| Topic | One of my senior managers just told me about how he called someone the n word |

If hes brave enough to call someone a ****** to their face, what is he actually saying? What specific behaviour is the guy showing that my manager associates with ******s? Am I one bad interaction away from being called a ****** myself? Does he have an inherent bias against black people? These are unimportant unknowns. If he does a bad then you can call him out, until then just ignore it. Your boss can be whatever he wants and give himself whatever reputation he chooses, if what he does bothers you then you're free to leave. FatalAccident posted... Ultimately though he didnt directly call me a ****** but tbh the fact that he can even joke about calling me a ****** is almost bad enough This just in: jokes are as bad as prejudicial attacks, we must clamp down on shit humour. FatalAccident posted... youre thinking about intentionally using a racially charged word to try to undermine somebody That's just mean-spirited. It doesn't say anything good about his character, but I'm sure everybody at some point says something just to upset someone. Nobody's perfect and if somebody is vulnerable to something as simple as a word, that's some low-hanging fruit. --- Doctor Foxx posted...
