I turned in my resignation. It was seemingly all good. The company put me thru hell and I (and our revenue numbers) struggled to tread water so I’m glad to be done. But then, I $H¡+ you not…. My manager Slacked me and then immediately deleted a message, so insane and out of character I could barely believe it. A fricking recorded freestyle rap with my coworker. Like celebrating and rapping badly about startup life. And yes. *I have the whole thing recorded and saved* I’m black. They’re two white women. We’ve never talked about music ever. I didn’t ask for this. I’m flabbergasted. I feel like I should do something but I don’t know what honestly. I’m just utterly perplexed. The MICROAGGRESSION and the CAUCASITY What the @)$;# would you do? Gonna be a helluva exit interview. #culture #officelife #workplace #tech #harassment #race #microaggression
Keep fighting. Many obstacles shall be overcome.
Sis (non-gender specific), you right 😞
Reread the post. This isn't an obstacle related to adversity of any kind. They weren't rapping about OP. They weren't actually celebrating OP's departure (if they were, OP would've said that they were rapping about OP). Two people who enjoy rap just got too comfortable with OP who was leaving the company (i.e., no longer in a professional relationship, maybe they can be cool together) and decided to send the equivalent of a bad YouTube video they made about startup life. None of this was targeting OP either in intent or de facto. OP just wants to stir up racial outrage over nothing. We really have to read the facts carefully before taking people like OP at their word.
Lmaooo this is wild
It’s a startup life for us 🎶🎼🎺😂😂
“This ain’t a cry for help, this is just saying that we grind. And we grind, and we grind, and we grind” A direct quote. I should post this shit for real…
Sorry you went through this. Always have the exact reaction when this happens to me. Genuinely just sucks.
You regularly have managers freestyle rapping about your departure?
Yeah I hope this hasn’t happened to you before… but like I wish I was making this up… luckily I recorded it
Is your manager Michael Scott?
If its Michael Scott then I love him and I'll die for him.
Sittin’ in my office with a plate of grilled bacon, Call my man Dwight just to see what was shakin’ Yo Mike, our town is dope and pretty, So check out how we live in the Electric City! They call it Scranton. What? The Electric City Scranton What? The Electric City
You deserve better than this kind of people and culture. This behavior speaks volumes about their upbringing and culture. If I were you, I would focus on next job and keep positive thoughts, Karma will take care of rest.
I hope Karma is a nasty warlock to “the rest”. I’m tired of being tired 😪 I do deserve better 😤
I understand the frustration, I have faced work situations like this before. I can tell you that so far my success has been the tightest slap on the people who did not believe in me. I have passed all of these kind of toxic people in terms of designation and salary at this point. Rather than investing my time and effort in making them pay back, I use it on my work and getting far ahead of these kind of toxic folks.
Sue them, you could get heavy pay.
Not worth it, move on. The high road is the best road. Don't spend mental energy on that stuff
You’re right…. But eff… I get sick of turning the other cheek
Make a diss song for them. If you need inspiration mnm is there 🤣
You know what, this is my favorite advice. #momsspaghetti
I'm from Caucasus and I find your post microagressive
