O/T Leaked information on how Sprint treats there customers by region and ethnicity

Straight from there corporate internal training :naughty:

Bertucci · Oct 25, 2012

That makes sense though. Would you speak fast, complex English in a place that most people speak limited English?

The Jackal · Oct 25, 2012

No you are right but it was later on removed due to being racially biased and profiling customers based on their region, demographic, and race...

I don't get it, what's wrong with that?
I have employed people from Mexico and Venezuela, when I spoke to them I really slowed my pace and tried to enunciate my words so that they can understand me better.

Ok then nvm. I understand your reasons I just as felt if you are currently a Sprint consumer and as a current customer everyone should be well informed :delete::delete::delete::delete::delete::delete::delete:

God thats so dumb. According to those same people we need to make things easy for minorities but at the same time pointing out the fact that a group is likely to need accommodations its 'racial profiling' or some other B.S. politically correct term.

Sorry I'm trying to understand what you mean by
"'racial profiling' or some other B.S. politically correct term"

People always say something is racist if you mention the fact that if a large portion of the population, for example, can't speak English. Like in parts of Southern California where there are a lot of Mexican immigrants who don't speak English very well. If someone from Sprint were to call an area entirely inhabited by these people without knowing about this fact the service would be hindered. Everybody is just so sensitive about race.

I like what Morgan Freeman said when asked how we get rid of racism: "Stop talking about it."

Asinine. That doesn't that help anything. As for the Sprint directives in the OP, I don't see anything wrong with it and think it's common sense. In fact, it's not racial at all. It's geographical and it's not saying to treat ayone differently.
