A pink-haired DEI trainer has slammed Oregon's forestry department for hiring on the basic of merit rather than identity.

Megan Donecker filed a complaint about her former boss Mike Shaw and moaned about him telling her that he sought the 'candidates most qualified for the job.'

DEI advocates like Donecker say hiring should be done through an 'intersectional lens' whereby applications from marginalized people are given greater weight.

Donecker, who worked as the department's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion chief claimed six queer staffers didn't 'feel safe or comfortable' at work because they could not have 'conversation around pronouns.'

Donecker, who describes herself as an avid Dungeons and Dragons player who lives with her wife, Jai, an adopted nine-year-old and two cats, quit her job at the department in March after falling out with bosses.

'It is bad for women at forestry,' Donecker said in an interview. 'It is even worse if you are queer.'

Further proof that if you're in charge of hiring that you throw all resumes that list their preferred pronouns into the trash.

People spend a fortune to beat cancer, so why do some companies invite and pay cancer into their companies?

I can't believe anyone hired that thing. And I couldn't care less if she's gay or whatever but this is just pathetic.

It's the left were allowed to do all this. We would have pilots and doctors and other professions not qualified. This is where we're headed and it's crap.

"whereby applications from marginalized people are given greater weight."

why does every insane loser think they should get special rules just because they are a loser. they should just take up betting. i mean that is in essence what they are saying. they want a point spread to even the playing field because they can't compete.

That hippo smells right through my laptop screen

By not pushing back on this stupid **** when it first reared its ugly head. If you keep giving them inches soon, they will have a mile. You should never compromise with crazy or normalize it.

We're normalizing insanity. It should be in a mental institution

The loudest DEI proponents in any company are usually friendless bullies.

Fire them and it becomes immediately apparent that this is the case.

On the other side of the coin... is anyone else surprised that the Oregon Forestry department actually said they would hire based on merit? That genuinely took me off guard that they still did such a thing there.

As the owner of a company...this person is the personification of a chronic headache.

She keeps a trophy from her latest meal around her neck in case she needs a snack.

State governments are full of people like this. Government bureaucracies are make work programs.

This. Told this story before. It was 04 or 05 and let one of employees hire an assistant she needed. The gal she picked interviewed well and appeared perfectly normal. By day five of her job she had transformed from normal to high Wiccan priestess. I simply said "NOPE". I called the local HR gal for that office and told her I was going to her go and she agreed on the spot.

By contrast, about 12-13 years later I inherited a guy in our Irvine, CA office that was an absolute psycho, huge PITA, and just overall weird and creepy. It was obvious previous managers just shuffled him around instead of dealing with it. And as noted in another post, he expected, demanded, special treatments and accommodation. I tried for well over a year to fire him and HR fought me every step. This dewsh even took two short term disabilities to hide, knowing I was trying to can him. He was still with the company when I left.

Eventually they got rid of him in a layoff which, outside of severe violation of policy, seems to be the only way to get rid of freakshows.

How did giving a black kid a chance morph into having to hire that fat Ursula look alike?

Looks like a character in live action Flintstones movie written and directed by Rob Zombie.

Want to screw up your team? This is the way. Make your competent productive staff work with one of these.

DEI should not be a thing, let alone paying people to run those departments.

You ever wonder why some things just keep getting more expensive? It's useless positions like these created by morons and stupid government regulations.
