Honestly bro. It's never going to stop. No matter what your position or pay grade. You gotta learn how to finesse these nikkas. Everybody hates me man. I know it. Lol but everybody fukks with me. I'm charming. I always have what you need and I grease wheels.

You gotta eat that insult. Pretend it never happened and reset. Talk to Pedro as person not as an employee. Find common ground. Like whatever he likes or compliment him on something. Doesn't have to be true it just has to get his punk ass happy to see you.
Pedro? He said it's the white people. You mean Paul.

Does 'I always have what you need and I grease wheels' mean: I take the bullshyt and suck up when necessary, I need my money. ?

What detail do you need to give me advice? Obviously they didn't straight up call me a N word or some shyt like that, just Cacs being disrespectful and talking to you like you are dumb or less than a human.

I don't understand how its so hard for them to know what you're talking about.
:snoop:

Frfr you can talk back to them in the same manner or just ignore that shyt. I personally don't abscribe to that bullshyt philosophy of turning the other cheek to be the bigger man. If someone fukks with you, you need to make it clear that you're not a pishover. There's obviously parameters to consider, (don't go stabbin folks) but ignoring it won't resolve it...especially if you continue to do better at your job and your net $ gets higher.

communication is complex, 'just Cacs being Cacs' means nothing to me since I'm not racist.

Why don't you focus on the two things you CAN control, since it sounds like you can't control them:

1. Be respectful always
This is business. You are black. They will try to fukk you over for the smallest infraction. Your antidote: being respectful and friendly, always.

'Hey! Why don't you drop it over there huh? Second time now!'
'Hey you're totally right, my bad. Will get that done for you now!'

Is it fun? HELL NAH. You'd much rather stomp that bish out to some Chopped & Screwed Chief Keef (does that exist?).
But... here's point two:

2. This is about money.
Remember that. I write something on my hand sometimes 'NEFS'.

No. Emotions. For. Strangers.

I am underpaid.
I am underappreciated.
I am underestimated.

But I tell myself - I do not show emotions for strangers. Not on my way to work with idiots blocking me in public transportation, making my life hard. Not at work where people play politics and favoritism and generally I get treated as if all the hard work I do is worthless, when in fact it is VERY valuable and I'm working my ass off to really contribute.

But No. Emotions. For. Strangers. Why? Because it will fukk up your money.

So until you have a better job, hustle, thing going - stay calm and remember this is about money - show no emotions. Use this board, your friends, ya girl - whoever you go to to release all that anxiety and stress they cause. Because money = freedom and it is what will allow you to build your life.

Focus my brother - flipping ain't worth it. Stay calm af.

It means I identify something someone likes or needs and I consistently provide it.

Pedro is the fictional character I created in my example.

Pedro is rude for many reasons. But let's get to the root of the issue. He probably hates his job and the people he has to deal with. He's assuming Brother Zay is another a$$hole he has to deal with so he's posturing.

Brother Zay He can flex too, but that's impulsive, and will not result in him getting him what he wants from Pedro.

Zay needs to let this cat know he's not the enemy. This can be done with friendly gestures like complimenting Pedro or getting to know him on a personal level.

If Zay does it consistently Pedro will stop posturing because he will know Zay isn't the enemy.

And hell yeah I need my money!

If Zay plays his cards right he could start a his own shyt. Who knows, Pedro could be a very valuable ally in the future.

Why is the shipper/receiver giving you attitude? You're doing them a service.

Not to brag, but do you think its out of the question for some middle aged cacs to feel some type of way about a 21 year old black kid making(probably double) the amount of money that they make, legally?
