Better hope they don't press charges. Then you'll have a whole different set of problems on your hands

Fired/quit?
-
First thing you did wrong was not check that ? from the start. Once these white people see you don't say ? , it's only going to get worst. You snapped.cause of forcing yourself to tolerate that ? . You can't keep ? like that bottled without it exploding into something later and bigger.
You should have gone to HR about it, true. But that doesn't guarantee that ? is going to get handled, either. Your HR could easily give you the runaround. Or a meaningless ethics meeting or say you need to have an anger management class for confronting dude, even if in a non violent way. Or some other ? that does nothing but cover they ass in case of a lawsuit.
Folks mentioning the DOL and EOE rights, that ? is useless unless you have undeniable proof of a violation. Nothing short of stupidity or/and a blatant lack of ? given is going to let a strong case be made in court. At the very least the company would of done something to cover it's ass first and foremost. The up side is that the perpetrators would of been "disciplined". It only when a total lack of disregard is evident can they even start to investigate. I doubt dude would of gotten anything financially.
Don't think for a second that the laws are there to protect workers or black folks. But I doubt the guy is going to file charges. Guilt is a powerful thing and he knows that ? was wrong. Pretty sure you got him shook, though. -
? them ? , b. you did the right thing

Dead @ /quit. *Oprah 'nah ? ' gif*
What city and state you in? Makin african sounds!?!? Sheesh. Thats that pure, throwback racism. Thats that Frank Lucas blue magic 98% pure, not that stepped on low grade racism -
Like the other posters said before, you have to check all of that ? the first time it happens. White people are like children when it comes to things like that. They push until you set the boundaries.
Sometimes (usually) your presence alone puts them in check, but you come off as one of those rubben studdard types that they feel cozy around, so stop it early next time. -
Being passive aggressive got you into unfortunate situation.
You played right into their hands.
Never estimate how evil people can be -

? ? that, he shouldve choked that ? out and cracked his ass with his own show. ? EM -
? all that, you choked that punk ass racist out and treated him like a ? and you felt better.
You did not belong there.
The world isn't all about money.You have a soul.
Imagine dying knowing that you got punked by racist white Co workers all the time and you accepted to get paid.
Instead when.another man tried your manhood you made him pay.
You will get another job and hopefully its a better one.For now go to a local workforce or one of those telemarketing jobs til you back in the mix.

Hold your head up bruh. I wish you luck in your job search. I don't blame you one bit for choking his ass out. Hopefully they don't try to jam you up more and you bounce back with a better situation.
Hopefully you learned like many have already stated that you have to nip ? like that in the bud from the jump because if you don't people are going to keep trying you, they are going to take your silence as acceptance. -

Look where trust in the system got Trayvons mother and father.
nowhere.
Zimmerman is Red carpet now.
You did the right thing. I hope ? bless this brother and don't make him struggle.
They were beginning to make a mockery of him.They already told him he's qualified but probably wont fit in.
Then they tried to show him and one of them nearly lost they lives.They will prob not hire another black man but I bet they don't make those sounds at any.other blacks either.
Running to tell is not a manly characteristic,its OK for women,but if you a man,no Bueno.Nobody respects a man.who.can't take care of his own problems.This man got some ? redemption.
This one of those make a choice stories, either sit and take it,try to tell...or say ? this,and mash out.I'm glad he mashed out,? made me feel like I won too

Let's be honest here, ? have been doing this since our ancestors touched the shore.
Ol' boy in the other thread played they game and got his dread locks cut off. Obama is "the end of america", as well as the "first ? president", and he's as white washed as they come. Sherman is smarter than most of the folks that talked ? about him and he's still a "thug".
Play their game. Black folks looking like the New Orleans Saints out here. -

na it also depends on how you got fired. If u were laid off, u good but if u was fired for work ethic purposes you aint gettin ? lol. Well atleast in NY. My boy was caught sleeping in a break room and got fired, lied to unemployment said he was laid off and recieved benefits. Them ? gave him one check before they fullyvreviewed his case and cut that ? off wit the quickness hahaha. -
I just realised every time I post in this ? Im ?
