I am the "TOKEN" white guy.....

I bet you are dying to know what this post is about....

I feel the need to do a little explaining first... So we all live in a
world with racism and with that a need for Diversity Inclusion.
Which, of course, means employers must focus on hiring a diverse work
force. Now, in a perfect world it wouldn't matter what your race,
creed or color is...you would be hired on your ability and the rest
wouldn't matter (great concept...right?). Unfortunately and obviously,
this isn't a perfect world and racism does still exist. Which is why
we have- and need - Diversity Inclusion. Which is what my friend,
Meriel, does for work. Which might be how we got on this topic to
begin with....

So, we (and by we, I mean Antz, Meriel, Rebecca and myself) were
having our weekly "noodles" night (at a vietnamese resturant called I
Love Pho next to my apartment...btw, I am really bummed about missing
that the next two weeks) and discussed our ethnic descents. Now
Meriel is of Asian descent. Rebecca is half white and half Hispanic
descent. Anthony is of Asian descent...actually after listening to
his family tree he is of "everything" descent! To include a full
fledge Italian. Me, however...well I am as much of a white boy as a
white boy can be a white boy (I don't care who you are...that was
funny).

So, at the conclusion of our conversation last night...Rebecca
declared me the "token" white guy of our little friend group. In true
Diversity fashion.

So, now, in line with the many coloful adjectives I answer to...I will
also answer to "token white guy"......
