Life ain't a big competition, or a battle for that matter. It shouldn't be defined in terms of conflict. A meaningful corporation should hire the best person for the job, regardless of other factors. One who 'fights like hell' only when it comes to 'being on top' is not a team player and really has no place in a corporation. They may be adept at running a one-person business but if everything is based on self-serving interest they aren't a good employee. I am against quotas or anything like that. Even if all companies had fair hiring practices there would still be less women in high corporate positions, because less women in the world (compared to men) aspire to be those things. I just want a place where people treat each other with respect and where fair hiring practice is the norm not the exception. I am not actively whining about any problem today because I think the transition is a given, companies that do have fair hiring practice will get better employees overall than the old boys' networks and employees are what puts a company above the others.
