A satirical website recently came into existence, quite amusing reading;
http://rentaminority.com/

They have, however, been receiving legitimate enquiries amongst the play-alongs. To be expected I guess. My personal favourite so far:
Smiling Muslim Woman
Certified not to support ISIS (or your money back).

Heh, "Cecil Roads", very good. Anyone taken in by this must be blind, or very desperate.

I just wanna make it clear that regardless what people might or might not say, none of those serious enquiries were from me. Especiallu not one asking for that Muslim woman. Regardless of what might be found in the inboxes of the people running the site, I totally didn't write an email saying "she'd be the perfect companion for me this Friday."

Aww, so that means that there's no easy option to be diverse? That would have saved a lot of money. Anyway, thanks it's funny.

Well there's always those who take the onion at face value, so -\_(ツ)_/-.

It's alright, no one is judging you. Yet. That's why i signed myself up as a minority for rent! Easy cash me-thinks. All while making the world a superficially better place!

I'm more amused by Rudy Kipling, myself. "Trying to find a minority for corporate events is the white man's burden. This revolutionary service has relieved my burden quite considerably."

I mean if there was anything that made the site apparent as parody, it's that testimonial.

This is hilarious. Not the least of which because I have worked at companies before who would have loved to have access to real service like this.

I heard(and this is complete heresy btw, it appeared on CNN but I have no idea if its true or not) that in China companies will hire a white guy actor to sort of hang around and make it look like they have prestige and international connections.

Again it was on CNN and I haven't bothered to check the legitimacy of it yet so take it with the same amount of salt as you do with other things that supposedly happened in China.

I want to point out they made the pun "minority report" on the top bar of their website so I consider the entire joke website entirely justified for that pun alone.

I think this will be very popular where I live. My state is so white, people cannot hide behind the "I have black friends" excuse.

Now they can.

Now they can.
I have been in on meetings where the subject at hand is literally "We are hosting a conference - how do we deal with the fact that our company has zero black people?" The answer was usually to play up the Chinese dude and the two Indian guys they had. Out of more than a hundred people. There were talks though of hiring a black spokesperson to be the face of the event.

You know, I was going to say "actually it wasn't that bad" but now that I think of it I literally cannot think of any other people who worked there that were not white. And all three of those guys were hired by the same manager. Maybe he was the only non racist manager at the company.

Three non-whites? Damn that affirmative action!

...seriously, though, I live in one of the least diverse states in the US (I believe New Hamster and the Maine in Rain falls plainly on the Shane are within margin of error) and I don't think I've ever worked in a business with that little diversity.

It was all the result of nepotism. Two brothers started the company and for many, many years every hire was a family member or close friend (mostly family) of someone already in the company.

I can't go on. Whoever thought that up needs a blowjob.

So that also isn't your credit card info?

In China this is actually a real thing - if you're white they pay you to just dress up (be well groomed too) in business clothes to attend a business meetings with them so the company looks like it has international reach.

On top of that, they don't like it if you know the language, English only is better.

I'd honestly go for it if it wasn't for the fact it's China and I don't want to die from poison in the air, poison in the water, poison in the food, sub par built building falling on me, or getting disappeared due to saying something that isn't insane in regards to CCP claims.

Isn't this like a real thing people do at Disney world? Like you can hop on Craigslist and there are like handicapped people that you can pay to go with you to Disney so you don't have to wait in line?

Seriously though. I need a black person to jump in at karaoke and sing the N-word for me. I'm gonna need that for "X gonna give it to ya," "Rock 'n' Roll ******" and "Born to run." (Yes, I know "Born to Run" doesn't use that word, but I want my full money's value.)
