Gender Discrimination


            
             Race discrimination seems to be the most obvious type of discrimination. Other discriminations such as gender, religion or physical appearances are harder to identify. There is only one time I am sure I was discriminated against on the basis of gender. A few years ago I worked as a collector at a debt collection agency in La Porte. After about a year of working there I was asked if I would like to train all the new collectors that came. I agreed to be the collections trainer. Every few months I would train a new person as the turn over rate was rather high. One day I got a new person to train. Unlike all my past trainees this one was a male. I spent a long week training this rather arrogant man that was only 20 and never had any college training. His previous job was working labor in a factory. I trained him on several rules and regulations. I week later when he was on his own I overheard him breaking Fair Debt Collection Practice Acts rules. I corrected him and had to spend another few days training him again. He didn't catch on very fast like the previous people I had trained. .
             Three months later our supervisor resigned. Being there only two years I was pretty sure I didn't have a chance of becoming a supervisor. They gave me the trainer position because I passed the FDCPA training and I was patient explaining things to other. There were about 20 people in my department and half of them had been there longer than me and the other half I had trained. .
             Needless to say applications were not taken for the new supervisor position. This position was filled immediately by the man I had trained. I was furious. I could not understand why he would be gave a job when half the people in my department were more qualified. Many people were very upset in my department. Some of them had been there for 15 or more years. Some were in their fifties and were not happy to have a "kid" as their supervisor.
