If you keep quiet and respectful, you’re invisible and ignored. If you stand up for yourself, your seen as threatening, and angry
It’s a no win situation.
The only way to win is to build more black run companies and non profits

I got a 5% raise and my full bonus.Is it just me?
I really got fukked over on my performance review this year and it will probably cost me about 30k after tax due to being given a lower bonus.
As a black person I always knew id never fit in with these white/asian folks and that they will always look for the simplest reason to fukk you over or cut you loose. But i am seeing it now more than ever.
The thing is it isnt just me. It seems like a lot of black ppl i know are struggling big time lately with being respected or rewarded at work across different fields

Plumbing/hvac. Started as an apprentice, got licensed, bought a truck.What do you do, how you get started/grow?
That’s the keyMan in my last job soon as I walked in, I saw the token, effimate, gay types (at least 2-3 white guys) in the office sizing me up.
Knew I had to be proactive, introduced myself to em, they quickly warmed up to me.
Im very careful to make sure I have no enemies among the women and gays in the workplace - those are the types who will poison HR against you. It is what it is
Don’t ever do that.How has holding their feet to the fire worked for you guys? Have you ever fielded offers from other companies and threatened to leave to see at least if they’ll match?
Find a job with a better culture. Plenty of workplaces that value diversity. Or make the switch to government
Finished my first week of HVAC work installed a vent hood on my own@CBalla come look at this shyt
It's not just corporate. It's everywhere. It's the same in the blue collar world. Black employees get paid less than white employees and get smaller raises than white employees. Only Mexicans get paid less but they can hold their own nutsIs it just me?

The life I strive forI just received the most glowing performance review in my career while simultaneously spending the most time home playing video games and getting my dikk sucked.
You just gotta figure out how to play the game. Gotta look like you doing the most and going above and beyond without actually doing shyt. I’m playing the travel game now, so I’m living on the company dime a week or two out the month. Travel day on Monday, actually work Tuesday and Wednesday, travel home Thursday afternoon, then stay home and check email on Friday. Can’t beat it.
