The last company I worked for had extremely positive reinforcements of black people and when we had a cross industry event this was the same thing (IT management consultancy) I know the same is true in Law where there are lots and lots of brothers and sisters representing.
Such a condemnation happens when people say what is on their mind and are not afraid to. If you do it right people respect you, but if you cross a line you get people's backs up because you are breaking a code of conduct which says don't force your views on me and I won't force my views on you. Sorry to say but in this case it seems it is justified.
I guess we have experienced different things. If you have had positive experiences then I am glad...genuinely, and I'm happy to hear things are changing. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree, because I still see it the same way I did.

Total comedy this week. Watching this joker bouncing up and down on that trampoline was just epic.
Really he should of went for his performance but the girl that went shouldnt have even lasted so long anyway. She was just a wet fish.

I really expected him to go after the fiasco he led to defeat. I mean, picking a wheelchair to sell on a 'general' shopping channel for goodness sake. What a dodo!
Mind you I was in stitches when watching him assemble the legs on the trampoline (sorry bouncer)...lol... Laughing even now as I type this. I reckon that's why Alan kept him, because he provided the best entertainment on the show so far.
But seriously, there is no one in that sorry group that I would employ if I were Alan. I can't believe how bad everyone has been.
Respect

| Backatya, to be fair to them that was a particulary difficult task. TV presenting would be a tough discipline for even the most seasoned account execs. Last edited on Sunday June 3rd, 2007 19:38 by Le Moor

I don't disagree at all, this task was particularly difficult. Presenting in front of a vast TV audience is not something I would relish doing myself.
However, I wasn't so much commenting on their presenting skills but more about their 'general' poor standard of performance throughout all the tasks so far.
I am not impressed with any of them and none would have a hope of gettting a place in my multi-million empire. Sorry but I have worked too hard building it up to let sub standard labour loose in it. 
Respect

Oh my god what a fantastic bit of television. Absolutely fugging brilliant.
Alan took that snub personally you could see. It meant his judgement was wrong and his ego definatley would have been dented. Which goes to show that even the highly successful are human.
I love that interview round, because its the only round where candidates are left to their own individual devices. There are no longer any hiding places.

No Soofresh,
I thought that all the hype against her was unjustified.
The BBC the paragon of P.C really do'ent like upper middle class strong women.
Let's face it. If she was a man they would not be as harsh and I thought the comments about having to move her family, and will family get in the way were a little sexist.
The mens family commitments did not feature as an obstacle (Tray).
The fact Katie is a single mum, who is earning okay and is determined, and ambitious seemed to put mainly other women off her. But that other woman is the real snake in the grass. It would be very Modern British to have her win it as she is the epitome of modern britain, two faced, back stabber. And that others could not see it simply makes this lenghty recruiting process a farce.

Dada & Soofresh: first i must say that lasty nights Apprentice was absolutely classic TV......especially the 'You're fired show' wow!!! talk about fireworks.....
However getting back to the serious business of Katie....This is not about being all PC an sh*t...this woman is a joker..She obviously wasn't serious about the job, and i suspect that she would not have stuck around for long had she won the competition....
However for me the reason i don't like Katie is that not only can she definately not be trusted, her behaviour is amoral and absolutely callous.....I dread to think what her views on Black people would be on an unguarded moment.... Here for me is the big difference comparing her to Ruth Badger [last years finalist].. Ruth was aggressive, ruthless and determined and in truth I admired those characteristics in any woman...but in contrast to Katie, katies behaviour went beyond ruthlessness and into the realms of sociopathetic behaviour...
I mean taking someone's husband once, i can buy twice maybe but three times come on now.....Alarms bells must be ringing big time!!!
Seriously I don't think you could trust that woman further than you could throw her, and if i was a white man and married to her I'd be scared to divorce her..she is the type to take your shirt off your back, just for the hell of it...
However contradicting all of the above...i predict TV appreances on big Brother, next years Apprentice and some new TV game or talk show where she plays herself...

I hear she was standby for Big Brother. Says it all really
Why would you wanna leave Devon for London when you have 2 small kids and already earn £90k a year(apparently).
Once I heard that I knew she was on joke business

Is it me or did that blonde lingerie business women act really classless and tacky with her onslaught on Katie??? Up until then I disliked Katie, but I felt the business women looked the fool. She needed to conduct herself in the appropriate manner, not saying things like.
"You are no one.... that's why I am where I am and you are where you are...." seems abit b**chy to me... maybe I am wrong 
But I do agree Katie had no intentions of being anyone's apprentice, she just enjoys the chase but not the catch.

It was entertaining as hell but damn that woman got REALLY nasty with Katie on the show. Maybe someone's cheated with her husband and Katie reminds her of the individual, who knows. Either way I was wondering why she got so personal and nasty with Katie unless they know each other in real life. Not that Katie is any better mind you. Bragging about having affairs with married men doesn't put you in a good light and will only make enemies.

Man what a show and so many areas to look at but indeed the show all in all was ok. the early apprentices that went had no substance and sir Allen was right in removing them from the show, simply put if you are not confident in business then you will be singled out. i know this because in a office enviroment people can be real nasty like double-dealer, sharks..ect
the other contestants that i find worse off was the nuclear physics, I’m sorry but someone with a quick mind like her you would of though she can sell to customers. But no, her understanding of business and commerce is weak so sir Allen had to fire her, get back to building missiles or whatever love??
Adam was a car salesman and from a working background, sir Allen is working class and he started in sales. so you would of thought that Adam would be in their making himself the strongest candidate in the competition. but watching the lad you can Cleary see he lacks confidence, which the other contestants sniff out and sir Allen pick up on, but still allowed him to stay. but the poor kid was reduced to rubble when he got into the board room with Katie and bwoy did that women clopped him up and serve him to sir Allen. she murdered him pure and simple, and to top it off Adam was as silent as a mouse which added to the effect. i was shouting at the TV do something… say something Adam she is Killing you and you don't even know it!!! AAAARRGGG!!!! 
Katie should of went when Allen found out that her and posh kid where f**king up stairs, not only that i believe she survived so long because the British public enjoyed watching this psychopathic/ sexaholic roam the show. Women like her make me sick to my stomach. she even goes on proudly saying that she can get another woman’s husband and f**k him in their married bed, such ruthless is pure evil. Girl has no moral fiber or work ethics. She is an entrainment machine for the lower class of British social hierarchy. she was clearly in it for the fame rather than wanting to win it and get the job. she had a big brother mentality about her, not a business ethos. 
You could see that sir Allen wanted that b**ch long gone, but producers properly told him don't do it. And the person i feel should of won in terms of pure business ideas and innovation was tre, but his hot temper got the better of him. in one of the tasks he even gave jadine a good idea and she blew it.
but the most apprentice that changed the most was jadine, she went from being completely paranoid and attacking everybody, to some who became calm and collective. She thought about that she said and didn’t stand around to argue with them as she would of done back in week 1. but to be honest this show was as much entertaining as watching paint dry.

Fans of The Apprentice never got to see b**chy contestant Katie Hopkins getting fired, after she walked off the show in last week's episode.
But, in a karmic twist of fate, Katie's just been given her marching orders for real, from her job at the Met Office.
Katie was dismissed by the company for bringing the organization into disrepute after snaps of her romping naked in a field with her married lover surfaced in the papers.
"Katie was informed that we were terminating her period of probation with us," a statement from the Met office, where she held down a £90,000 a year job, reads.
"We look at work performance, time keeping and conduct, and review how a prospective employee is capable of achieving and maintaining an acceptable standard in all these areas. Katie did not meet those standards."
 OPP not a good idea after all.

Actually most modern contract these days include a clause that state that you can be disciplined and or sacked if your activities outside of the work place brings your employer or proffession into disrepute... It exist in Teaching, Doctors, Social work and high profile companies that relies on its brand...

Why should your choice of partner bring your employer into disreput? Even if it's with a married man.
Wouldn't a good lawyer worth their salt, have a field day with this one?
