Before I struck out on my own almost 30 years ago I had supervisory roles in a couple large companies in the machining department. Whenever an opening came up for a trainee position, where what was really needed to start was a gofer who hustled, I quickly learned to go ask the Hispanic guys if they knew someone to fill an entry level position. The response was usually yes, but they don't speak English. I said that would not be a problem as we had many bi-lingual people to translate.
Both companies were in Orange County California in the area of affluent neighborhoods, even 30 years ago, home of the spoiled white kid. I tried two too many of those, it isn't my job to make an adult out of them, that was their parents job. I will admit to being a racist when it came to hiring.
Working with a lot of Hispanics makes me cringe at liberals who are always belittling the behavior of white people when it comes to bigotry, sexism, and racism. As a group Hispanic males are 5 times worse or more.
