Not because she was a woman, but because when George answered the door, instead of Dale saying "I'm here to be interviewed for the Manager position", she says-"You can make me your new manager" She was a little too agressive IMO Also Louise had no reason getting involved in who George should hire to manage HIS STORE

To me it showed she was confident and was up for the job. She would have scored with me with that attitude. George was such a pig, he was finding ways not to hire her, in her presence, and she was aware of it. I would have walked out on him too. I liked that line she delivered to him, "Just remember, some of your brothers are sisters, too."

Blacks as a race have been through so much to let this happen to each other. George didn't have to act like that.

I so agree with you. There is confidence and there is arrogance. She had confidence. George's attitude abt not wanting to hire her showed to me he had reasons that could be interpreted as illegal. I had been asked by employers at interviews, "Why should I hire you?" I went into reasons and said so with confidence. These employers always told me how that influenced them, not to mention other reasons such as my education and resume.

George wasn't supposed to be so obvious about not wanting to hire her-lol All he had to do was say to her-"Ok I will be making a decision in the next couple of days and you will be notified"


BTW: I still think Louise was not supposed to be in the living room when he was interviewing her for the job

He wasn't supposed to be, but he was. He did the same thing in the episode abt not wanting to go to Harlem. He was not very good at lying...he was just too obvious.

Part of the reason was because Louise wasn't supposed to have her ass in the living during the interview which is why he was doing a lot of moon walking-lol

You really want someone to talk abt Louise being in the living room don't you? :rofl:

Whether she was in the living room or not, he still would have behaved that way...especially in the Harlem episode, because HE JUST DIDN'T WANT TO GO TO THAT BASEMENT, and he didn't know how to get out of it, especially after ASSUMING he was speaking at a college.

What Dale said was still wrong-lol You said-"I think I'm the most qualified for this position because......" Not "YOU CAN MAKE ME YOUR NEW MANAGER" without explanation

What is worse in my eyes, is going to your employers home...you don't do that at their house. Of course, we saw it this way because at this point of the series, we only really saw all the interaction at their apartment.

What George should have said was, I will speak with you at my office or at the cleaners, I don't conduct business here at home.

Now correct me if I'm wrong, BUT the cleaning business was Louise's business too. Just because she wasn't hands on with the business then doesn't mean it wasn't hers and she didn't have a say so about anything. They were partners with the cleaning business. When George first started his business she worked right along with him, she worked with him up until they moved into the apartment building. So Louise had every right to be in the Livingroom.

George still has the FINAL WORD on who is hired

George still has the FINAL WORD on who is hired


Yeah right :lol: You have a thing or two to learn

It was their business. If could have asked Louise, "What do you think of this person?" and handed her their application/resume. I get asked my opinion A LOT by my boyfriend when he has dealings with roofing/construction customers and so forth. He values my opinion. And I am sure George did the same thing with Louise, we just never saw it on camera. That may be how it is in YOUR WORLD Solomon, doesn't mean that's the way IT IS.

BOTTOM LINE: you don't go to your employer's home...You conduct business at the BUSINESS, unless George wanted to deal with business at home.

Yeah right :lol: You have a thing or two to learn


Well If it's my store she would not be involved in any hiring decisions. I don't think they were 50/50 in the Cleaning business was they?

By law, YES. What is his, is HERS ALSO.

thank you. you just stated what I put previously: THAT MAY BE HOW IT WOULD BE IN YOUR WORLD, doesn't mean that's the way it IS.

Yeah they were 50/50, in one episode didn't they have a fight about it? The only reason Louise didn't work in the cleaners once they moved to the apartment was because George didn't want his wife working, he felt that since they had money, all Louise had to do was sit home and shop all day. And then in an episode not too long ago Lousie was saying how bored she was and in the end she ended up working at one of their Cleaners.

By law, YES. What is his, is HERS ALSO.

thank you. you just stated what I put previously: THAT MAY BE HOW IT WOULD BE IN YOUR WORLD, doesn't mean that's the way it IS.
Also, just because she didn't work at the cleaners or anything like that, doesn't mean it isn't hers. George wasn't that type of man. He did what he did for the good of HIS FAMILY.

True, but Louise is 50% Jefferson Cleaners too. I think she had a right to be there. George obviously needed help with his decisions.

Solomon, you love debating with someone. Whenever someone says black, you say white, I say cat, you say dog, etc.

Irene and Brie, this is another one of Solomon finding a way to hate a chubby black woman. thinking of a reason to faze Weezy out the scene.:lol:

TV LAND cut the part out when George says to Louise-"STAY OUT OF MY BUSINESS"

You're grasping for straws :lol:

That's a figure of speech. He was speaking FIGURATIVELY not LITERALLY.

Exactly

Ok, so you want women to wear high heels, not be fat, not be too dark, not wear sneakers, not like amusement parks, not speak during sports, bring you dinner, accept you not paying for dinner, not have a say in your business or work, just sit there and be pretty and dumb.

LMFAO :brent

Too damn funny :brent

And God forbid they should lose their looks, because Solomon will dump their ass.:crazy:

Not at all, I was just saying like you George shouldn't have been so obvious about not wanting to hire gayle. Just like me, I been on blind dates where I wasn't really feeling her but I didn't let her know that i just ended the meeting on a postive note

And God forbid they should lose their looks, because Solomon will dump their ass.:crazy:

Ain't that the truth.

She had a take charge attitude, which is what is needed in business.

Ah, the classic Solomon, when the tough gets going, resort to saying, "That's not what I meant...said," etc. You said all this stuff abt Louise and now you are trying to get yourself out of it, like a cow stuck in the mud.:crazy:

I was saying NO to all the other stuff you were saying-lol I still feel that it was George's decision who he wanted to hire for his stores. And like said, he should of had the interview at the store.



BTW: George was right about SWEARING in front of women. Men can talk to each other differently without worrying about someone being offended. There was a time when a Male Manager I worked with was CURSING and Telling us to get Better at what we do and guess who took his language personal? A woman-lol I wasn' fazed by it at all

I am the one who stated business should be conducted at work, not home.

Yes, George had the decisions in hiring and firing, I agree. Doesn't mean he never consulted with Louise on business matters, including personnel. You brought up the fact that it was HIS stores, not hers.

I have no problem with cursing. If anything, people have a problem with me being so BLUNT AND HONEST. Something that has occurred here on the board. If anything, I have preferred working with MEN as opposed to women because of gossip, laziness, stupidity (I hate stupid women), and other stupid factors. I have had a better time dealing with men co-workers than female. I had to deal with so many jealous and catty ladies.
I can take bad language and a gung ho attitude...mind you, this doesn't mean women can't be the same way. I onced worked for an attorney who was female, had her own law office and she was hard-working, a cussing type of person and yet, had class, was a lady and was mean when needed to be.

My problem with having women co-workers was they were very MOODY!!!!!!!!!!

And they do not know how to let things go. I, myself, preferred working with and for men than women. I work with all women in my department and it is quite anti-male and when they get rubbed the wrong way they hold on to it for dear life. One should not dibble and dabble with personal and personnel when on the clock.

It's called PMS...Putting up with Men's S**t...:rolleyes:
