Black professionals talking about code switching at work, and here come white people

[Tribal Outkast]

co signed..

White people complain about shyt they already have.. Lets you know they really don't want you to have shyt..

Kind of like when a breh shows up to work in a nice car and the supervisor says, "looks like we're paying you too much".

Why are they like this?!? I hate that with a passion man smh. Always saying it acting like it’s a joke.. Nah bruh you mean that shyt

Hell yeah they mean that shyt..

breh got a raggedy piece of shyt breaking down and missing work, they ready to fire a mfer.. But same breh get a dependable car to get to work, now they say he getting paid too much..

Then they go stupid and don't understand why a nikka came into the warehouse and shot that mfer up..

After centuries of stealing, oppressing, programming and re-writing history desperate to be viewed as the "main characters" of life and these sensitive ass cave people still have that deep inferiority complex of a side character always wanting the spotlight or inclusion whether good or bad. Miserable ass neanderthals.

Funny thing all that bootstrap talk…we are the only ones that have actually had to apply it.

We haven’t been given an inch since stepping on this soil and everything, I mean everything we have now, we fought for it.

fukk them.

Seriously fukk them mayo sandwich eating pos

 

[GhettoTeK]

If it was all black women they wouldn’t have the same energy.

Nah the Becky’s and Karen’s would’ve lost their shyt

 

[SheWantTheD]

Who gives a shyt.

fukk that code switching shyt.

I just be professional at work, plenty of people especially in skype group chats aren't professional.

That code switching shyt don't happen.

If you are code switching so much that you sound white that's your problem.

 

[Treblemaka]

This is what happens when we have what should be closed door conversations in public.

Giving everyone our internal thoughts and feelings only helps them execute better plans to manipulate us.

I’ve worked in a semi professional role for about 20 years now and we were challenging it back then. One of the guys I trained that came in with me and is my best friend right now came in tatted up and wearing them oversized throwback jerseys to work and shyt lol. I remember one day I came in with my old army pt shirt on abd camo pants rolled up to my knees. The manager told me not to wear that again They tried to change the dress code it didn’t work. At my second job in the field, I wore bow ties and all kinds of shyt.. still got treated bad in some situations.., started wearing what I wanted and nothing really changed. We’ve definitely come a long way with behavior in the workplace for real though. That code switching stuff is something else.

Honestly you just sound kinda bummy.

 

[mcellas]

I use to code switch but that shyt gave me a headache, so I stopped nothing has changed.

Internet was better when it was segregated

Can't really name a single thing that wasn't better segregated.

 

[HoldThisL]

Code switching is basically making your non-black people feel more "comfortable" around you in a business setting because we know this country was built on racism and society has a ignorant view of black people.

Moreso we can't appear too dominant or aggressive, we gotta change up our personality and be a bit submissive.

But I'm glad it has been changing in the recent years and I get to be somewhat of myself now

I'm fukking sick of these people.

I mentioned not too long ago in the 6 figures, 6 certs section that on LinkedIn somebody posted a picture of a group of black male Harvard University law school graduates, then here comes all the cacs (mainly cacs but you can guess all the other usual suspects) talking about lack of women, whites, blah blah blah and saying how it's "divisive". Bear in mind, the picture didn't even have "black men" in the title, it just happened to be a group of brothas taking a photo together. As if there literally aren't trillions of photos of white professionals posing together.

They can't even hide their fear and discomfort of black, intelligent professionals on a platform like LinkedIn.

It's all "bootstraps" talk until we actually do it, then it's oh why cause division we are all one race.

use platforms that facilitate racism (and turn back hard won battles 50 years) brehs ..
