Вот как надо писать обьявления о работе - за пару часов 70 с лишним комментов. Вот это мастер, я в восхищении. А то я как напишу - с трудом полдюжины кандидатов откликаются.
First off, there is nothing immoral in defending my own interests, be it today or tomorrow.
There is, if you do it by stealing someone other's property or restricting their freedoms. E.g., it would be nice if there was a law requiring everybody to pay me $1 each day, but I see no moral justification for such a law.
My point is that nobody should bullshit people with the requirements unrelated to the set of tasks which the employee is supposed to perform.
That depends of what do you mean by "should". If you say "it is stupid to do so" - I agree. If you say "there should be a law against it" - I disagree. Because if I see something as stupid, somebody else can see it as beneficial, and I have no right to enforce my optinion on him. If he's right and I'm wrong - the profit is his, if he's wrong and I'm right - the loss is his, on both cases - it's his business, not mine. Everybody can be as stupid as he likes, for his own money.
And yes, this is extremely popular in Israel to come up with the list of requirements that are hardly can be called fair
I never saw any requirements that were not "fair", whatever you mean by "fair" there. The whole concept of something being "fair" or not "fair" in a job requirements is somewhat alien to me - it's like saying I'm unfair to the store which I don't visit because I don't like the smell there or the face of the cashier. I have whole right to visit any store I want and he has whole right to hire anybody he wants, for his money. If he doesn't hire me - the loss is all his, I'll find better place to work. Anyway if he hires someone, he expect to make more profit then he pays, so if he doesn't hire me - he loses all the profit he could make, so why I should be bothered with his loss?
this does bites EVERYONE in the ass at some point.
I don't see any biting happening. If somebody puts forward job requirements that no person would match - he just won't hire anybody, so the only man who gets bitten in the ass is himself. If somebody matches - then I see no problem at all.
Well, I guess in this case you will not have any hard feelings about "No Jewish applicants, please" kind of posting somewhere in Europe or America. After all "the loss is theirs", right?
I would have hard feelings, but I won't have the state to act for me. Instead, I'd take care that as much people as possible would know about it and act accordingly - e.g. severing business ties with the poster or boycotting his products. Of course, if the position is not about bacon taste control, where observant Jews would have some difficulties on the job :)
