Agree with this statement about Black people?

Ya , you wouldn't want a bunch of dirty jungle bunnies workin' for ya , huh???

I wouldn't say its just a racial thing alone, though it happens everyday everywhere around the world... and not just with african americans, but all other races, sexes and religions to boot. I'd say it is ignorance...

not only a name, but also a color, a religion, a sex, or a social standing could get you in or out of a job. I disagree with it as strongly as the next, but there is really not to much you can do about it. Try to prove that your salary is sub par due to the fact that you are female, even though you have your male counter parts walking in your shadow daily and they make more... Just like if it would be a race issue or a name issue... It sucks, believe me it does... but not much can be done about it or to prove it.

I'm pretty sure "clean" meant record-wise. Way to blow some shit out of poroprtion. Since Chewy's an HR person, I have no doubt that's where he was coming from.

My ex wife spells her name Shelagh, she almost changed it to Sheila because she felt that she was stigmatized by it.

My grandfather anglicized our German name to fit in. Dropped the Von and added "ham" .

Anyone, regardless of color that takes a normal name and bastardizes it into something unrecognizable, un-writable and unpronounceable - in my opinion - is setting up their children for a lifetime of issues with their name.

And don't even get me started on those that have to give the kid both the maiden name and paternal name so they can go through life with a hyphen and hours worth of frustration because most of the population has a 5th grade reading level and they often become confused at the notion of a hyphen and don't know how to file you.

Remind me one day and I'll tell the story about the white Jewish male accountant with a "black" first name and an "Italian" last name that embezzled millions from a straight black couple simply named "smith".
