[QUOTE="22.34life, post: 1946815, member: 23722"] I have not posted here in a long time but this thread caught my eye.Not because i think the content of the question is interesting but i think it raises a more underlying problem/question.If i say something offends me does that mean that the company has to take action on it. So if i have a bumper sticker on my car that says hang obama can that be interpreted as racist since obama is black?If an employee has a gay pride sticker on his or her lunch box does that mean they hate all straight people?example,employee in a conversation with another gives his or her opinon about homosexualty and now he has now offended this gay person who they may or may not have known was gay to begin with. Point of fact you could display a flag on your car that said all white people should die and nothing would be done about it.i have heard countless times white racial slurs at work in the breakroom in the work area,written on the bathroom walls which stayed there for weeks or months before being painted over.i myself have been called racial slurs directed at white people right in front of management,no action was taken. Bottom line, anything can be claimed to be offensive in some way to somebody. [/QUOTE]
