Testing to judge ones mental abilities/capabilities for a job? My that would be called discrimination of some sort today! It seems as long as the body is breathing and warm, the job is filled.....in a lot of the day to day positions...and maybe even higher up!
I have encountered a few situations recently that left me scratching my head......
