LOS ANGELES -- A former employee is alleging workers were routinely subjected to racial discrimination at a California car dealership partially owned by former Denver Broncos star John Elway.
In a lawsuit filed Monday, a former sales manager at John Elway's Manhattan Beach Toyota alleges he and other minority employees were denied promotions and opportunities based on their race.
Timothy Sandquist says he didn't get a promotion he deserved despite eight years of successful employment because he is black. He was instead made to work the job without earning the title or a raise.
Sandquist alleges the dealership's general manager used ethnic slurs against black, Latino and Middle Eastern employees.
A lawyer for the dealership, James McDonald, says the lawsuit appears to have numerous inaccuracies and the allegations don't appear to have merit

The only thing that matters is if they were selling cars or not.
If i was black and was called n i g &** every day but was making ridiculos money cause of the cars I was selling - who cares.

:D Give me raise and a title, or I'll sue! Only in America...

Article mentions nothing about 'selling' cars at a profit. It discusses (denied) advancements/opportunities based on race. You really need to read the articles you cite before you make your (racist) point.
-
I'm sure most of these idiots making these claims are pofs ghetto thug criminals w a record who did not sell shit who were pissed off when after they took a draw for a few months the dealership pressurted them to produce some sales.
-
Yes, I'm sure Elway personally had something to do with this. This how retarded the writers of the Huffington post are.

Most dealerships are based on sales and profit, nothing else.
Lets see the sales of these fools. i bet anything they showed up at 2 in the afternoon, complained, were drunk, high, and caused chaos. When they were about to get fired they threatened a lawsuit.

So, a supposedly reputable car dealer hires criminals w/o doing record checks? Especially one that has been working there for 8 yrs? Come on, and you are an attorney? And had to pass the NY bar?

So true. I was gonna go with a thinning hair approach, but now I'm at a loss.

All this is about is a few ghetto thug layabouts trying to get ahead of any earnings Elways gets from the playoff and superbowl.
Reperations for the failures who can't sell cars.

Funny story, Squad. Let me tell you a story. There once was a group called the UAW. Now, they had a lot of Whites working for them, so you can only imagine the amount the of WRI's - work related injuires - that they incurred....

You're just as racist as this poor fucker. You had serious issues growing up as a mutt obviously and the number guy lives in the bronx with the worst of every minority.
You're fucked no matter what but at least this 333381 guy can move to Alabama or something and fit in.

First off, blaming Elway for this is absurd. Most of the hiring and promotions go through the GM of the dealership. The owner usually does not get involved unless it's to hire or promote someone to the GM position. Now if you have multiple owners and one of them happens to be s omeone like John Elway, I can guarntee you that he stops by there once a year at most.
Second of all, car dealers are a small business (unless you are talking about a big auto group chain), and for the most part they operate like a small business. Generally the entire HR department is tagged on as a responsibility to one person who already has another main job at the dealer.
They hire, promote, fire, not based on affirmative action bullshit but on who can get the job done (or who is friends with the right people).
Third. In the past four years car dealers have been hurting just like anyone else, laying people off and shifting responsibilities on the ones that were left. So it comes as absolutely no surprise that someone was asked to accept responsibilities of another position without a pay raise or title ( seriously who gives a fuck about a title if there is no additional money in it).
This whole story is a fucking joke and I guarantee you there is at least one person in every single dealership who can say they have been fucked over in one way or another, but wouldn't have the nerve to bring race into it.

exactly, sales is based on PERFORMANCE not color, education, backround or any of that bullshit, if you can sell ice to an eskimo I don't give a shit if your black, white, yellow, green, purple, have one leg, three eyes, etc., give me a guy who barely graduated high school but can bullshit anyone over an MBA who gets nervous talking to the gas station attendant anytime.
