I predict that the investigation is going to determine that this sign work was done by a minority sub-contractor who was given the job because the federal government requires an ever increasing percentage of work must be given to minority contractors; no matter if they have a proven record of quality work. |

My guess is that you are correct. Birmingham Mayor William Bell is of-color and prefers that most/all government largess flow to those of the same background. Maybe Dufas can fill us in. He lives near or in Birmingham. How about it Dufas? Can you report from the scene? |

He lives near or in Birmingham. How about it Dufas? Can you report from the scene? I was in a lot of pain when I read the original post and had to lie down so I just woke up a little while ago when Mr.Phone and Mr.Bladder conspired to wake me up. I may have a little insight into the nonsense that goes on when The City of Birmingham awards contracts for work on municipal projects. Some years back there was a project to widen and repair 20th Street which is a main traffic artery through downtown and into The South Side where the medical centers are located. There were brand new pickup trucks all over the area bearing the name of a heretofore unknown construction company that had the name of a very prominent Negro businessman who had never been in the construction business. Needless to say, the work was botched and the street was turned into a roller coaster ride that has needed numerous repairs. In the coming days I'm sure the story of what happened and who's at fault and who will probably get a free ride if it is a so called minority contractor. From what I've read, Brasfield & Gorrie-Bloc Global Services Group was the main contractor since there is no minority owned construction company big enough to handle such a large and complex project for the city. I'm quite sure the construction company was required to meet Affirmative Action mandates for the workers hired, the subcontractors and personnel supervising the work. More news to come. o_O http://blog.al.com/spotnews/2013/03/..._river_default http://tinyurl.com/dxqrwkh http://blog.al.com/spotnews/2013/03/...iver_d efault http://tinyurl.com/cto7k65 TDD |

Simple stuff. I bid it high, and got the bid. The first two days out there, we were hit with an inspector or some big wheel every half hour or so. After two days, they saw we knew what we were doing, and left us alone. Came to find out that the contract had been let to a minority owned business because there is a specified amount of small minority owned business set-asides at Hoover Dam. One of the inspectors told me the last company did not install a thing, nor drill one hole. They were terminated, but paid in full. Steve |

Most of the real Africans I've met are wonderful folks and lack the bellicose attitude that's a cultural trait of most Negro Americans. There are a lot of people from Kenya working for convenience store/ gas stations in the area and they're always polite and respectful to all the customers. I complemented one of the young women from Kenya on how all the gals from Kenya I've met were so nice to people. The young woman explained that it's the way they were raised and taught to behave. I know a hard working young man from Nigeria who is ashamed of the reputation of his homeland because of all the scammers who operate from there. When I asked him why he came to America, he said it was for the opportunities that exist in the USA because there was nothing for him in Africa because the bosses got all the money. I asked him if Nigerians mouthed off at police the way American Blacks do and he said an Urban Black from America would last about 5 minutes in Nigeria because the first time he opened his mouth at a cop, he would be shot or beaten to death and his body tossed in a ditch. African Negroes don't like Negro Americans and wish they would stop calling themselves African. o_O TDD |
