Racism at work place
-
One of our staff misunderstood my behaviour at work place and we had a big argument . During that she started talking about my race and skin color and all. I directly went to HR and made a complain , they are investigating it now. We are supposed to go for discussion this Friday. How should I handle this? I am disturbed , don't want to face that lady during the office hours, but have no option, whenever I see her ,I am feeling really uncomfortable. Any advice guys?
First of all, try not to be too sensitive. Then try to think what was actually said and if it was really a "racist" remark. Make sure whatever she said was actually against your race (not just you), not just a joke or a lighthearted jab. Also, think of what you said and ensure that it was not hurting and personal in anyway, racist or otherwise. If you think your complaint is still genuine and valid, then let the meeting continue. Place your case. The end resutl will depend on your company HR policies against such acts. You should try and ignore occasional remarks unless they are genuine or really very bad. Also, such a once off comment could have said in rage, and may not be what the person really thinks.

Typical American! We are all racist. I make remarks about the Yanks, The Aussies, The Sheep Shaggers Welsh, The Scots, The Irish, The Krauts, The Wops, The Dagos, The Injuns, The Chinks, The Nips, The Saffers, The Argies, The Canucks, The Yids, The Arabs, etc etc etc... I do it in jest and expect, as an English Chap, to be ridiculed back. Don't be so sensitive and precious.

Let HR handle it. Life's too short to get stressed over a misunderstanding, and if she is truly a racist then she's isn't worth wasting time on.

Concentrate on you work. If you do so you would not have had argument in the first place.

You have missed Indians (brown, asian, whatever). You are racist - missing us out like that. :)
Questions are being asked about the Indian Foreign aid. India is a wealthy country with millions of people worth over a $Million. And yet they give no aid to the poverty stricken and homeless in the third world country that is England. The Caste system here is terrible, and the bottom of the heap are 'The Unemployables' and yet Indian Government does nothing to aid these people. Please petition your government to help England, give a little charity.

What did you do, and how did she "misunderstand" it. As far as being "disturbed" about it, I think you just need to go to the store and buy some big girl panties.

I sympathise with your plight. Hopefully by the time you meet on Friday, some of the proverbial dust would have settled. I'm sure it'll be uncomfortable until then so keep your integrity on firm foundations. Be civil to her which won't be a natural response but don't give her any opportunity to collate anything against you. My wife is a white South African who works for the NHS. They had a ward meeting some time back and they were discussing how to respond to Asian patients who are abusive to the nurses. The manager said to my wife "there's no point asking her, she's South African and she's a racist." My wife sat there and toyed with the idea of reporting her for her abuse but she didn't. I sometimes think there are more racists here in the UK than I ever knew in SA. :) Best of luck to you.

You take Chinese foreign aid, and £20 Billion later you feel like some more.
