Not sad, more or less just disappointed a bit. That said I always keep a hefty warchest so cash isn't an issue even in this dire job market in michigan. The club luckily is doing great and if everything went crazy we always have at least a business as collateral.
If things go along the current path though, I should be starting a new position back in the writing field by second week November.
Racism in the work place is something I've delt with at other places, and honestly its been tolerable these last couple of years because I was not under the racist. People are always not going to like someone for some reason or another, so thats just a life lesson i learned a long time ago. The guy here would make a remark here or there, and then it would be reported and then he'd settle down. However, i have hit my limit when i again find myself in human resources and she tells me her arms or tied and that my new boss "meant nothing by it".
Yesterday I began the process for an harrassment and discrimination suit because of my lack of human resources ability to do anything. In my findings I discovered this isn't the first suit. Apparently one of the former presidents, a jewish woman, also sued for racial discrimination but settled.
