How Diverse Is Your Workplace?

A mostly-unrelated post made me think about just how diverse my workplace is.

How about yours?

No, this isn't some government survey or sting - please keep your workplace anonymous, if you choose to post...
 
I'll start: in my workplace I've got these ethnicities: (technically the correct word is "races" but I don't like using that; our "race" is Human)

Caucasian
Asian
Indian (as in India Indian, not Native American)
Hispanic / Latin
Black (I'm not saying "African-American" because they're not all from America...)
Mixtures

But it's not just a bunch of Americans with diverse ethnicities, there's also diverse countries of origin. There's people from:

America (of course)
Canada (even some Quebecois!)
Mexico
Puerto Rico
Britain
Ireland
France
Switzerland
Germany; lots of Germans...
Greece
Turkey
Croatia
India
Pakistan
China
and I'm sure there's more that I just don't know about...

And I hear these languages being spoken:

English (thankfully)
Spanish
French
Chinese (Mandarin)
German; lots of German...

So, pretty diverse.
 
we have... syrian, egyptian, indian, jordanian, american, filipino doctors... for nurses and allied health its a mix of indian, filipinos, jordanians... for admin staff we have iranian, pakistanis, indians, filipinos, palestinians, qataris... for our security personnel and cleaners, indians, nepalis, srilankans, ethiopians, ugandans, egyptians, kenyans..... so i guess we are that diversed... and dont get me starting with our patients... i could list down at least 50
 
Not too diverse here. Mostly Black folks here. Got an Indian (from India) and Chinese guy in my section.

Mostly female and older (40+).
 
One self employed white male.
Though whites are the minority by 2-3% here in this state.
Theres like two black people, I think.
