so, my husband's boss is ungodly racist, and my husband has been picking up on it.
he tells me , " the united states was better when it was 95 % white."
I have never flipped out on him like that before, but that man deserved my wrath.
the US has never been primarily white.
ever.
I'm Latina and my little sister is half African
like. I know he's not that stupid.
why the fuck would he ever say that?
He had a well deserved slap for his ignorance. I can't wait until he gets a new job so that guy can stop influencing him.
I'm so sorry that he's picking up on the stupidity of his boss. I would have shut it down real quick. I see this at my work also and it pisses me off every time i hear one of my older co worker say "The Mexicans" or use the N word. Or in my bf's family when I hear about the "boarder hopper illegals" or get asked "what kind of jobs do you people have?Mcdonalds?"Ummmm... Do you not realize how insensitive that is? You dont hear me calling people "crackers." How will I explain my child to them? Mexican, Filipino, Hawaiian, Chinese, Italian, & Norweigan. Hmmm.
@viiiimcmxciv, I think he did, because he hasn't made a comment like that since. I understand being skeptical about certain religions, but race? no. he has an interview somewhere else, so hopefully he can get away from him
Goodness :/ it's always terrible when people change because of the influences they're around. Maybe he'll realize what he said and change his attitude x:
he knows, matt isn't racist and never has said these things until he's been hanging out with his boss
the worst part is he's 1/2 Pocono
he's never been like this until he got this job
matt's family makes Mexican jokes at me all the time and it's just... really? Latina doesn't mean Mexican. and I don't make jokes about them
but then again I do mutter " white people" every time they say jalla pen yo (jalepeño)
