    Re: Nice Planet 14: You People Make Me Sick

    I would have said something. But that’s just me. I don’t have a filter in that regard. I know it’s a flaw in some respects, but I’m ok with it.

    Would they afforded you the same courtesy?

      Last time I was with relatives (a couple cousins) disparaging a gay I felt the need to chime in with a, "He still is your brother."

          One of my bro's in-laws is of the herp-a-derp variety when it comes to people of different race and/or different sexual orientation. A real Trumper. When he spouts off on something, we change the subject as fast as we can, as there is zero reasoning with him. He usually gets the hint. Same with my uber-uber-off-the-wall-lefty dad (he makes some liberals here look like Trumpers).

          Edit: agree with burd, it's not a flaw.
          Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

              No, no, no. True convo:

              Me: There is no gray area anymore. It's either THIS or THAT. It's horrible.
              Dad: Only Republicans think that. Not the Democrats. (said without a HINT of hypocrisy)

                    Corps can only do so much training. They can only take action on the actual employee if the employee does something like this.

                    I just went through a mandatory corporate wide sex harassment workshop. I got a perfect score, but that doesn't prevent me from harassment in the future, you know?

                      If your company seems to have wide spread sexual harassment issues after the training then the company themselves is the problem. The "few bad apples" crap almost never turns out to be true. What about the company is emboldening the behavior?

                      What are the chances this person has only ever done something racist one time on the job. (unless he is new) How do people around him act when he does it? Hell why didnt the person who made the drink do something about it when he/she read the name? The culture itself is the problem.

                      Training is CYA stuff, if you want to fix the problem you get rid of the bad apples and punish anyone who in any way enables them. Period. End of Story.

                        My company has zero issues, from what I know. The training was a CYA. And yes, get rid of the bad apples. My point is, the bad apples can go through the motions of training, but until they do something bad, you don't really know who they are.

                          I knew a guy we all called "Beaner". His given name was Bernard. In that case, it's fine.

                          Now if the counter attendant thought they were being funny ... not so much.

                                And my point is if all you are doing is getting rid of the bad apples you arent doing enough and you arent fixing the problem.
