If Dollar General only knew
I have submitted a few applications for employment, and never once received a call. I have many years in retail. My experience includes management, sales, and asset protection. I'm the kind of employee you would love to have. I have the knowledge, people skills, personality, and everything it takes to manage, work as an associate, and everything it takes to have an successful store. As a manager, I can stop the bleeding of associates or job turnover, the loss of revenue from poor customer service, and stores from being improperly stocked. I could make any one of your Muskegon/Whitehall Michigan stores more profitable. But for some reason my application is always overlooked. If they only knew what a excellent employee they would have in me.🤔🤔🤔
Sincerely,
Devin

Racism
Racism - Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different #Race based on the belief that ones own race is superior.
#Racism has no place in #America! This is supposed to be the land of the free, home of the brave. No man/woman, Black, White, Hispanic, Chinese, or Canadian should have to face discrimination in a “Free Country” full of immigrants! Yet every day, human beings of color, have to face racism in some form, shape, or fashion. Either on the job, at the store, in traffic, or when we sit down, turn on the news & listen to how much the most powerful man in the world, America’s #President, dislikes me, & everyone that looks like me. Telling us all, if we don’t like how white men/women in the #Republican Party are running the country, then we need to go back where we came from. Go back to #Africa!!!
Living in the #UnitedStates as a “Black Man”, on land our ancestors were brought to, forced into slavery, bled on, raped on, families were separated on... We made it through being spit on, lynchings, dog attacks, mob attack’s, cross burnings, segregation, riots, we made it through hell, & back through hell again, to make it where we are now... Continued lynchings, our folks continue to be murdered in the streets by #PoliceOfficers with little to no consequences! The persistence of America’s racism is a huge problem. We are far away from Dr King’s vision of a land where each person would be judged by the content of their character, rather than the color of their skin.
Still in 2019, the hate is so thick you can cut it with a knife! With a Racist President encouraging hate, white supremacist groups on the rise, #Republican leaders embracing this racist president, protecting this racist president who has broken #Campaign finance laws, obstructed justice, & have been accused of #SexualAssault over 20 times! Republicans in both the House & Senate, with the exception of 4 Republicans, continue to Aid & abet this racist, rouge, authoritarian wanna be president #DonaldTrump as he continue to trample all over the #Constitution, encourage racism, & obstruct #Justice. America is still generations away from #Equality for all women & men, generations away from not being judged by the color of our skin. Sad part is that racism is taught.
All minorities should ask themselves why do white republican leaders, & white republicans running for #PublicOffice, want to suppress the #Minority (Your) #Vote? Why do they spend so much time & money on advertising false information? The answer is simple... If minorities vote, they know minorities won’t cast a vote for them because their policies are for the rich, & take away from the poor communities. They know this, so they feed false information to poor communities, turning them against those folks that are for them & helping them. It’s all fueled by Racism. Until all Black men/women, & all minorities come together & stand up to racism, it’ll NEVER END!!!

Respect
Respect can sometimes ce interpreted as a specific feeling of regard for the actual qualities of the one respected. I find myself sometimes asking myself, "why is there so little respect these days"? Seems like a crazy question to ask, but it's a real question to ask. As a man, and provider for my family, I find myself falling victim to a "minimum" of respect in my own home on a daily basis. The more angering part about it is... I seem to ce the only one who notices it, obviously if someone else did, it would end, right? Well, I'm not going to hold my breath on that one! Enough to drive a grown man crazy! But, not only in my home, it's going on in millions of homes across our country! Our men are cecoming less, and less respected. The sad part about it, it's the children doing the disrespecting, and the parents let it go on! It was a time when a child had to stay in a child's place, and ce obedient to whatever any adult said. Those days are long gone!!!
That's just the start of how respect in our lives has fallen into a downward spiral! All you have to do is turn your t.v. on, and disrespect will pour out like water onto your living room floor. Our President, President Obama, is one of the most disrespected men in our country. For no other reason then, some people feel he should not ce our President cecause of the color of his skin! Hence the saying.... "my skin is my sin"! The Republican Party mainly - always speak of him as foreign, or not understanding us Americans! Referring to him as "Muslim", planting seeds into into the mind of Americans that he is not of us, and he's not qualified to ce our President cecause he's not American! Republicans take his words and twist them in such disgraceful ways, it would make an easily persuaded person question President Obama Citizenship! When have you ever witnessed an American President so rudely interrupted while he was giving a speech, or publicly called names? I never heard of President Bush (a Republican President) being so disrespected inside of our country, and he lied us into a war that has killed thousands of our children!
Take Willard Mitt Romney, every day he stands cefore the American people and lie, not by accident, but ceing fully aware of what he is doing! This is another drastic form of disrespect! One day he says one thing, and then the next he says he never said it at all, disrespecting the entire country! Or New Jerseys Governor Chris Christie calling hard working American Citizens idiots! How disrespectful! But this is what we have cecome, and it looks like it will only get worse! When will it end, when will respect ce retained, and practiced by all, young and old! I'm waiting on that day!!!
RESPECT!!!
