Micro aggressions you’ve experienced as a black man in the workplace

[BeeGoinCrazy]

Bruh just last month I had this restaurant job (fukk dikkeys’ BBQ Pit) and this one fat bowser no hairline having ass manager would ALWAYS give me hell because I was new. On my first day we were making sliders and I asked him something hella innocent and he talked to me like I had autism (no diss to those with it). My last day was August 1st. I had cut my finger chopping brisket for some black lady so, I was already not in a good mood. Business was slow as hell that day so, I had to break down the cold food. I didn’t put it where it was supposed to go and he asked me “how do you have night shifts and you don’t know where it goes??” Again in a smart ass tone. I told him, “I’m just trying to do my job” bruh said “why don’t you go home?” I got a number from my coworker (s/o my nikka Campbell) and said bye to one of the employees who always had my back and never returned. I love money but that shyt was NOT worth it.

Older White women staring over there shoulders every 5 seconds you’re waiting behind them at the coffee machine. I’m like, “Susan calm tf down. Staring at me like I’m bout to jump on you or something”

I've just recently noticed that if you get in an elevator with a cac/non black they will make sure that they stand BEHIND you to watch you on some scary shyt...even if its more than one they will all get behind you just pay attention next time..Cacs coughing when you walk past them or come in a room, Cacs cutting you off if you drive foreign...when walking around DTLA cac bytches and non black bytches clutching they purse at the sight of ANY black man even nikkas in suits..I make a effort to clutch my pockets and move far away from them when I see that...ALL WHITE PEOPLE ARE RACIST EVEN THE ONES POSTING HERE LET THEM GET AROUND A BLACK DUDE THEY DONT KNOW THEY WILL DO THE SAME PAT POCKETS CROSS STREET ROUTINE ITS INGRAINED ONLY WAY IF THEY GREW UP IN THE JECTS NOT HOOD BUT THE JECTS

You speak, and a white person immediately begins speaking over you, and starting a whole ass new conversation as if you don’t exist.
