Or maybe, like the guy in that ESPN video said, they don't like his culture, which they express with that term.


Culture and race are totally different

OP, if you survive this, you know what you've gotta do.

Give that little bitch so much work that he can't perform. Give him every shitty task you have. Write him up for any infraction and document all of his failures and infractions. He'll either quit, or you'll have enough firepower to fire his arse.

If you don't get rid of him, he will get rid of you.

frick that dude!

Sounds like you're about to get canned so the company doesn't have to worry about the race police. Probably will replace you with the guy that made a blanket statement about while males.

Yeah. There are ways to deal with this and then there are ways to deal with this.

Who is considered the best litigation attorney in BR?

I'd print out his name and business info from the Web or phonebook and pin it on my wall next to my desk for everyone to see. Maybe get your coworkers to spread a rumor about you hiring them. Let HR know you're playing hardball.

Maybe write "Appointment: 12:00 Wednesday 17th" in red marker on it.

This story makes me so angry. NO you didn't do anything wrong, man. What's worse is you're going to have to belly up and "apologize" and kiss arse probably.

#smh

Gd it... when is our country going to join reality?

Better yet, hire the best black attorney you can find, and file a discrimination suit against your employer and the douchbag kid.

Can you imagine a black attorney arguing in court about racism by a black man against a white man? Liberal heads would explode!

Imagine Jackie Chiles in the courtroom.



"Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I as a black man have experienced racism my whole life, so I am an expert on the subject of racism. And this case, is as clear of a case of racism as I have ever seen!"

Yeah do that. And then get fired when he sued the company for not upholding the open door and non retaliation policies.

Well I have about an hour left of work and I haven't been called to HR yet. I've seen a couple of questions on here... Yes he's black and I do supervise other black workers here. One of the black workers called him out on it and told him that was out of line. I've had crawfish boils at my house which they have attended . After reading some of the these comments I do take responsibility for trying to be friends with the guy when I should have just supervised. They are always saying that this more then a company " this is family".... After today that is BS. I've always tried to get along with everyone and firm when I needed to be ... Like some of the comments said I guess I need to be more of an A hole

Not looking good for you. If you had been called in today, they would just give you a slap on the wrist, tell you not to do it again, etc....if they're taking time to build a case, get witnesses, etc...You gone. Sorry bro. Life isn't fair sometime.

Just because you weren't called in doesn't mean anything.

You screwed up and your boss saw it.

If you really believed there was nothing wrong with what you said, you wouldn't be here complaining like a little bitch.
