latest textbooks from Phillip Kotler. He thinks marketing is going to save the world. BARF.
You're spot on in regards to what the PR departments are producing. They're obsessed with social media, and believe it's the only way to gauge public opinion. At Syracuse University, I saw a student PR project regarding a lower class minority school that had high truancy and low retention rates. What was the proposed solution? More social media outreach from the school and more bus transportation. They also refused to bring attention to what the family makeup looked like for the students in this district. The one example they illustrated was a two-income working/middle class nuclear family.
What a piece of trash. Marketing is about maximizing the reach and positive perception of your brand. Nothing else matters in marketing: NOTHING. If you manage to go viral by pissing off half your customer base or more, you've just done a very bad thing.
Traditionally, if a company wanted to support a political platform they could simply do that through their choice of athletes and events to sponsor. Most of us wouldn't care. But push anything into our faces and we're gonna take a hard look at it, and the people pushing it.
No joke, if you go to the shaving subreddits and tell everyone you're ditching Gillette in favor of double edge or straight razors they will cheer at you... unless you say the reason for your switch was the wokeness. They will LITERALLY tell you to buy the multiblade razor you bigot rapist.
Propaganda has to be pervasive. It's in our schools, at work, in our hobbies (see sports), in all of our media, and in our higher education. They want their politics in EVERYTHING.
Yep. They become protected despite being incredibly worthless.
Have you ever had to fire a non-white person with cause? HR is a nightmare and you have to jump through so many hoops. Why? Because they know this group will cry racism at any consequences being levied against them.
Attorney here. Attorneys are responsible for a lot of society’s ailments...just know that there were also attorneys fighting on the other side who go largely unremembered.
Covid bullshit killed 2/3 of my business. My bankruptcy attorney has brought me to tears with how amazing she is. I would be completely sunk without her.
Two of my stores are under the same property management company and we were able to keep one open. She was able to get them to agree to pennies on the dollar for what they wanted to get from us for breaking one lease.
Forget firing, have you ever tried to promote somebody else over a non-white person? It doesn't even matter if the person you're promoting isn't white, you'll get a whole argument about the SJW stack of privilege and discrimination.
Thanks to #metoo one almost wants to say only white caucasian men. And thanks to the bake me a cake assholes straight ones at that. At what point do SJWs realize that being litigious assholes turns them into a liability.
Why do I want to deal with a liberal arts major when I’m trying to get hired into stem or any other expertise? They know fuck all about what the job requires and only want pillow talk from the applicants. Fuck HR
Recruiters and HR pre screens are the absolute worst. They so obviously have no clue what the position they’re hiring for actually is and then why you try to explain to them the synonym for the buzzword they were told to get they get offended.
Lol... I've been with my wife since high school. Been married for 27 years and we are very happy. She is a conservative HR department director. They do exist... but, rare like a unicorn.
A fair question. The best "official" stats put teen marriage divorce rates at 59% at the 15 year mark. Which doesn't sound too bad, since that isn't too far off divorce rates in general.
15 years is an odd metric. It's used to justify the barbell shape of the pool. How many teens are getting married today? Or the last 25/30 years? Some, but not many. So a significant share of the data comes from grandparents married in the 50's, 60's, 70's when divorce just wasn't a thing.
Of course there are still teen marriages, not many, but some. So how do we account for them? Well, once we remove the three M's, Mormons, Muslims, and Mennonites, you aren't left with too many highschool sweethearts getting married over the last 20 + years who are still together.
While data isn't the plural of anecdote, I can't think of one couple from my 1300 student highschool who were still a thing after college. And I know of no current friends married to their highschool sweetheart. I do know some who WERE married, but who the heck is the same person they were at 18 when they turn 25? Whoever got married, when they divorced, it wasn't the person they married they divorced. It was the person they became.
Crazy things do happen. My wife and I got married in the seventies and have gone on for damn near fifty years. She went to a reunion and seventy percent of her high school class was divorced.
Trump's tweets have shifted the entire daily trajectory of stock indexes in a matter of hours. Imagine having a Trump tweet talking about your corporation alone. Trump just showed that he is more than willing to call out companies who go woke.
You're probably referring to percent, but I don't think Goodyear has $20/share to lose. You could theoretically go to negative valuation stock is what I've heard, and honestly, that's probably where it should be based on how shitty their tires are.
They made a lot of that back by close of market, but the recovery won't last. Their response to this was disgustingly off-target, pretending we simply misinterpreted the slide. If they had said they were going to review the training materials because this didin't represent their policy of political inclusivity, they could've saved face with all but the left and the left would quickly stop caring.
The telltales in their response are the same font, weasel phrasing to say specifically where the document didn't come from and where it wasn't used, and especially the lack of forceful denunciation of its contents or its author.
Their press release is an admission by omission that this is in fact company policy, and they let it be dictated by middle management so corporate could keep its hands clean.
I had a co-worker get up in the middle of a diversity training class and turn in his resignation. The part about how to address John coming back as Janice pushed him over the edge. That guy is my hero. It was awesome. (he was retirement eligible, so he just said "F' this!"
Would've LOVED to be a fly on the wall in that meeting. Thankfully, my company has not forced us to endure that bullshit, but I have no intention of sitting quietly through any diversity training I'm subjected to. Did he give them a piece of his mind?
White guys teaching the shit make it pretty painless. That was the last one I had to go to. But even online license renewal courses in this drek are horrible.
I managed a department in a Fortune 500... We got a new "Chief Diversity Officer" and she made management start taking these completely retarded computer-based trainings about misgendering and racism in the workplace
One day we got a mass email stating that a manager was fired due to "sexual assault allegations"
I kept my office door propped wide open whenever dealing with female employees afterwards. I also made the employee sit at the opposite end of my office
I’m a high school teacher, and whenever a female Student wants to talk to me between classes, at lunch, or during my planning period, I walk out into the hall and talk to them there (where the cameras are).
HR is responsible for all this woke bullshit in the past decade. 15 years ago, no one gave to fucking shits about this crap. Then the millennials started entering the work for with their entitled bullshit woke offensiveness when they didn't get what they wanted and we ended up with this bullshit. FUCK Millenials, FUCK HR and FUCK WOKENESS!
Source: I'm a millennial and fucking hate anyone in my generation that stands for this horseshit. You're not cool, you're a huge faggot that deserves nothing in life.
Couldn't agree more. I'm also a millennial. First job I had out of college, found the company had a "learning to work with millennials" HR course required for all the older generation that worked there. Fuck that, new people entering the work force need to learn how to work with the experienced folks. And all the inclusion bullshit just goes beyond retarded.
Also I noped out of that company mainly due to the dumb culture
As a Gen Xer I guess I shouldn't feel bad for my intense distrust of all Millenials until they prove othewise?
Add in excessively groomed facial hair, nose rings, Harry Potter bumper stickers, and loudly colored giant tattoos and you've learned why I don't trust half the staff at my kid's junior high!
Honestly, makes me want to go into HR. Gonna need a job after college, HR seems easy enough. Plus, I can use my common sense to prevent dumb decisions and toxic company cultures.
I've actually considered this before, because it would help to have people with our values taking over those departments. Problem is the current management is going to insure that you essentially have zero upwards mobility.
Maybe I'll just pretend to be the most flamboyantly gay guy in the world to become the head of an HR department and then do a 180.
If you're female you'll make it, maybe even if you're white, but those same HR clowns are going to hire you, and they can spot an outsider a mile away.
If you're male, forget about it completely. Even if they did hire you, you'd want to suicide in about four days.
You'd have better luck being a cold hire with no prior background in securities regulation. HR at F500 companies has its own language and culture. The moment you enter their lair, you'd quickly be seated in that special part of the foyer with Sydney, Mohammad and Juglis.
I'm willing to work in any field so long as they'll hire me. Might have to start a post to get more ideas on decent paying jobs that don't require previous experience or any specific degree.
You have a golden opportunity now to start your own company. So many of the big companies now are getting decimated in bankruptcies. They aren't able to start over again as they did originally. So now is your chance.
Start small but have a plan for constant growth.
Don't be afraid to work long hours.
Never be afraid to put on work gloves and go through your companies garbage to see how resources are being used/misused.
Always keep good paper records. Start keeping even more records during any incident that gives you a weird feeling that something ain't right. These extra records might just save your ass at some point in the future when you figure out what that weirdness was all about.
Excuse me, but I find this comment to be heteronormalizing and therefore bigoted. Please respect my sensibilities, even after I ignore yours and burn your house down since the media says you're privileged.
My attitude is that I don't care if nobody else in the country has a problem with their messaging. I won't buy it. Maybe they'll even manage to trick me by owning the company that I buy from instead. But they made me angry and I'm not going to knowingly buy their product ever again.
It all started with a credit card company back in the 70s that kept turning me down when I was approved by everybody else. After I started my own business I never accepted that card. It was a great week if I could personally throw one of their regional reps out the door. I'm retired now and they're out of business.
Unwoke.hr is a good start, but it doesn't go far enough. I'd love to hear some ideas on how to dismantle the HR system and turn the functioning part in SaaS or to use a SaaS based system to eliminate the need for HR. Or a way to have employees that just don't interact with each other, that don't interact with the company.
The gig economy partially addresses this issue, but also creates a whole other set of problems. What is shows is that there are workable solutions out there. We just need a new paradigm.
No need to reinvent the wheel. HR used to be known as the Personnel Department. They typed up the paperwork after the Manager hired you. No input, no decision making.
Except that there's the culture, the laws and the bureaucracy, that the problem isn't human resources itself. It's the system that's been created that requires a human resources department. It's the way that feminists infiltrated the system, because they couldn't start by changing laws that were unreasonable. They attacked the workplace first.
The company needs human resources, because the corporate and office environments have created that need. That system creates an unnecessary power structure that is being abused by the people who made the need to create it.
Thanks for mentioning https://www.unwoke.hr/ . First I've heard of it! Literally was thinking there should be a site like this for companies that reject the leftist bullshit. Looking to change jobs soon. Been at my current company for years and I've seen the insidious creep of leftist clown-world politics infect everything about the company culture. Can't take it anymore.
This is 100% accurate. Tires aren't controversal and no one cares if they have Goodyear or Michelin (but we do now). This is a warning to every corporation that letting the radical left cuck you means a boycott from the right. AKA get woke go broke.
Now companies that thought it was safe to bend the knee to every LGBT BLM flavor the the week political movement will have to think twice. Either we segregate politically or companies learn to stop playing these stupid games to begin with. I don't know the politics of the people that make the chair I'm sitting in and I don't want to.
Tires aren't controversal and no one cares if they have Goodyear or Michelin (but we do now).
This, so much this! Beans, tires, flour, shaving razors etc. aren't exactly status symbols. They are simple tools and commodities we purchase to get through life. There are other options out there, pedes and we will buy them or do without.
Yeah right - these people do not give a fuck. They will keep doing it and doing it and doing it until it is normalized behaviour. "Of course the company that sells tires has a policy against displaying conservative values. Eveyone does! That's just common sense!"
It's about shifting that overton window; it's about shifting perception on what is acceptable. Even if some companies go down in fucking flames; it'll all be worth it.
Everything they do is about shifting perception - make the currently unacceptable not only normal and acceptable, but expected and demanded.
Pedophilia normalization push is coming hard over the next 10 years. The time for conservatives to rise up and put these people down has long since passed. Every day we let this charade go on longer, another person's perception on reality goes into the toilet. How many of you are going to let your childrens minds (and bodies) be raped before you find the normalization of degeneracy, hatred towards whites and conservatives and the general horrible policies to have gone too far?
I wonder what you folks think we're going to do after 2024...
Because another 4 years isn't going to stop these people - the foreign/domestic enemies have been at it in this country for over a century, and the biggest foreign enemy (China) has been helping for over 50 years.
All they need is a decade, a few more big moves, and you'll be their slave forever. With this COVID bullshit, something tells me they expect that within the next ten years they'll have us all wrapped up.
If anything, the four years of Trump has only emboldened them to act more and push harder. If gigantic moves aren't made LIKE RIGHT NOW, they're going to get what they want and I wish you luck trying to escape a communist society (world) with the technology that exists today. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, no escaping. Death will be the only way out of the fresh hell they have planned.
look at what hes doing with kodak.
Its the model of what hes doing. we will re build all of our staple industries.
cut out the HR dept. and the SJW's see RED BULL ( I have personally fired 22 moderate..progressive employees in the last 3 years!) guess what happened, we're doing the same amount of work with 4 of us full disclosure I am now using a friends company who makes my product to also pack in out and deliver it as a completed item! saved me 36 K month! go figure.
Daddy is doing WAY MORE then most everyday GEOTUS supporters even know. Its up to us Pedes to continue to help people understand! love you joggers MAGA!
bad workers and were caught abusing the internet and stealing product and clocking each other in and out and always having an excuse for why they were late etc etc. the ones I still have, have been with us for 31 years 16 years 11 years and 5 years. My brother for a time was in charge of the hiring process..needless to say he was bought out and let go too.
man I wish I could brother, I'm in commiefornia and thinking about moving.
I wish you the best of luck pede! if my situation changes i'll look you up good luck hope you get here and become one of us. MAGA!
Just as a side note: it's legal in the U.S. to fire employees because of their politics. For better or for worse, that's a field you can play offensive on if you want to dance around the legal fights (you'll get sued because someone will claim you targeted a protected class, like skin color, when you really targeted an unprotected class, politics).
The owners and main shareholders of the company made bank. That was the point. They don't give a shit about the long term viability of the company and certainly not about the society in which it in theory exists. It's about making bank, and they did.
I've been putting off getting 4 new tires on my car for way too long. The factory tires on my car cost like 1500 dollars. I guess they don't want my money....noted
Me and My friend went to TGI Fridays yesterday for lunch, was pretty much empty, got a table right in front of a TV, we asked the man who sat us if we could change the channel to Fox news since the dinning room was empty, he was about to change it and then a waitress came up from behind and asked "what are you doing", he replied "since the restaurant is empty these customers want to watch Fox news", she quickly replied "No, no, no, we don't put political stuff in the restaurant", SHE WAS WEARING A BLACK LIVES MATTER MASK!!!!!! We walked out immediately!!
ANYONE UP FOR A TGI FRIDAYS HIT??
I haven't set foot in a TGI Fridays in almost 25 years now. Can't say I'll make any impact, but I'll keep on keepin' on. Do you ever think of what we could do to the country if we stopped buying for a year? It crosses my mind every day.
Called there corporate office, waiting on a call back from there support team, or whatever they call it. I really don't like to be so petty, but at this point the FAR-left COMMIES need a wake up call!! Fight 🔥with 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!!!!!!
The Human Resources arm of corporate America is the same general core of people that are controlling federal employee unions, teachers unions and university boards.
This needs to be really looked at critically, the entire structural foundation of our nation is infected with a creeping socialist cancer that if we don't do something to mitigate it soon, it will take over the country from within.
Here is something Trump will need to focus on. The investment from these Globalists require corporate activism in return. China does this as well. Any money demands submission. They are like a mafia with many wise guys giving envelopes to the person who was just made. They don't invest in bulk - they have a network of institutions and fund managers that showers them with money. This article linked explains how they hope to do more of this.
I hope we will ban federal dollars used on this extreme communist 'diversity' training (=telling white people they are all racist and evil for some reason)
Us being passed off effects them more since we work and have money to spend. I can never understand why the big businesses cave to people who don't even work.
Shot right across the bow of every corporation in America. You want to pull this shit we're going after you. BLM shirts,signs,masks, are cool with you but you want to disallow MAGA, Trump 2020, blue lives matter, all lives matter, fuck White lives matter? You want to play hypocrisy then we'll play! We can put you on blast as well and we have one giant hammer behind us..Donald J Trump.
Holy hell I've been waiting for this to get started. Yes, of course we have to start wrecking these companies. Offense is the only defense with this nonsense. We start wrecking them for NOT supporting MAGA and make it clear 'silence is violence' so they'd better start or get put on the shitlist.
Trump is starting to get back into right proper Emperor form and its the best time to do it. Excelllllent.
Human Resources, according to the 2016 Bureau of Labor Statistics, is 71% female. Unfortunately for all women, it seems the women in charge in corporate America make very very bad political choices.
Most HR reps Ive dealt with are shady as fuck and extremely backstabby. One was super cool. I miss her. The new one? Causes all sorts of problems creates more work for people that hire so her job is slightly easier. Has us duplicating information thats already on the application (which is required even if you submit a resume) on a new form just to save her the trouble of getting familiar with where the info is already at. Started trying to make her own judgement calls on who I can hire, outside of company guidelines. Wouldnt let me hire a super sharp and clean half asian dude because he had a petty theft on his record, but let me hire a dude that was extremely violent and had a rap sheet a mile long. (I found this out by looking them up myself on my own time) Immediately tried to start digging up dirt on me and trying to plant seeds of doubt in my supervisors ears. Luckily none of it worked; Im squeaky clean, my employees respect and like me, and my supervisor shut her shit down quick. Started doing these exit interviews which would be cool except the goal is not to actually conduct an exit interview its an attempt at getting dirt from someone that may not like me. Too bad I treat people very well and no one is playing ball on that one.
If you cant tell I dont fucking like HR. The entire female side of the office is just drama and social groups that try to 'get' the other group constantly. Cant we just show up, get our jobs done and go home?
Yup. We have some soyboy engineers. Annoying, passive aggressive, and not half as smart as they think they are. Also too good to get their hands dirty once in a while; which I guess is ok because if I can help them that means one of my people isnt working and needs the money.
Those guys arent too bad with my job though; our 'spheres' dont interact very much. Different departments, different supervisors, and hell I own part of the company. I wouldnt want to work in a position where they were 'above' me in the company hierarchy though. Fuck that. They lack leadership and testosterone.
Non-political used to work. But that's when all were unified toward what was best for our nation, regardless of how we got there. That has changed. Even patriotism is now political. So you have to make a stand.
Just know that I will not support those that bend the knee to the insane.
Coopers last a long time but are ultimately a cheap low end tire. They usually develop weird noise and vibrations while having shit tons of tread left...and it wont balance out. That said, if I needed a good long lasting set for like a work truck, or I was down on my luck, I wouldnt hesitate to get Coopers.
Im currently running some Cooper Cobras on my 66 Dodge, Yokohamas on my Colorado, and some Hankooks on my commuter truck (s10).
I have an 8 year old set that still have absurd amounts of tread...I put over 100,000 miles on them no joke. They just make some pretty bad road noises and one or two have a wobble at 35 and then vibration at 70+. That said, they were on the s10 which is all of 3500lbs with me and my equipment (when I worked in the field) and saw a fairly easy life of mostly highway use. Bought the truck in 2012 with 84k, blew one of the original Tiger Paws, put those on around 85,000 miles and now have 213,000. Did NOT realize they were that old until I put some new rims and tires on...then checked the receipt in the glove box and double checked the date on the sidewall. Yup, made in 2012.
If companies are feeling bold enough to indulge in the political climate they need to be trust busted. They obviously are weather ballooning if they can overt enact policy
Did anyone else notice in Goodyear's press release that while they denied doing it, they then admitted that they ban political speech but promote social justice? How is no one talking about the bullshit press release
I don't even want you to support Trump. I want you to stfu and make tires.
"We make tires?"
President Trump is effectively asking us to fight these corporations
They make fantastic tires. Run them on my racist pickup truck!
Michelin ?? Not sure
Michelins are expensive. but as usual, they're the best.
Only tire I'll use on my motorcycles!
Are they German? They make great tires
Is Michelin owned by the detestable French?
Cooper, Continental, Yokohama
Can confirm Yokohama; they have a factory here in central Mississippi I'm trying to get hired on at.
Bridgestone isn't communist, but I don't know if they make any in the USA.
Sumitomo as well
I've heard of amateur drifters and race/time attack cars that typically burn through tires pretty quick using Federals and not hating them. Bonus that the company is from Taiwan, so like the opposite of CCP.
I just got four Firestone tires for my American car. They're the best tires I've ever owned, but I don't know about the company. Wish I could have researched more before I needed them.
American company but a subsidiary of Bridgestone, Japanese.
God DAMN IT!
I am not even surprised that trucks are racist now.
Nice! I run them too but on my white privilege SUV!
I just use the road tread so I can build up as much speed as possible when heading for commies!
Cooper tires are pretty much the only brand you can get in the military overseas also... used them once no big complaints here. You can also get Bridgestone which are American made tires.
I DAVE BRIDGESTONE ON MY JEEP. LOVE THEM
Dave Bridgestone, i went to school with him, nice guy.
Dave Bridgestone - a patriot for the ages
Name checks out
Dave Bridgestone once dove off a bridge to save a flock of doves.
Please look a little deeper. Shandong? Cooper seems to have a big deal going on in China.
Bf fuckin goodrich baby. Expensive but if youve got a fast car or 4wd truck theyre the best!
I’m running all terrains on the Jeep. Had km2’s great tires
Yessir, also running ats on the old jeep. If i happen to see ya out there ill throw ya the jeep wave👋
I'm running them on my Outback. Bit loud, but good tires.
And aktually good tires
We must fight them. We must form companies that act proper and put them.out of business
RIGHT ON.
I think the're getting it now !
Commie Corporations were indoctrinated through ISO9001 and each was infiltrated by the EU Commie Banker Family Pedophiles.
Message received. Sent them a message through their website and boycotting. MAGA
Did the same. Used my real email. Told them I'd "...never buy your tires again and hope you choke on woke dick."
Go spray paint SETH RICH on the building. Make sure it's a corporate store and not a franchise before you go.
Executive: "How does this help us sell more tires??"
Advertising Firm "Tires?!"
I love memes that are so well known you don't even have to post the actual picture.
$?
gay noise
derp
reeeeee
By signaling to the world we are down with the NWO so our overseas plants with slave laborers (and no EPA to hassle us) stay open. Oh yea we also use those overseas plants to launder money to avoid US taxes
but but mineral fling is a nutzy
IN CHINA.
WHILE SUCKING THIER WIFES BOYFRIENDS COCK!!!
This so fucking much.
Make tires, soda, fast food, whatever, I do not want to hear about your dumbfuck, half baked political views, just make your fucking product. You are a soda, I don't give a fuck about your opinion on anything other than soda.
it's what these stupid marketing professors are teaching in marketing 4.0. take a social stand. it's stupid as heck. look at the latest textbooks from Phillip Kotler. He thinks marketing is going to save the world. BARF.
http://www.philkotler.com/2018/11/28/brand-activism-from-purpose-to-action/
you make razor blades and soda. shut the heck up. let me shave and drink soda without you lecturing me what to believe.
You're spot on in regards to what the PR departments are producing. They're obsessed with social media, and believe it's the only way to gauge public opinion. At Syracuse University, I saw a student PR project regarding a lower class minority school that had high truancy and low retention rates. What was the proposed solution? More social media outreach from the school and more bus transportation. They also refused to bring attention to what the family makeup looked like for the students in this district.

I notice his book has lots of advice for ceos, but that he’s not a successful ceo himself. Why would anyone ever believe that garbage?
BUY MY RAZORS YOU RAPIST!
No joke, if you go to the shaving subreddits and tell everyone you're ditching Gillette in favor of double edge or straight razors they will cheer at you... unless you say the reason for your switch was the wokeness. They will LITERALLY tell you to buy the multiblade razor you bigot rapist.
Classic reddit.
DO MY BIDDING, BRAND
That is still my favorite public freak-out
And if you want to stop employees arguing, plain shirts only or uniform.
I wonder how many police departments have contracts to use goodyear tires? Maybe time to evaluate that decision.
The Michelin man to the rescue.
Will make sure my Fire Chief husband knows what’s going on. Public service vehicles don’t just stop at the PD’s.
Too late motherfuckers.
Bias-plys Muthafuka
Doakes would hate BLM.
Look at that low stock price Muthafucka
Holy shit!!!!! GEOTUS really does play 4D chess. This is wild!!!!!!!!! You guys are right!
100% whatever happened to shutting the fuck up about politics and religion at work?
Do your campaigning on your own fucking time.
Propaganda has to be pervasive. It's in our schools, at work, in our hobbies (see sports), in all of our media, and in our higher education. They want their politics in EVERYTHING.
This was Obama's move. Put on your footy PJs and subvert thanksgiving dinner.
Every company would be better off without an HR department. Also, never date a woman in HR.
colleges admissions offices have entered the chat
Zzzzzzzzing!!!!! 😂
Yep. They become protected despite being incredibly worthless.
Have you ever had to fire a non-white person with cause? HR is a nightmare and you have to jump through so many hoops. Why? Because they know this group will cry racism at any consequences being levied against them.
Is the name of this company also the surname of a former democrat Senator of the same state?
Or is it the one that likes to be "Quiet".
fucking hell... the Day of the Rope can't come soon enough.
This is the symptom. Attornies and judges (who used to be attornies) are the reason for this.
Attorney here. Attorneys are responsible for a lot of society’s ailments...just know that there were also attorneys fighting on the other side who go largely unremembered.
Covid bullshit killed 2/3 of my business. My bankruptcy attorney has brought me to tears with how amazing she is. I would be completely sunk without her.
How did she manage to save you? Also, im feeling for you mate, hope you pull out of this with at least some upside
Two of my stores are under the same property management company and we were able to keep one open. She was able to get them to agree to pennies on the dollar for what they wanted to get from us for breaking one lease.
Thank you for your fight Sir. I imagine it takes a lot to stay friendly/polite in some company.
It's not so much the law as it is simple politics.
They are literally putting sulfuric acid on the skin of society, slapping a bandaid over it and shouting out "Aha! it's an old wound!"
Nice metaphor.
Forget firing, have you ever tried to promote somebody else over a non-white person? It doesn't even matter if the person you're promoting isn't white, you'll get a whole argument about the SJW stack of privilege and discrimination.
I would only ever hire white Caucasians as a business owner and avoid this nonsense altogether.
Thanks to #metoo one almost wants to say only white caucasian men. And thanks to the bake me a cake assholes straight ones at that. At what point do SJWs realize that being litigious assholes turns them into a liability.
On the Brightside; it's likely the last bad choice brand X will ever get too make
And they always end up doing the most damage because they were told all throughout their lives that everything is about race.
Woke assed crazy women and lesbians run these persecution departments.
This 100% especially when they have HR as the first round in hiring
HR as the first round of hiring is such bullshit
Why do I want to deal with a liberal arts major when I’m trying to get hired into stem or any other expertise? They know fuck all about what the job requires and only want pillow talk from the applicants. Fuck HR
Recruiters and HR pre screens are the absolute worst. They so obviously have no clue what the position they’re hiring for actually is and then why you try to explain to them the synonym for the buzzword they were told to get they get offended.
Equal Opportunity
Muh equity issue!
Tell her to suck your Title 9 inches
Lol... I've been with my wife since high school. Been married for 27 years and we are very happy. She is a conservative HR department director. They do exist... but, rare like a unicorn.
Being married to high school girlfriend past 7 years is rarer than zebra unicorns. Congrats, you avoided being a statistic.
What are the stats on that out of curiosity?
A fair question. The best "official" stats put teen marriage divorce rates at 59% at the 15 year mark. Which doesn't sound too bad, since that isn't too far off divorce rates in general.
Crazy things do happen. My wife and I got married in the seventies and have gone on for damn near fifty years. She went to a reunion and seventy percent of her high school class was divorced.
Kudos, pede! Half a CENTURY!!
Thank you, friend.
👆🏼👆🏼👆🏼
My first wife worked in HR. Notice I said "first" wife.
HR workers roundly deserve a spot on the "Enemies of the People" list alongside the media.
Yep, I said that earlier to a coworker of mine:
It's not about MAGA hats. Trump just put corporate America on notice: if you target my supporters I will hurt your business.
Trump's tweets have shifted the entire daily trajectory of stock indexes in a matter of hours. Imagine having a Trump tweet talking about your corporation alone. Trump just showed that he is more than willing to call out companies who go woke.
Looks like Goodyear has dropped 2.6% so far today.
https://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/gt
Serves them right for rolling into stupid town.
Wish it was down twenty.
They're down 70.1% over the last 5 years if it makes you feel any better
This is more of get broke go woke than the reverse.
Go broke, get woke, go even more broke.
😂🤣
You're probably referring to percent, but I don't think Goodyear has $20/share to lose. You could theoretically go to negative valuation stock is what I've heard, and honestly, that's probably where it should be based on how shitty their tires are.
Hits to a company:s bottom line take a while to impact stock price. when they release their quarterly earnings in October, expect a 20% drop!
NEWS FLASH: liberal city dwellers ride buses, so don't drive cars or buy tires. midwestern conservatives do! bye bye HoodYear tires!!
They look tired.
They made a lot of that back by close of market, but the recovery won't last. Their response to this was disgustingly off-target, pretending we simply misinterpreted the slide. If they had said they were going to review the training materials because this didin't represent their policy of political inclusivity, they could've saved face with all but the left and the left would quickly stop caring.
What did they do?
https://thedonald.win/p/Gv6N8QCn/goodyear-issues-its-response-/c/
The telltales in their response are the same font, weasel phrasing to say specifically where the document didn't come from and where it wasn't used, and especially the lack of forceful denunciation of its contents or its author.
Their press release is an admission by omission that this is in fact company policy, and they let it be dictated by middle management so corporate could keep its hands clean.
Cheers mate
Not only that but he put everyone on notice on just how much power he really does have.
Have you got a link to the tweet? And some more info about what goodyear did?
I want to see more of this. 4D chess.
I had a co-worker get up in the middle of a diversity training class and turn in his resignation. The part about how to address John coming back as Janice pushed him over the edge. That guy is my hero. It was awesome. (he was retirement eligible, so he just said "F' this!"
Would've LOVED to be a fly on the wall in that meeting. Thankfully, my company has not forced us to endure that bullshit, but I have no intention of sitting quietly through any diversity training I'm subjected to. Did he give them a piece of his mind?
Ok, well...filibuster.
White guys teaching the shit make it pretty painless. That was the last one I had to go to. But even online license renewal courses in this drek are horrible.
Mental disorder
Turns out Toby was actually one of the best HR guys you could have in an office. Calm, patient, reasonable, and a nice guy to a fault.
He took out his frustrations by strangling people off the clock. True gentleman!
I managed a department in a Fortune 500... We got a new "Chief Diversity Officer" and she made management start taking these completely retarded computer-based trainings about misgendering and racism in the workplace
One day we got a mass email stating that a manager was fired due to "sexual assault allegations"
I kept my office door propped wide open whenever dealing with female employees afterwards. I also made the employee sit at the opposite end of my office
I refuse to have one on one closed door meetings with women who are at a lower "level" than me in the business hierarchy. No chance in hell.
I’m a high school teacher, and whenever a female Student wants to talk to me between classes, at lunch, or during my planning period, I walk out into the hall and talk to them there (where the cameras are).
Hope this works, HR corporate culture is cancer
AIDS is higher on the victim hierarchy, therefore allowed to insult Cancer
Hahaha. Cancer is pissed. Love it
HR is responsible for all this woke bullshit in the past decade. 15 years ago, no one gave to fucking shits about this crap. Then the millennials started entering the work for with their entitled bullshit woke offensiveness when they didn't get what they wanted and we ended up with this bullshit. FUCK Millenials, FUCK HR and FUCK WOKENESS!
Source: I'm a millennial and fucking hate anyone in my generation that stands for this horseshit. You're not cool, you're a huge faggot that deserves nothing in life.
Couldn't agree more. I'm also a millennial. First job I had out of college, found the company had a "learning to work with millennials" HR course required for all the older generation that worked there. Fuck that, new people entering the work force need to learn how to work with the experienced folks. And all the inclusion bullshit just goes beyond retarded.
Also I noped out of that company mainly due to the dumb culture
As a Gen Xer I guess I shouldn't feel bad for my intense distrust of all Millenials until they prove othewise?
Add in excessively groomed facial hair, nose rings, Harry Potter bumper stickers, and loudly colored giant tattoos and you've learned why I don't trust half the staff at my kid's junior high!
Daily reminder that every HR department is filled with pink-haired, fat lesbian women named Karen.
Honestly, makes me want to go into HR. Gonna need a job after college, HR seems easy enough. Plus, I can use my common sense to prevent dumb decisions and toxic company cultures.
There are no straight white dudes in HR, Ben. I’d reconsider that plan.
I've actually considered this before, because it would help to have people with our values taking over those departments. Problem is the current management is going to insure that you essentially have zero upwards mobility.
Maybe I'll just pretend to be the most flamboyantly gay guy in the world to become the head of an HR department and then do a 180.
lol as long as I have a job in a state I wanna be in then I don't really care what the job is. Keeping options open.
If you're a paleface of the gender that has been getting all the goodies for the last 5000 years - uh, don't call us, we'll call you.
If you're female you'll make it, maybe even if you're white, but those same HR clowns are going to hire you, and they can spot an outsider a mile away.
If you're male, forget about it completely. Even if they did hire you, you'd want to suicide in about four days.
You'd have better luck being a cold hire with no prior background in securities regulation. HR at F500 companies has its own language and culture. The moment you enter their lair, you'd quickly be seated in that special part of the foyer with Sydney, Mohammad and Juglis.
I'm willing to work in any field so long as they'll hire me. Might have to start a post to get more ideas on decent paying jobs that don't require previous experience or any specific degree.
You have a golden opportunity now to start your own company. So many of the big companies now are getting decimated in bankruptcies. They aren't able to start over again as they did originally. So now is your chance.
Start small but have a plan for constant growth.
Don't be afraid to work long hours.
Never be afraid to put on work gloves and go through your companies garbage to see how resources are being used/misused.
Always keep good paper records. Start keeping even more records during any incident that gives you a weird feeling that something ain't right. These extra records might just save your ass at some point in the future when you figure out what that weirdness was all about.
10 points to Animal House !
I have a couple of hotties in mine, but the manager is definitely a clam licker.
Well, she'll have them all licking clam by December. Those types of pure cancer.
DAMNED STRAIGHT!
he is a genius...
Excuse me, but I find this comment to be heteronormalizing and therefore bigoted. Please respect my sensibilities, even after I ignore yours and burn your house down since the media says you're privileged.
Crack the HR departments in half, for God's sake. Finance will cheer loudly.
Can confirm. Would cheer loudy. Source: Am in Finance.
I just canceled my Amazon prime and I let them know why in the survey. They better start waking up.
They need to start paying taxes.
Yeah, I wish he'd call out that piece of shit who runs their social media.
everyone that cancels needs to link that fb post in their Why
My attitude is that I don't care if nobody else in the country has a problem with their messaging. I won't buy it. Maybe they'll even manage to trick me by owning the company that I buy from instead. But they made me angry and I'm not going to knowingly buy their product ever again.
It all started with a credit card company back in the 70s that kept turning me down when I was approved by everybody else. After I started my own business I never accepted that card. It was a great week if I could personally throw one of their regional reps out the door. I'm retired now and they're out of business.
With the state of UK, Those are the same thing
The reverse colonization is a nightmare.
Dismantle Human Resources.
Unwoke.hr is a good start, but it doesn't go far enough. I'd love to hear some ideas on how to dismantle the HR system and turn the functioning part in SaaS or to use a SaaS based system to eliminate the need for HR. Or a way to have employees that just don't interact with each other, that don't interact with the company.
The gig economy partially addresses this issue, but also creates a whole other set of problems. What is shows is that there are workable solutions out there. We just need a new paradigm.
No need to reinvent the wheel. HR used to be known as the Personnel Department. They typed up the paperwork after the Manager hired you. No input, no decision making.
Except that there's the culture, the laws and the bureaucracy, that the problem isn't human resources itself. It's the system that's been created that requires a human resources department. It's the way that feminists infiltrated the system, because they couldn't start by changing laws that were unreasonable. They attacked the workplace first.
The company needs human resources, because the corporate and office environments have created that need. That system creates an unnecessary power structure that is being abused by the people who made the need to create it.
It creates unearned power.
Or we could just, you know, not do any of that and strictly hire the best people for the job?
The term Human Resources is demeaning. They should go back to calling that department Personnel.
Thanks for mentioning https://www.unwoke.hr/ . First I've heard of it! Literally was thinking there should be a site like this for companies that reject the leftist bullshit. Looking to change jobs soon. Been at my current company for years and I've seen the insidious creep of leftist clown-world politics infect everything about the company culture. Can't take it anymore.
This is 100% accurate. Tires aren't controversal and no one cares if they have Goodyear or Michelin (but we do now). This is a warning to every corporation that letting the radical left cuck you means a boycott from the right. AKA get woke go broke.
Now companies that thought it was safe to bend the knee to every LGBT BLM flavor the the week political movement will have to think twice. Either we segregate politically or companies learn to stop playing these stupid games to begin with. I don't know the politics of the people that make the chair I'm sitting in and I don't want to.
This, so much this! Beans, tires, flour, shaving razors etc. aren't exactly status symbols. They are simple tools and commodities we purchase to get through life. There are other options out there, pedes and we will buy them or do without.
Yeah right - these people do not give a fuck. They will keep doing it and doing it and doing it until it is normalized behaviour. "Of course the company that sells tires has a policy against displaying conservative values. Eveyone does! That's just common sense!"
It's about shifting that overton window; it's about shifting perception on what is acceptable. Even if some companies go down in fucking flames; it'll all be worth it.
Everything they do is about shifting perception - make the currently unacceptable not only normal and acceptable, but expected and demanded.
Pedophilia normalization push is coming hard over the next 10 years. The time for conservatives to rise up and put these people down has long since passed. Every day we let this charade go on longer, another person's perception on reality goes into the toilet. How many of you are going to let your childrens minds (and bodies) be raped before you find the normalization of degeneracy, hatred towards whites and conservatives and the general horrible policies to have gone too far?
I wonder what you folks think we're going to do after 2024...
Because another 4 years isn't going to stop these people - the foreign/domestic enemies have been at it in this country for over a century, and the biggest foreign enemy (China) has been helping for over 50 years.
All they need is a decade, a few more big moves, and you'll be their slave forever. With this COVID bullshit, something tells me they expect that within the next ten years they'll have us all wrapped up.
If anything, the four years of Trump has only emboldened them to act more and push harder. If gigantic moves aren't made LIKE RIGHT NOW, they're going to get what they want and I wish you luck trying to escape a communist society (world) with the technology that exists today. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, no escaping. Death will be the only way out of the fresh hell they have planned.
If we're relying on re-election to fix the issues that could have been fixed in he past four...that's a huge gamble. What's Plan B exactly?
Tires are something nearly everyone has to buy every so often. So I will take my business elsewhere. Lot of other less woke companies to go with.
It is not something the people that they are pandering to have to buy.
KEK. truth
look at what hes doing with kodak. Its the model of what hes doing. we will re build all of our staple industries.
cut out the HR dept. and the SJW's see RED BULL ( I have personally fired 22 moderate..progressive employees in the last 3 years!) guess what happened, we're doing the same amount of work with 4 of us full disclosure I am now using a friends company who makes my product to also pack in out and deliver it as a completed item! saved me 36 K month! go figure.
Daddy is doing WAY MORE then most everyday GEOTUS supporters even know. Its up to us Pedes to continue to help people understand! love you joggers MAGA!
Were they fired because they were bad workers or because of their politics?
bad workers and were caught abusing the internet and stealing product and clocking each other in and out and always having an excuse for why they were late etc etc. the ones I still have, have been with us for 31 years 16 years 11 years and 5 years. My brother for a time was in charge of the hiring process..needless to say he was bought out and let go too.
You want to hire an aussie veteran? Im happy to sweep the floors as long as i can become American
man I wish I could brother, I'm in commiefornia and thinking about moving. I wish you the best of luck pede! if my situation changes i'll look you up good luck hope you get here and become one of us. MAGA!
Definitely mate, move to the free USofA. When you do ill come help. Have a good one mate.
Just as a side note: it's legal in the U.S. to fire employees because of their politics. For better or for worse, that's a field you can play offensive on if you want to dance around the legal fights (you'll get sued because someone will claim you targeted a protected class, like skin color, when you really targeted an unprotected class, politics).
Grab them by the pussies!
Nothing good has come from corporate America. Every business has dropped in quality once the main owner gives it over to the share holders.
FUCK CORPORATE
The owners and main shareholders of the company made bank. That was the point. They don't give a shit about the long term viability of the company and certainly not about the society in which it in theory exists. It's about making bank, and they did.
Annnndd they will be going to Hell for selling out their own people. .... not worth those extra big bucks.
Hope more people wake up and realize BLM is a Communist terror front for laundering money to the Democrat Party.
I've been putting off getting 4 new tires on my car for way too long. The factory tires on my car cost like 1500 dollars. I guess they don't want my money....noted
This is how you do it. One at a time. You can’t take them all on at once. But we can make change one at a time.
The alinsky method
Were gonna fight Fire with Fire! Let their pockets hurt.
Me and My friend went to TGI Fridays yesterday for lunch, was pretty much empty, got a table right in front of a TV, we asked the man who sat us if we could change the channel to Fox news since the dinning room was empty, he was about to change it and then a waitress came up from behind and asked "what are you doing", he replied "since the restaurant is empty these customers want to watch Fox news", she quickly replied "No, no, no, we don't put political stuff in the restaurant", SHE WAS WEARING A BLACK LIVES MATTER MASK!!!!!! We walked out immediately!! ANYONE UP FOR A TGI FRIDAYS HIT??
I haven't set foot in a TGI Fridays in almost 25 years now. Can't say I'll make any impact, but I'll keep on keepin' on. Do you ever think of what we could do to the country if we stopped buying for a year? It crosses my mind every day.
Called there corporate office, waiting on a call back from there support team, or whatever they call it. I really don't like to be so petty, but at this point the FAR-left COMMIES need a wake up call!! Fight 🔥with 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!!!!!!
Either politically neutral, or politically free. Try to pick and choose, then you choose your own repercussions.
The Human Resources arm of corporate America is the same general core of people that are controlling federal employee unions, teachers unions and university boards.
This needs to be really looked at critically, the entire structural foundation of our nation is infected with a creeping socialist cancer that if we don't do something to mitigate it soon, it will take over the country from within.
Here is something Trump will need to focus on. The investment from these Globalists require corporate activism in return. China does this as well. Any money demands submission. They are like a mafia with many wise guys giving envelopes to the person who was just made. They don't invest in bulk - they have a network of institutions and fund managers that showers them with money. This article linked explains how they hope to do more of this.
https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/new-sec-rule-means-holdings-dalio-einhorn-soros-and-more-could-go-completely-dark
I hope we will ban federal dollars used on this extreme communist 'diversity' training (=telling white people they are all racist and evil for some reason)
Goodyear PR: “Guys, let’s focus our next set of promotions on race complexities.”
Goodyear Marketing: “Focus on racial complexities good idea.”
How appropriate
There’s too many alternatives for their product to try to pull this bullshit.
I have yet to see a Leftist who can even change a tire. Leftists buy cheap Chinese tires. It's economic darwinism.
Leftists should be tired.
...tired of losing!
Goodyear will be making layoff's soon instead of tires
https://youtu.be/pZy4QXLKHlI <---- Ryan Long just nailed silicon valley and all these idiotic companies. Hilarious.
Good, because I've already grown sick of the virtue-signaling on the company business social network.
I will say that watching all the sack-cloth and ashes, hand-wringing apologies has provide me with a list of folks to avoid.
Us being passed off effects them more since we work and have money to spend. I can never understand why the big businesses cave to people who don't even work.
These companies need to know that we do care and are looking at their activism. And it will affect our purchasing decisions.
Shot right across the bow of every corporation in America. You want to pull this shit we're going after you. BLM shirts,signs,masks, are cool with you but you want to disallow MAGA, Trump 2020, blue lives matter, all lives matter, fuck White lives matter? You want to play hypocrisy then we'll play! We can put you on blast as well and we have one giant hammer behind us..Donald J Trump.
Holy hell I've been waiting for this to get started. Yes, of course we have to start wrecking these companies. Offense is the only defense with this nonsense. We start wrecking them for NOT supporting MAGA and make it clear 'silence is violence' so they'd better start or get put on the shitlist.
Trump is starting to get back into right proper Emperor form and its the best time to do it. Excelllllent.
Human Resources, according to the 2016 Bureau of Labor Statistics, is 71% female. Unfortunately for all women, it seems the women in charge in corporate America make very very bad political choices.
Most HR reps Ive dealt with are shady as fuck and extremely backstabby. One was super cool. I miss her. The new one? Causes all sorts of problems creates more work for people that hire so her job is slightly easier. Has us duplicating information thats already on the application (which is required even if you submit a resume) on a new form just to save her the trouble of getting familiar with where the info is already at. Started trying to make her own judgement calls on who I can hire, outside of company guidelines. Wouldnt let me hire a super sharp and clean half asian dude because he had a petty theft on his record, but let me hire a dude that was extremely violent and had a rap sheet a mile long. (I found this out by looking them up myself on my own time) Immediately tried to start digging up dirt on me and trying to plant seeds of doubt in my supervisors ears. Luckily none of it worked; Im squeaky clean, my employees respect and like me, and my supervisor shut her shit down quick. Started doing these exit interviews which would be cool except the goal is not to actually conduct an exit interview its an attempt at getting dirt from someone that may not like me. Too bad I treat people very well and no one is playing ball on that one.
If you cant tell I dont fucking like HR. The entire female side of the office is just drama and social groups that try to 'get' the other group constantly. Cant we just show up, get our jobs done and go home?
Yup. We have some soyboy engineers. Annoying, passive aggressive, and not half as smart as they think they are. Also too good to get their hands dirty once in a while; which I guess is ok because if I can help them that means one of my people isnt working and needs the money.
Those guys arent too bad with my job though; our 'spheres' dont interact very much. Different departments, different supervisors, and hell I own part of the company. I wouldnt want to work in a position where they were 'above' me in the company hierarchy though. Fuck that. They lack leadership and testosterone.
Non-political used to work. But that's when all were unified toward what was best for our nation, regardless of how we got there. That has changed. Even patriotism is now political. So you have to make a stand.
Just know that I will not support those that bend the knee to the insane.
Coopers last a long time but are ultimately a cheap low end tire. They usually develop weird noise and vibrations while having shit tons of tread left...and it wont balance out. That said, if I needed a good long lasting set for like a work truck, or I was down on my luck, I wouldnt hesitate to get Coopers.
Im currently running some Cooper Cobras on my 66 Dodge, Yokohamas on my Colorado, and some Hankooks on my commuter truck (s10).
I have an 8 year old set that still have absurd amounts of tread...I put over 100,000 miles on them no joke. They just make some pretty bad road noises and one or two have a wobble at 35 and then vibration at 70+. That said, they were on the s10 which is all of 3500lbs with me and my equipment (when I worked in the field) and saw a fairly easy life of mostly highway use. Bought the truck in 2012 with 84k, blew one of the original Tiger Paws, put those on around 85,000 miles and now have 213,000. Did NOT realize they were that old until I put some new rims and tires on...then checked the receipt in the glove box and double checked the date on the sidewall. Yup, made in 2012.
If companies are feeling bold enough to indulge in the political climate they need to be trust busted. They obviously are weather ballooning if they can overt enact policy
Did anyone else notice in Goodyear's press release that while they denied doing it, they then admitted that they ban political speech but promote social justice? How is no one talking about the bullshit press release
I’ve yet to see a HR department that wasn’t filled with a substantial number of commies.
STABLE GENUIS LEVEL INTENSIFIES*
