I'm not racist when discriminating against my own race!
Y hello thar, first wank report, be gentle. Found it on my own, but a nice mousy reported it on [info]wank_report, too. Thanks, mousey *gives cheese*.

Over on [info]customers_suck, the often hilarious but wanky community about bad customers and the woes of retail, [info]angelcarnivore posts a rant about a customer which happens to be Puerto-Rican and then proceeds to explain that those Puerto-Ricans and Blacks who aren't sucky customers are white on the inside.


About two years ago one of Cardi's friends questioned why I was wary of black and hispanic men when it came to dating and just general association.

Well, remember Owen- the Puerto Rican man who gave me a cigar earlier this year?

A few months ago he complained about the state of not-crisp-newness of one hundred one-dollar bills that I had to trade, claiming that the book-keeping department no longer gave me crisp one dollar bills because they did not want him to have crisp ones.

I told him that we weren't supposed to exchange money to begin with, and that I did at all was as a favor to him.

A week or two went by and I was helping an elderly man with some complaint he had- because we are supposed to keep the customer happy. Owen nearly shoved the old man trying to get.. I don't even know what. He and the old man exchanged words and because I had sided with the old man I was in the middle of serving- he actually went to the CCOM, Susan, and told her that that was the second time I was rude to him, and if there was a third time he would jump over the counter and throttle me.

Yeah.

Anyway, I was told I never had to deal with him again. Ever; and that if he were to show up to get one of the other people in book keeping to deal with him. Susan, all of book keeping, the MIC as well as the Unit Director and Store Director know what happened.

Ever since then if I am working he sulks by, two or three time either using a cane or riding in one of the eletrical wheelchairs. If he actually has something wrong with him, or what, I don't know and don't particularly care to know. I was actually nervous about it for a long time.

Today he waited by the counter, and I called over Carmen. He had disappeared by the time she came over. He resurfaced and while Carmen cashed his check, I had to explain the situation to Lori- who didn't know because she had not been there that day and because I'm not the gossipy type.

The asshole had the unmitigated nerve to complain about me to her, saying that I was refusing to acknowledge him being there, which was rude. This man who had threated my safety- not to me but to my manager!

And I know there are exceptions to every rule- but unfortunately men like that are primarily what hispanic men are like. Or the black men who can't seem to differentiate civil discourse as anything not either directly a flirtation or a threat upon their manhood.

So really, I find myself being civil and friendly and at my best to upper middle-class, or educated lower middle class white men. Because they don't end up making me feel either cheap or afraid by the end of five minutes. I find myself more lenient about the rules with white people because minorities- real minorities, not the educated ones with the white on the inside- FULLY embrace those hurtful stereotypical attitudes.

I have off tomorrow- which means I get one whole day where a fat short Mexican woman isn't trying to rip me off, or dyed-blond piece of white trailer trash isn't trying to sell me back cosmetics they stole from my store.

I really enjoy my job- except for the part where it makes me lean toward the policy of segregation. Really, I could happily check lotto tickets and cash checks for rich forty-something white men ALL day.

Fuckers.



The first posts are like "This ought to be good. Hey, I have popcorn!".
And, inevitably, they are proven right (though that was somewhat of a lame start).

The OP then comes back and lectures people that having a Tenchi Muyo username and loving Dr. Who is wrong. Or something. Hell if I know where that came from. Also, she's Puerto-Rican herself, so it's absolutely okay for her to be racist towards Blacks, Native Americans and Whites. Joy?

She then shares her thoughts on yaoi about white middle-class women, declares herself not a troll because she can spell and generally misses the point.

Dictionary definitions FTW! ... Aaaand the OP neatly misses [info]iskender's nicely delivered pwning. (I know there's a [info]jurisprudence law about quoting the dictionary, but I can't remember or find it at the moment, sorry.)

People defend her by saying it's behaviourism or she's got the right to be a racist express her opinion freely.

There's bonus mini feminist wank, too.

On the second page some friends turn up to tell her how racist she is, haha (or maybe some on the first page? Seems she's friendly with some of the agreeing posters), and I am le tired :-(. So go and see yourself. It's a great, if not very big wank all in all - it even has yams.

Disclaimer: Couldn't find the age of the OP anywhere, but she seems to have been on f_w before, so I guessed she's safe. Her eagerness to get reported almost made me not do it, but then I decided I like [info]customers_suck wank too much.

Either have an lj-handle that fits your love of *gah* new Doctor Who, or get a lj-theme that has to do with Tenchi Muyo. You cannot have both, you must chose, padawan.

Yeah, that's right, you're only allowed to like one thing, and everything that you have has to match! Which is why I have a default icon that matches my username, just like all my other... icons...

...well, shit. *sighs*

Actually, I have been known to make men solidify at least in certain areas of the body with my stare. My head, yeah- small black hole. You know those, um, small robots we launch at Mars and then suddenly they lose contact with Earth? Totally get sucked up into my head.

Oh yeah... Bermuda triangle? Connected to the small black hole in my head. Amelia Erheart? In my head. Proof of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq- sorry guys, the black hole in my head ate it. My bad. Lindberg baby, this is odd, because I wasn't born yet, but still, in my head.

It's that powerful, the small black hole in my head.

And those statues that once were men but were suddenly petrified by my basilisk-like stare? In my head. That's where all missing people go.

^_^ I wish I had short term memory.. but there's a black hole instead.


What? Her attempts at sarcasm fail.

Bitch is CRAZY.

Well, she knows enough that Washu is from Tenchi Muyo, though I'm guessing she's never seen the second OVA.

And why the hell does it matter if your LJ name matches your icons or layout? Was that in the Great LJ Book of Etiquette? Where can I get my copy?

She knows! Sort of.

Either have an lj-handle that fits your love of *gah* new Doctor Who, or get a lj-theme that has to do with Tenchi Muyo. You cannot have both, you must chose, padawan.
My username is that of a webcomic I don't do anymore. Should I change all my icons to reflect that?


Because, no. My lj-handle are two random english nouns strung together as sort of a commentary on the paradox that is my basic personality.
Read: 'I chose it because it sounds cool! Totally different from the rest of the Internet, because I used "paradox".'

Actually, I have been known to make men solidify at least in certain areas of the body with my stare. My head, yeah- small black hole. You know those, um, small robots we launch at Mars and then suddenly they lose contact with Earth? Totally get sucked up into my head.

Oh yeah... Bermuda triangle? Connected to the small black hole in my head. Amelia Erheart? In my head. Proof of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq- sorry guys, the black hole in my head ate it. My bad. Lindberg baby, this is odd, because I wasn't born yet, but still, in my head.

Puerto-Ricans and Blacks who aren't sucky customers are white on the inside.

WHAT.

I really don't know what to say beyond that.
Other than, well, you know. I live in Puerto Rico, am Puerto Rican, and think this is the stupidest shit.

I also don't even know what to say about using behaviorism as an excuse to be prejudice. No, sorry. It DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY.

My icon feels rather appropriate right now.

Oddly enough, or perhaps not, I don't particularly like the middle class white women. They're... kinda stupid. Don't know how to use coupons, buy organic meats don't properly refridgerate it and then yell bloody murder when after a week it goes bad before they cook it.

I'm crushed really. Oh well, I'll go back to filing my nails and giggling about boys.
