Racism in the work envroment

[Big_Tera]

Just the other day I had some incident with a racist boss who made some snide remarks. 

I wont go into detail but it was some nasty racist stuff. 

How to deal with these racist bosses?

p.s on a sidenote most of the racism I have dealt with has been in the voluntary work sector. Where bosses can get away with alot of racist abuse as the volunteer has little rights. 

To go in breif details this female manager has done similar things to other asian workers. I felt like having a real go at her to give her a taste of her own medicine. I am still actually thinking of doing this. But then I thought as a man I should not do this to a woman. But maybe I should as this is the only way she will learn.

You are right, don't have a go at her but have you tried sitting down with her and talk? Why not record it and report it to someone higher than her that actually respects all employee's? 

(sorry if what I said sounds stupid I am still in uni lol)

yeah seems weird he seems to have had racism problems with two different managers or the same one but they changed genders? I'm confused too

Yes I did start this debate before. Let me give a brief overview. 

I work part time and have a day or two free in the week.SoI decided to give my free time and work for a local charity shop in my area for 1 day a week.

But as soon as I started working their I realised there was hostility towards Asian people. The managers were constantly yelling at staff and often making offensive comments. ie 'do you not speak english' at foreign born asian staff in a derogotary way. 

When I walked in the room this particular racist manager. remarked 'whats that funny smell?'

That was the last straw and I handed in my resignation. I could have at that point had a go at these people and told them to learn some manners and be greatful for the hardworking staff who are working for free. 

But I just made up some excuse that I did not have the time anymore to work there. I then walked off in a non aggresive way. only to be told by the racist manager that I was not someone they were looking for. I havent got time to go into details. but Im fuming at the moment.

Not so big anymore? ? Should have confronted them at least when you quit. Instead you got insulted one last time as you meekly left.
