"I was interviewing clerks for a gas station. One was a relative of a friend of my supervisor. He was clean and showed up on time. He also answered every question with “Back when I was selling crack cocaine…” My supervisor said I had to hire him, so I did. It went as well as you might imagine."

Sadly, it does matter, but it shouldn't. Just the usual double standard we're all used to.
I am curious as well. There's three white guys, two Mexicans, an Indian and four black guys and one black girl at my office. The blacks use the N-WORD in every third sentence.
