i got my first race card pulled on me yesterday. second today.
because, you know, you obviously can't dislike somebody because they're a fucking moron. you can't dislike them because they do shitty ass work that drags the rest of the shop down. you can't dislike them because you have to repeat yourself hundreds of times before something hopefully gets through. oh no, it's TOTALLY AND OBVIOUSLY BECAUSE THEY'RE BLACK.
but, "thas' coo'. it don't phaaaase [him] me. i seen people git stabbed, i seen people git shot and KILLED. and i'm still heaya'. i'm hard. i'm a mo'fuckin' SOLDIA'."
nothing i said yesterday (worthless piece of shit, fucking faggot, everyone in this dealership fucking hates you, just fucking leave if you can't figure out how to do something as simple as wash a fucking car) had anything to do with race. granted, i may have crossed some social conduct line, screaming those things so that the whole shop could hear, but no time have i said or implied that i hate his fucking guts because he's black.
if i lose my temper like that again, and start flinging insults, i'll probably lose my job ("you are NOT allowed to talk to people like that."). it's very unfortunate for me that i work in close vicinity with two of the most ignorant people i have ever met. in my entire life.
that's the only remotely interesting thing going on in my life. and it's not even interesting. it's god damn infuriating.
