I made a risky joke and now i’m being fired
I don't know what to do
i basically made a joke in front of my boss amongst other colleagues and i said that i'm feeling a little racist today i'm going to go home and watch django
they all stood they awkwardly staring at me which made me super self conscious
i’ve been called into HR and now they're looking to terminate my employment
UPDATE:
I’ve been asked to resign, didn’t get fired technically.
i’m gonna hand in my resignation and look elsewhere for jobs.
my boss said he found it a little funny but he has to show the other boys around that there’s a no tolerance policy for racist jokes
Haha
at least it was funny
What made you want to say that? Do you special needs ? The context is crazy
Hm
.
Assuming you’re not trolling, I can’t imagine any scenario where someone well adjusted thinks that was an appropriate comment
Username does not check out
lmao
Did you still watch Django after, or did that take the fun out of it?
i didn’t watch django i watched 12 years a slave instead
LMFAOOO
I can tell you’re funny
I started to respond to say if the joke were funny it would have helped and realized has to be a troll bc everyone would know who you are. The joke isnt funny and this post is also not funny.
Bye bye, that ends your stint in finance. It's a corporate career, not a frat house - time more of you learned!
Quiet, you virgin
Let's turn that "incoming" back into a "prospect" by getting your offer rescinded 😎
The user has 4 bananas and no comment history, this story is fake
how have u not completed your cfa yet, you’re a third year associate lol
Is this for real or are you just trying to be a troll and waste people’s time?
Sup nIgga
yeah that’s pretty racist
No
A good example (if true) about having a work life and a professional life. Sometimes you dont need to be a the funny guy at work; I've been there.
Was it funny, idk, but definitely stay await from the racist stuff (even if somewhat a grift in this situation).
Funny joke but pretty tame to be “resigned.” I’ve heard worse in my bullpen, given it’s not on the east or west coast.
I don't even know what this means. Do you work in Little Rock or Chattanooga? Lmao
You should have gone out with a bang and used the joke from the Boondock Saints during the HR meeting.
Don't resign. Make them fire you and collect the severance. It's a BS firing.
^ this. +1
No. They could disclose why you were fired down the road.
Better to forgo the severance pay and not have to explain why you left the job
