In effort to fight what we believe to be unfair sales and labor
practices as well as stand up for Hispanic women's right to work in
a company dominated by white males - Group 1 Automotive, Inc., we're
organizing a boycott of the Group 1 Automotive, Inc. Dealerships.
As we gear up for the launch, we are trying to collect as many horror
stories as possible from consumers and employees (most have been
ex-employees). If you have had a bad experience, like many others
we've found, at any of the Group 1 Automotive dealerships listed
below. Please submit your story to our website @

Notices of unfair sales/labor practices are best forwarded to the
appropriate governmental agency (or agencies) for their action. If the
practices are found to be unlawful, and egregious enough, THEY'LL take
care of the perpetrator(s). Otherwise, attempting to drum up support
for your cause is likely only quixotic.
For what it's worth, I support the notion that *anyone* (not just a
particular ethnic group) should have the opportunity to *seek*
employment at any establishment. And, the employer should not be
forced to accept a less-qualified applicant, regardless of the
applicant's ethnic heritage.

I agree with your statement 100% but as I am sure that you are aware,
that is not the situation in this case. I think that at times,
employers use similar tactics:

Umm, yes unions...They do a marvelous job at protecting employment.
You should honestly just MOVE ON. It's rough times at MANY dealerships now
and anyone that invests themselves in that industry is kind of nutty.
Expend you energy bettering yourself instead of attacking others...You'll
end up with better results.

To be sure, there are employers who are far from respectable. As well,
there are unions that are about as useful as breasts on a boar hog --
some have proven to be corrupt. In regard to this matter, the *only*
thing I am aware of regarding this is that you appear to be zealous in
collecting horror stories against *one* employer, involving *one*
ethnic group.
Since you agree with my statement 100%, you are then aware that what
you are attempting to do has no hope of succeeding. Therefore, you're
likely either being forced to do it, have some personal axe to grind,
or have some financial interest in this "cause". History says the
latter is most likely. I'd also bet that most lurkers to this thread
would feel the same. D'ya get the feeling you've been plonked?

And just out of curiosity, what's your interest in this situation and
my posts?

Eh, mostly that you are spamming our group with your poorly worded tale of
woe.
