Racist customers

[MadMike]

Personally, I think the electrion of a black president has touched a nerve with the extreem right.

Second warning, people! Another mod already told everyone to keep the Fratching-style comments off here. Political comments definitely falls under that category.

Any more of this, and the thread will be closed and infractions will be handed out.

I get those too, the ones who expect you to commiserate with their opinions, and when you refrain for whatever reason they decide your politics must be absolutely the opposite of theirs and are just horrorstruck.

Mine come in the form of customers ranting about the fact that they had to speak to someone with an accent. They always seem to end with "Don't you agree?" and I just want to beat my head against the monitor. My personal political opinions have no place being stated over a phone on a recorded business call.

When he isn't inflicting punishment...

Can't tell the difference with him myself

back to the sc, oiy what an ass, pure and simple, a purebreed jerk

And we think we should ship all of y'all back to where you came from, too.

Of course, in my case, that'd be shipping me back to Denver.

In my case, I'd probably be booted to Quebec, since it seems my dad's side of the family is pretty much French-Canadian, but my mom's side of the family is from all over.

[Food Lady]

Well, you'd have to split me into 16 parts and send one to Florida and one to New England (Cherokee and Seminole).

I had an old hag who said she hated filthy indians and hated going to the casinos owned by them. My husband is an indian. Bitch.

I hate people like that. They should just keep their mouths SHUT.

On the other hand, when they do flap their gums, you know exactly where they stand.

And can take action to make sure that "where they stand" is as far from you as possible. Physically, I mean.

I assume you meant walking away from them...instead of tossing them through a plate-glass window

Seriously, I can't go back to where I came from. Well, unless I'm willing to subdivide myself into several pieces. Of course, things get confusing, since there are Native Americans in the family, and some of my Norwegian ancestors were rumored to have landed in Newfoundland about 500 years before Columbus...

Oh, no, defenestration is always an option.

(for the humor impaired; I kid. I'd never seriously suggest that bigoted asshats be chucked out the nearest window... no matter how much they might deserve it)

But but, there will be a pile of horse shit to break their fall. We're not barbarians after all.

Well, since most plate glass windows I have access to are big and expensive, the latter tends to be a bit hard on the budget.

(And, at least in my experience, a lot of the fatheads have plenty of fat to go around for the rest of them, which makes picking them up somewhat difficult for my non-Ahnuld self.)

Where do you think we are, Prague?

Yeah, I'd have that problem, not to mention if anyone tries to send me back to Vancouver there will be...issues. Further back? Scotland, Ireland, Norway, the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Russia, and there's Cree in my maternal grandfather's ancestry. Yikes.

In a related story I was once teaching a high school class and someone in class was rapping about something so I started making up some rhymes about the story we were gonna read. This girl who's mixed made a comment about me being white. I just said, "Am I really white! Gee.......I better go look in the mirror again just to make sure I am!"

It was kinda irritating to me. Not to the point where I'd wanna hit someone, but a little irritating.

We have much to learn from the Czechs.

Whenever I got someone on the phone that made a comment even remotely about race or speaking english, I'd do one of two things:

Pour on the drawl

Put on my Foamy Indian Tech Support voice, which I'm quite good at...
