I have companies I
go to that happen to be run by certain ethnic groups. If I want my car
repaired, I will go to a Mexican repair shop. They just do better. If
I want body work done, I go to an Anglo
shop. They are well run. If I want landscaping done I hire the Local
Hispanic guys, they cost more but they do a great job. If I want
Pizza.. yup, Italian. If I want my house repaired I hire that Irish guy
I know. He gets it done. If I want clothing made, a Korean guy I know
does a great job, A local lady who does my clothing repairs is Chinese,
When I need plumbing done, that Polish fellow from across town is the
call I make. Now to be fair, this is only one guys experience. I don't
believe for a minute that ethnicity has anything to do with it. They
are just really good at what they do and I call them to get the things
done I need done. IF I want Ribs, the place on west Madison in Chicago
is where I go. If I want soul food, there is a place on the south side I
frequent. I don't think Mexican Ribs even sounds good. SO, when I saw
this article, I thought, OK, who then is this company? What do they
have to commend them other than race for this work? What history is
there? What competence have they displayed. That is how these decisions
must be made, not by the color of their skin, but the competence they
possess.
