"Am I black?"

[CrazyKell]

A girl at work was talking about not being included in some testing. And then she dropped this bomb:

"What? Am I black?"

:scratch: :skep:

So I called her out on it saying it was not only a poor choice of words, but a very poor reflection on her.

Now there's a big hullabaloo and I will probably going into HR soon. :lmao:

But honestly....who says that? :wtfru:

[shmike]

I've heard it lots.

Part of growing up in the south.

It's a pretty stupid question: She's obviously not black since she has a job.

[Rider]

But honestly....who says that? :wtfru:

White people.

[Apoc]

Ya, its pretty common. Definateley not unheard of. I have probably said it once or twice myself. But we've had this conversation, I didnt know ANYONE liked black people before I was old enough to leave this area. :lol:

[Trip]

lol, don't go to HR

[LeeNetworX]

lol, don't go to HR

I think she meant she's expecting to be called into HR, not that she's going to them. I could be wrong, though.

[CrazyKell]

I think she meant she's expecting to be called into HR, not that she's going to them. I could be wrong, though.

Working with chicks is a big thumbs down. :td: It's a big badness around here.

The girl I said something to, she's been crying at her desk, gone into the washroom to have a powow with someone, crying away. It's bad.

[pauldun170]

Kinda unfamiliar to me.
However this is coming from the guy that just recently learned what "taint" meant.

[njchopper87]

:lol: She's trying to make herself out to be a victim? That's pretty funny.

[z06boy]

I can't believe someone would say that these days...I thought that everyone used 'Mexican' nowadays...well except for the Mexicans...I think they say 'illegal alien' in this instance. :whatwhat:




:blowup:

[the chi]

Props for saying something. People dont know how inappropriate they are unless someone tells them.

[EpyonXero]

Never heard that before. Probably because Im black.

But the fact that people say that, and that apparently its a common expression, shows that all the talk you hear about racism and discrimination bening ancient history and that ignoring it will make it go away is BS. An expresion like that shows a concious or subconcious belief that excuding someone because of their race is normal or expected.

[CrazyKell]

:lol: She's trying to make herself out to be a victim? That's pretty funny.

Ya, apparently she's the victim. She's in with our boss behind closed doors right now. I'm sure I'll be going in soon. :lol:

Just yesterday she told me that if I ever had a problem with her I should just talk to her about it. So i did. Apparently she's the victim now.

And we have a team building exercise at lunch....which she's not going to now! :lol:

[askmrjesus]

She should have replaced "Black" with "Chopped Liver".

She still would have wound up crying in the bathroom, but the reasons would have been completely different.

JC

[the chi]

Just tell HR you were seriously offended by her racist manner... She is the one in the wrong for saying something so obviously ignorant and hateful.

[skiergirl]

What's she gona say to HR that matters? I can hear that conversation now - 'Well I made a racist comment about black people and she she told me that was a poor reflection on me'...

[z06boy]

She should have replaced "Black" with "Chopped Liver".

:lol: True or even "red headed step-child"....well unless she works with someone with red hair...yep..."Chopped Liver" it is...

[pauldun170]

What if she's in there telling them that you called her a cracker. What if shes making up a story where you are the racist and you attacked her.

Keep us up to date

[CrazyKell]

I don't know what she's going to say.

My boss has a tendency to derail conversations. So I'm just going to stick to the facts. She said a comment (that several people heard, I'm just the one who said something), I asked her to clarify said comment, then told her I found it inappropriate and a poor reflection on her especially considering one of our co-workers has a black son and one has a black mother.

boom goes the dynamite

[sherri_chickie]

You did nothing wrong, just remember that.

My sister called in one of her employees and had a chit chat with her coming in late every day and then having the nerve to log in overtime because she stayed a couple minutes late.

Girl ran to the big boss.. Needless to say that my sister was told to be more respectful of flex time. My sister couldnt care less if they flex their time as long as their work gets done, but she does care about them stealing time and lying about it. GRR

The more PC the world becomes, the more "hidden" racism becomes. Not everyone grows up in an environment that is "racist' free. If you did, your parents were hippies.

[Apoc]

This is why its better to say nothing at all, even if it offends you.

[KSGregman]

The fact that something like this would even MAKE it to HR speaks to the utterly ridiculous level of political correctness we've been forced to submit to.

Someone acted like an asshole....another took offense to it and called her out on it. End of story, right?

WRONG...."wrong do-ers" have feelings too!! They have RIGHTS!!

Fecking hell...it's like being in a room full of crazy people.

[CrazyKell]

That's what i thought. But girls get their feelings hurt.

You probably embarassed the hell out of her and thats why she's acting like she is. Its not about what you said, its the fact that you called her out.

Again proving that she is not black.

Sounds like a Title 9 problem to me.

#9 White Collar Crime Penalty Enhancement

Title IX consists of six sections. This section is also called the “White Collar Crime Penalty Enhancement Act of 2002.” This section increases the criminal penalties associated with white-collar crimes and conspiracies. It recommends stronger sentencing guidelines for blacks and specifically adds failure to certify corporate financial reports as a criminal offense. Additionally, failure to not be black, can result in bathroom crying jags.

If someone is on the phone with a client and in the background the client hears bullshit like "what am I, black", thats a potential relationship out the window. Thats money lost. Thats word out on the street that this office is filled with morons.


Damn fucking right if someone says something thats going to make this office look bad, make this company look bad I'm going to be right in their face telling them.
"That's not appropriate"

Mind you, if we are in someone's office or the "coast is clear", we can be a bunch of foul mouthed anti pc jerkoffs that violate every multi cultural\sex harassment code out there. The key word, something that a few people who are just not bright enough to understand is discretion.

I know a few of you don't work in a corporate environment so stuff like this may not be an issue. Just to give you a heads up.
"That's not appropriate" is corprate speak for "You're a fucking idiot"


To sum up, if you are stupid enough to say shit like "Am I black?" in the office then you stupid enough to get fired.

Do you really need it spelled out to you?

Apparently, you're the only fucking person in the thread who DOESN'T realize that you've made an ass of yourself. :lmao:

nuggets were better before they healthyfied them. Then again if im really gonna go to a FF establishment its probably gonna be chic-fil-a.

Yeah, I wish they had those up here. :(

Great sub sandwiches. Fresh bread but it's white bread though. Meat is great quality and they are faster than MD's and healthier but not much more expensive given the amount of food. $5.50 for a good size sub. add a drink and it's not much more than a "value" meal from ShitDonalds.

What I dont get is peoples entitlement to feel offended over a stupid comment. And I mean on both sides. Kell for being offended she said it, and her being offended she got called out.

Im glad i've never had to work with women. With men, you never have to worry about this shit. If you complained about a stupid comment and got a coworker in trouble, you'd be made fun of till you cried or quit. Theres no reason to care, even a little bit, about what words come out of someone elses mouth.

I have to agree,I don't see why Kelly was offended in the first place... who cares what that chick has to say? Personally I hear racist remarks all day, every day because people don't realize that I'm black and I install security systems. I don't know how many times I've heard,"We decided we may as well get this alarm with all the ni**ers moving in around here." I find it quite amusing considering that they have given me all of their credit info and passwords.:lol:

I have said in the past that no one gets to choose for you what offends you....I know that I've used this subject as a means to start fights in the past but seriously who cares what people have to say?

Say all you want at home. In an office....discretion is key. :idk:

Saying nothing to me is the same as making the comment. :idk:

Hmmm - sounds good 'cept for the white bread part (talk about in-line with the thread :lol:) - I'm a whole grain bread fan myself.

It definitely sounds better than McD/BK stuff which is good. That stuff kills me when I'm forced to eat it.

By saying nothing you effectively sanction the comment.

Not true, you just don't want to start bullshit office politics.

It still holds true.

I'd like to be included in this thread just to add a little more fail.

Also, I'd like to point out that I grew up in Louisiana, lived in Texas and Alabama, have close family in Mississippi, and this is the first time I've heard (read) the expression, "What, am I black?"

But I have been all over the world and I can say this with utmost certainty: racism will never be dead. And what we've got in the States right now is a pretty fucking pale version.

We had some pretty hard core racism. Then we finally got around to fixing the law so we could piss off southern states.
But there was still racism...

but then Beverly Hills Cop came out and now all thats left is this whiney annoying racism.

Damn its annoying.

But McBean was quite wrong. I’m quite happy to say.
That the Sneetches got really quite smart on that day.
The day they decided that Sneetches are Sneetches.
And no kind of Sneetch is the best on the beaches.
That day, all the Sneetches forgot about stars and whether
They had one, or not, upon thars.

Damn its annoying.I always thought Lethal Weapon was the healing salve. Seriously, an Australian white supremist and a large liberal black man working together to kill people more efficiently and hilariously?

The only movie more racism-absorbing was Knockaround Guys, where Vin Diesel combines all ethnicities to form Super Jew.

You say something after work behind closed doors. Not in front of other people causing a scene.

Or run it by the Japanese, for whom a race based faith was cause to fight.
Ask your local son of China who is the best ethnicity
Or watch the news to see Arabs hate Jews with profound tenacity

this is why we let the ugandans do the intimidating overseas :lol:

Whats wrong with saying it at work behind closed doors.
No one is talking about doing it in front of an audience.

It lacks impact.

Fine, at work, after work, it doesn't matter, just not in front of other workers. It doesn't sound like this incident went down that way.

I have tact in the office but on the internet, I have no tact, so fuck yourself and have a good day. :lol

Fuck that. If the crying bitch wants to say stupid shit in front of the other workers, then the other workers should be a witness to the beat down.

Do they have a dick season in Tennessee, or is it more of a year round kinda thing?

I actually think that dicks are perennials and bloom randomly.

I think this is the first time I agree with Tigger. Put it in the books.

[Homeslice]

agreed.

OR, you want that person to keep being who they are, so that they never make the corrections necessary to keep themselves from getting fired.

And Kell, you DID say something about his GF's looks a few weeks ago when he posted a pic.....just sayin.

As for Tigger's alarm customers.....Not surprised. So much pent-up racial BS in the South... The old white people down there complain when ANY other race moves into their neighborhood, like it's going to bring their value down. Funny thing is when I lived in G-boro there were a couple businesses with signs on them saying "colored funeral home" or "colored tax preparer"..........people still want to keep to their own......shit cracks me up

Keep in mind kids that I'm talking about a work environment involving co-workers.
