I'm probably too white to apply.

 

[R13...]

I'm probably too white to apply.

Drinking lots of coke will help darken you enough to qualify

 

[Apogee]

 

[RedViking]

I'm probably too white to apply.

Didn't know you were looking for a job.

 

[Hamster]

Didn't know you were looking for a job.

I'm not

 

[Drifter]

I'm probably too white to apply.

Of course you are.

 

[Milano]

It is not about race. You just need to be less certain, less arrogant. Which just happen to be the characteristics that Coca Cola have labeled as white characteristics. Nothing racist there /s

Some of your messages have implied you are older and it's very rare for companies to hire people 60+. If they do feel they need you, you won't be affected by BEE anyway since they will hire you on a freelance basis or short-term contract.

Yeah, Hamster if you can be less certain then you could cut the mustard. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...ft-drink-giant-puts-pause-diversity-plan.html

That's just mean. I don't go around making fun of your brain damage

 

[JuliusSeizure]

When did I make fun of you?

That's just how companies in SA work when it comes to employing people above retirement age unless you have seen otherwise.

 

[Hamster]

When did I make fun of you?

Apologies then, I misread. I shall continue to not make fun of your brain damage

Like other service centres, Coca-Cola said this team’s efforts will focus on using digital insights, business intelligence, analytics, and smart digital marketing to enhance the customer and consumer experience.

How on earth could tech geeks enhance the experience of me opening a can of coke and drinking the content.

Loads of nonsense tbh.

I walk into a checkers - I see price of 2L sugar free Pepsi is R12.99. Very cheap. I decide to grab several, pay and leave.

No tech geek could ever change my mind or experience.

Or, is there something obvious I'm missing.

The first half of the sentence you quoted?

You walking into Checkers and buying a Coke makes you a customer of Checkers. Checkers in turn is a customer of Coca Cola.

Best they don't appoint me. I'm woefully unqualified and probably unsuitably too pale.

 

[rvZA]

Just be less white when applying everyone...
