So yesterday I checked my white co worker (long read)

[Lavish]

So I gotta new job a few months ago. Its a good job with alot of potential so im trying to put my best foot fwd and be active and shyt as im on contract and want to get permanent. The pay is

My department is like 200 deep and this place is big on all that team work bullshyt. im usually the guy who doesnt want to participate in shyt but this time because its a good job im trying to be more invovled

So one of my co workers, lets call her Becky, comes up with an idea for all of us to dress up for halloween shes brainstorming ideas and decides we all dress up as marvel comics. So she aske me to look up the marvel characters on my computer cuz none of us know any of that shyt...so I pull it up and we all looking.now this other cac employee, lets call him whitey joins in the discussion. And as we all looking hes like "we gotta find you a BLACK marvel comic " me and Becky both looked at eachother like took me aminute to process what whitey said..so becky was like "does it matter? Its just a costume?!!!??!!" Whitey goes "what? Its not authentic, are there any black marvel comics!" Im like you serious breh? And i just shook my head...he walks away and becky and i are still looking like

She leaves

Now im in my office getting heated...not because of the comics but because dude is seeing color over some bullshyt halloween costume...which wouldnt of been more then a hand drawn superman logo on a white T IF THAT. Foh i just want my stripes in the company.

so a few hours go by and im hearing him joking with co workers and laughing and im getting heated so after work i went over to his desk and went off on whitey. Told him i wasnt feeling that comment and how you seeing color over this shyt...he tried to apologize and shake my hand but he had one of those type faces so i pulled my hand back and was like im not playin man , im dead serious...hes like ok ok.im like nah man, hes like it was just a joke, and im like it wasnt funny and me and becky both know u was serious...so anyway he apologized again and i just walked out. Not sure if anyone saw this confrontation but i dont care. I wasnt feeling that comment and i had to say something.

So today i go into work and hes hanging over beckys desk so i know he was talkin about it...soon as i sit down he comes over and is like can we talk...so i go with him and dude gave me a real apology and was like he went home feeling like shyt about what he said..dude looked shook and sad at the same time..so we talked and i explained it woulf be equivalent to you telling Becky (whose on the fat side) that you gotta find her some fat person to dress up as....anyway we dapped it up he apologized and i accepted it..but i still dont really fukk with him cuz i know his type..dude is still laughing at something one of my african comworkers said minths ago..and he mimics the accent and shyt....fukk him

But now the issue is, im sure people looking at me like the angry black guy...smh

shyt reminds ke of those hood pranks....you fukk wit a nikka..he gets heated...now you all "its just a prank its just a prank" and we looking like savages

You were the angry black guy before you even confronted dude. Don't worry about that. You will always be the angry black guy no matter what you do unless you're shucking and jiving.

I woulda left it the way it was. when he came up to the desk the day after and asked to talk, you shoulda said "nah, I'm good" or some shyt and killed it there.

What's that got to do with anything?

He tried to bait you into overreacting and he succeeded. Are you that fragile? Best believe that he already told everyone about how you confronted and intimidated him. And there's nothing you can do now because he has the defense that at worst he committed a social faux pas.
If you were smart you would have made a play for sympathy using that "hostile work environment" and subtly accusing him of racism, especially since you had Becky as a witness.

Step your politicking game up.
