Turn Jose to Joe and you will get a job.

I remember a thread on reddit after 9/11 this guy named mohummed Islam tried to get a job and no one would take his ass and it was some nerdy looking white guy

You have an American name? So your name is Dances With Wolves or Sitting Bull?

Wangchangboy, you wish you were white. David isn't an Asian name. Do you see any whites name themselves Ching-Wan or Ikisaki? Why are you naming yourself a white/Jewish name? You're a wannabe, dude.

Giving yourself a white name isn't Americanizing. You're not American, you're Asian and you will be for the rest of your life. Yall are supposed to be smart, yet you think white is analogous to American fukkiin chinamen, I swear, you guys are a joke. Small dikks, look like alien insects, smell like fish, speak a silly language. Wangchongchangwongchang

Lol don't be mad cuz you won't get call backs devante.

I'm Asian American. Why would I take on an ethnic name when I've never left America?

Your the dumb one thinking that an American name is analogous to White is just revealing your racist stereotypes.


But......I hope you get called back devante

 

[*L*E*G*A*C*Y*]

not really news y'know.
most of the board can attest to this

This.

I can't really change my extremely Nigerian name to something Anglicized/Americanized though...Temisan to Timothy? Doesn't even make sense.

And believe me thee I sent out 100s of resumes and applied to 100s of jobs online...kind of hard to not go that route when you don't know people that can put a breh on.

 

[*L*E*G*A*C*Y*]

blame your parents for naming you some bullshyt.

No. This is terrible breh.

My name means "my father's wealth".

Why would I change that to be the 1,202,243rd Josh, Michael, or Dave?

I have pride in myself and my heritage and I wouldn't change anything about me to appease shallow ethnocentric and blatantly racist pieces of shyt.

 

[*L*E*G*A*C*Y*]

Living and hearing stories like this disgust me, ALMOST beyond rational control of human impulse, sometimes.

Then when some cacs hit you with that "you're just pulling the race card" shyt...when there's TONS of physical, statistical, implied, and anecdotal evidence to support MANY claims of racism, and in the least, justification for a general displeasure/cynicism in how the world works for minorities (namely African-Americans), it's just a moment, because you know ON THE LOW, these mfers acknowledge, take advantage of, and are for the most part, AWARE that these issues exist. But when you bring it up, it becomes a conversation about homosxual rights, political correctness, letting go of the past, "my best friend is black, he got hired", black President, etc etc etc. Lol. I'm glad I had my "prison phase" already. With my inner issues, if I didn't have a decent amount of rationality, empathy, compassion and knowledge, I'd be a real dangerous, reactionary motherfukker. Thank God for the Coli.

The bolded and italicized for real for real breh...

BTW, I am the only person in the United States of America with my name (I already looked it up)...I couldn't be happier. I wear it as a badge of pride and no racist society would ever make me hate that.

Even though I've gone months and even years of being unemployed cause no one would hire me because of it....

This society rewards conformity and punishes true individuality....

Ahead of the c00ning game, that's nothing to be proud of. They don't realize how ridiculous it sounds when they change their name to John Chang, or Martin Yakamoto. Total sellout kissass Asiac00ns. They're laughable. How the hell you gonna choose a white name when your eyes are slanted af, and you look nothing like a white person? Asiac00ns need to , ain't no one gonna acknowledge them as anything other than Asian. The whiter the name, the more ridiculous they are. "Kyle Cho" Agnes Siphathong Chad Hakimori

I never address Asians by their white name, that's not their names. I ask them what their original name is and that's what I'll go by every time. Nothing is sadder than wanting to be white

Adapt and conquer. It's not about "wanting" to be white. If you want to live and exist in a white dominated society, prepare to play by their rules.

See you his what happens when u don't have an economy. Jews don't have to change their names because they own everything

 

[HacksawJimThuggin]

got an ethnic ass name so I've dealt with this throughout my life.

Eventually decided to say fukk it and start my own businesses and employed minorities

 

[Quarterback]

Lol don't be mad cuz you won't get call backs devante.

lol, you're a retard. I've been steadily employed since college in the finance industry making good money. I'm doing well, Wangchong. Go make me some chop suey, slope.

I'm Asian American. Why would I take on an ethnic name when I've never left America?

Because Asian is your ethnicity. What a stupid fukkin question. You guys aren't smart at all, the stereotype is bullshyt. Some of you may be booksmart, but none of you have common sense. "David" is not a name of your ethnic make-up. You're a wannabe, you have no pride. .

Your the dumb one thinking that an American name is analogous to White is just revealing your racist stereotypes.


But......I hope you get called back devante

The only American names would be native ones, you dumbshyt. Everything else is from other ethnic groups, European, Asian, Hispanic, etc. This is elementary school level knowledge, yet I have to teach this to you. Typical Asian, you may be smart in math, but you have no worldly knowledge.

You're an Asiac00n that wishes he were white. You forsake your culture to try to fit in with whities, but instead you ended up looking more a fool. Again, no white guy ever gives himself an Asian name. Ever. But you guys kiss white ass like there's no tomorrow.

And you're making silly assumptions because you're a dumbass. I'm positive I make more bank than you. Now go widen your eyes and learn to drive correctly, you people are a danger on the road.

 

[Steve Piffler]

i have the whitest name ever....Steven Milner. don't get no whiter than that....

 

[Robbie3000]

His name is José Zamora, and he had a routine.

During his months-long job search, he says he logged onto his computer every morning and combed the internet for listings, applying to everything he felt qualified for. In the Buzzfeed video above, he estimates that he sent out between 50 to 100 resumes a day -- which is, in a word, impressive.

But Zamora said he wasn't getting any responses, so on a hunch, he decided to drop the "s" in his name. José Zamora became Joe Zamora, and a week later, he says his inbox was full.

As he explains in the video, "Joe" hadn't changed anything on his resume but that one letter. But what Zamora had done, effectively, was whitewash it.

Although digital job applications would seem to be the ultimate exercise in colorblind hiring, numerous studies and applicants have found the opposite. Employers consciously or subconsciously discriminate against names that sound black or Latino, as reported by the New York Times. One much-cited study found that applicants with white-sounding names received 50 percent more callbacks than applicants with black-sounding names, a significant disparity.

"I had to drop a letter to get a title," Zamora said, later adding, "Sometimes I don't even think people know or are conscious or aware that they're judging -- even if it's by name -- but I think we all do it all the time."


Asians been ahead of the game

An Asian guy I worked with was named Danny John LOL

 

[CoolazzFemale]

Guess my white name got me my job.

 

[Robbie3000]

See you his what happens when u don't have an economy. Jews don't have to change their names because they own everything

Jews are notorious for changing their names especially in Hollywood. You think Jason Alexander is George Costanza's real name? You Think Jon Stewart is his real name?

Adapt and conquer. It's not about "wanting" to be white. If you want to live and exist in a white dominated society, prepare to play by their rules.

Another ign'ant nikka, this one a Dominican. Cassius Clay really lived by the white man's rules, good thing he remained Cassius, that's why he's rich

We do not have to conform to these fakkit cacs, we don't have to play by the white man's rules. You can live and exist successfully while still being true to who you are. Don't tell me you Anglicized your Dominican name. Omar isn't Anglo, but if you go by a different name IRL, then you are sad. Also sad if you deny your Dominicanness IRL.

c00ning is a cancer, for all minorities. Do not give these white fukkers any more power than they already have. You're a fakkit if you do. In England, Muhammed is the #1 baby name. The Muslims have balls, they're not gonna c00n it up. And it's not gonna hurt them in the pocketbook, they give zero fukks. We shouldn't either.

Respect to my boy @LEGACY for keepin it real. No respect to that chinaboy who wants to call himself "david" What a sad sap.
