Found this interesting....have we as American's gotten "too big for our own britches?" Sometimes wonder if we all have so many expectations to "be manager. Are we paid more than we deserve, yet unwilling to put in the work we owe? We seem to have a lot of excuses for not doing this or that or we have to hire unqualified people because of anti-discrimination laws. Are we too arrogant for our own good? Who said life has to be a "Rat Race" and who says we can't have a balance of work / life any more? We are all just people trying to survive in a declining environment....maybe this is a good time to reevaluate how we view ourselves, our place in this world and communities.... Just something to thing about - this doesn't paint a pretty picture of America but is it true?
An employer is apologizing after a help-wanted advertisement was published with a sentence that indicated "arrogant Americans" would be a bad fit for the company's open position, Fox News reports.
The ad, which was placed with CareerBuilder by a staffing firm on behalf of Exelon Nuclear Partners, started off simple enough, saying Exelon was looking for a technical writer who would be working with Chinese businesses. The ad indicated the company preferred a candidate "who is respectful and understands Chinese culture."
Then, there's the line that grabbed the attention of Fox News.
"An arrogant American will not work well in this role," the ad read.
In apologizing, Exelon said a third party had created the language that was included in the ad and that copy was never approved by Exelon.
"Exelon was surprised and very disappointed to see this job posting including this offensive and inappropriate language," the company said in a statement to Fox News. "This statement was not approved by Exelon and in no way reflects the company's policies and values. We regret that this language appeared in recruiting materials that were prepared by a third party and not approved by Exelon. We apologize for this error and the offense it has caused. We are taking steps to ensure this does not happen again. Exelon is deeply committed to diversity and inclusion, and we make every effort to attract and retain talent of all backgrounds."
The ad has been removed from CareerBuilder, but Fox News has a copy.
