I have never worked at a place where any employee can write up any little tiff he wants and make it into something it never was in the first place. It forces both sides almost "lawyer up" status because he filed a grevance (for lack of a better word).Ebonyfire said:Hey DVS, I guess I cannot help you. See for many years I have been the only black in the room, and I have been ganged up on by white folks. I just kept fighting for myself.
I say don't take shit from no one. Document your protest. And do not let yourself be used. I hate people who fuck with other people for no good reason.
As for looking away when someone says the wrong thing, well I have found that you are damned if you do, and damned if you don't say something. I have never been allowed to look the other way. Your experience may be different.
From what I've last heard, he feels there is a possible physical confrontation arrising and that is the very last thing I would have ever thought would be said. Actual fighting with fists? Come on, now. Let's get real, here. Nothing was said. I think he just has a persecution complex, if he thinks I plan anything like that. And if he is planning anything like that, he's doing some serious jumping to conclusions.
Unfortunatly, the policy that's created for major sexual, racial and personal conflicts is being allowed to be used for his petty tiff, because the boss is catering to his rant. If she would be the impartial boss she should be, she would have told him to just let it go and go on with his life. But, because she has catered to his rants in the past, I guess he feels (and she seems to allow it) that he can make it seem worse than it ever, EVER was.
No, it's not racial...at least on my end. I don't look at people that way. And, it's sad if people jump to the race thing, when it just happens to be blacks against whites in a situation. I only said it could possibly be racial because I'm the only white in the situation, and it really is so small and petty that I can't figure out any reason why we are still talking about it. Now, his "so called" fears of a physical controntation? Paaa-LEassssse! I'm sorry...I don't swing that eway. I only get physical with women.
