UGGGH!!! Rant time begins now!
I work in an office in small town midwestern America. and I am so damn fed up with some of the quirky oddities of white people. I’m black and I am aware that my ethnic group has there own crap that pisses me off but i’m not talking about me or them i’m talking about YOU, if the shoe fits!
I’m noticing that a lot of our white customers first of all come in the place as if they own it, no humility whatsoever, and to boot they want to get free or near free. and they expect you to be ok with that. they seem to live under the philosophy “you scratch my back and i’ll scratch yours “,whereas mine is you pay full price for that or it stays in the store.
Another thing is… they are loud and noisy. I attribute this to the white cultures near worship of the quality of being outgoing. This same outgoingness is what caused one woman to come in and in the process of ordering her product, proceeded to talk somuch and loudly (mostly bragging about her kids and her education etc. etc.),that I wanted to scream LADY PLEASE SHUT UP I CAN BARELY HEAR MY OWN THOUGHTS. What is with that ,and it’s not the first time i’ve seen this either and it’s not just the women. You don’t automatically have the floor when you enter a room and not everyone wants to our should be expected to hang on your every word, so try leaving some air in the room so the rest of us can breathe too and quiet the fuck down for a few minutes you might learn something new.
O.K I feel a little better now at least until the next full of themselves white person comes on the scence with their large W across their chest and gets in my space in an attempt to be outgoing.
I want to part with one word BOUNDARIES. They’re not just for minorities anymore.
Am I alone in my observations!? you are welcome to respond.
And by the way I realize this only applies to SOME white people others are doing o.k.
