lookie here bruh, we know the south has to be backwards and extra racist in order to justify its existence.

P.S. I also think I would have laughed in that VPs face if he asked me to fetch him some water. It wouldn’t have in been scorn, I would have just been like... you cannot be serious, right now.

Yeah, I’m used to the racism being more subtle in order to maintain plausible deniability. The net result I think is as bad in terms of advancement opportunities being limited but it perhaps doesn’t take as much of a psychological toll. (Though maybe it does, there is an element of gaslighting where you’re not 100%…

I still don’t understand why she cared that much but it may be my failure to understand HR people as much as me not understanding racists. Every place I have ever worked if your boss/manager/department head wants something for you then they get it. HR does not have a say. At least all of the shit Mark Luckie was…

Yep, my co had 3 planes & she flew from another state as a courtesy to my VP/GM’s tenure specifically to counter his insistence they not CONTINUE toscrew my Black ass outta money!

SHE TURNED OFFSET, OFF !?!?!

It if feels like your brain is vibrating inside of your skull.

wait hold up! is this you? I thought it was you this time and I ain’t say nothin!  

Then the NA HR VP/GM flew in (!) to argue against the amount, concluding by saying,”This all these people get!”. My VP/GM was ashamed to finally tell me that 3 YEARS LATER as he retired. Good promotion & raise, but should I have been in the Mgt Program? Would I be further ahead?

We seem to have vastly different corporate experience, outlook and approach. Unlike Drake, I truly started from the bottom, sitting at a receptionist desk and it was a hard, long battle with lots of stagnant periods and backslides to get my grown woman MBA and low-level management position. I was asking for MLK/SCLC…

OK I see. The way you described the issue before was as though you were complete divorced from information on the subject. Where as I now understand you to mean that you don’t find most of the advice to be valuable.

oh hey, fellow R58 driver here. I also grew up loving the original TT, though I don’t know what Raphael is on about... the spoiler on original the TT absolutely makes the look. 

well of course not, what the fuck do they care.

I must still be dense right now, I have no idea what it is you are trying to say.

It’s not so much my just family’s experiences. I realize not everyone discusses supply chain management and VC funding over thanksgiving dinner.

I judge all marriages based upon this novelty t-shirt I bought in 2004.

No one listens to the troubles of the college-educated Black professional classes.

Well you should think about it.  Saying that someone is lost is not a dispositive statement.

This is a problem with nationalism generally and not with Jewish nationalism specifically. What will France do when the children of its former colonies outnumber white French people?
