Dreaming_King 08/02/17 8:18:00 PM #1:	Basically the conversation went like this. Black guy asks asian woman if she has dated a black guy before (obviously trying to hit on her). She says no, because all of the ones who have hit on her, in her experience, have been "players". Black guy asks if she dates white men. She said she has, because some of them who have approached her have wanted an actual relationship. Black guy gets angry and starts talking about how weak minded white men are and how they're cowards, ect. ect. Everyone just awkwardly shuffles around as he goes on. Oh well, he's a temp so I'm sure he'll be gone in the next day or so. Still, first time I've seen someone be so open with their racism in person. --- Nil- <cite>Dreaming_King posted [p:884077346] in Black guy ...

Dreaming_King 08/02/17 8:26:35 PM #4:	Shrug It did happen, I was right next to them when it went down. The place I work at is staffed by like 50% temps, meaning just about anyone who walks off the street can get in. We've had violent felons, (many) illegal immigrants who speak zero english, druggies, you name it. We also get some really good people who have hit on hard times, but most of them are pretty awful people and workers. I've only been there for about a year now, so I'm sure crazier stuff than this has happened there. --- Nil- <cite>Dreaming_King posted [p:884077804] in Black guy ...

OmegaTomHank 08/02/17 10:26:46 PM #20:	This is one of the worst topics Ive seen in a while....its like ICOYAR level bad... First the OP makes a big deal about the fact that nobody stood up to this guys horrible racism but then when someone calls him out for not saying anything himself he goes "why should I say anything what would it have accomplished?" Wow.. its almost like.. you could use that logic on everyone else in the room. Not to mention hes talking about some random, irrelevant racism at some place thats clearly some low rent factory job where workplace behavior is basically held up to zero standards other than not falling asleep or beating anyone up or stealing things.... If this had happened in an office maybe this topic wouldnt be completely worthless and a waste of anyones time <cite>OmegaTomHank posted [p:884084820] in Black guy ...
