Minorities getting jobs over whites to fill company quotas?

I'd have to agree with you. I understand the concept of the action, but a concept and what it really does are 2 different things. I think it should be the best person for the job and most companies these days are so used to being proud of diversity in the workplace that I don't think that it would matter. Minorities are also just as educated as non-minorities and I would be offended to find out I got a job because of my heritage and not my merit. Or even that I got the job because I was a woman or over a certain age.
