Discriminatory job posting (per Facebook)
Posted by kkw_archer on December 27, 2019 at 10:58 pmWell it appears as though I have been discriminating in my hiring process, at least according to Facebook. I miss the days of when people were not always looking for something to act like they were offended by. If you are easily offended stop here, if not:. The discriminatory job posting is shown below.

So glad I don’t do facebook!!
It must be the “no criminal record” requirement. That would eliminate a third of the people on this board. 😳 😳 😳 😳
Seriously, some people truly enjoy being disagreeable. Ignore them and live your life.
What did they say was discriminating? I’m going to guess ‘rodman’
I’m going to go out on a limb and say it is the company name that set them off. Say it out loud.
It’s not “rodman”, it’s the company name. I assume either this was flagged by an algorithm with no human input, or the person who reviewed this wasn’t a native English speaker. Did you ask for a review?
And off topic, but what kind of work requires an assistant for a rodman 😐 ?
Survey field assistant-rodman
I’m thinking the fourth word is a clarification of the first three.
As to the company name. A very fine engineer that I knew many years ago had that same last name. His first name was Dick, not Richard, etc. Putting those two names together might give some pause.
@holy-cow turns out it was rodMAN
Winner winner chicken dinner! SMH.
Nope, we had posted several jobs in the past; SIT, EIT, PE, general labor. I did ask for a review and requested to be informed of which part violated the terms and made the post discrimatory however the only reply I received was “We have reviewed your post and found that it violates our terms and will not be posted”. I deleted it and reposted it changing rodman to survey crew member and it went right through.
We are looking for a field crew assistant (rodman). It won’t be full time rodman, sometimes strictly brush cutting, sometimes just being a mule carrying & pounding hubs & stakes after the rodman has identified the location.

Nope, John had it right. Turns out rodMAN is discriminatory, guess you are just as chauvinistic as me 😉
Don’t take my dreams away, I want to retire and get an assistant rodman job.
job duties:
-bring the rodman water
-help the rodman put the point into the dimple or center on top of the bar
-tell the rodman what a great rodman she is
UPDATE: Just in case you haven’t seen from above, the job title of rodMAN was the discriminatory part of the job posting. You also can not post a job for a:
waiter wanted, it must be waiter/waitress wanted
maid wanted, it must be cleaning professional wanted (what if I don’t want a professional, just someone to pick up my junk?)
salesman wanted, it must be salesPERSON wanted
and on and on….
The California Department of Industrial Relations refers to my “helper” as Rodman/Chainman and if you don’t type that into the Certified Payroll Report it won’t accept it.
Gotta get a rodperson to pop personhole covers so the I-person can get a shot.
In all seriousness, I thought it was the 50 lb requirement.
Maintenance Hole so we can keep the MH abbreviation

-tell the rodman what a great rodman she is
……while talking directly to her breasts. 😯
Are you telling me RODgirl sounds better? HA!

That would be analogous to advertising for a rodboy. Which I doubt would be well received.
I know a retired Appellate Court Justice named Rod.
