My co-worker, who happens to be black, asked me how I managed to get the “black” holiday off.
I write the schedule and I have to work 6 days this week.
@MidnightRider
You first, assumed that my co-worker is male.
Second, you don’t know me and took my comment way too seriously.
Third, my coworker is BLACK and it literally had nothing to do with race.
@MrsBentoBako People without nexus to a holiday still get the day off, that's my point. I'm too serious? You're upset that I used the wrong gender label which for the purposes of that post was generic. PS My post had nothing to do with "black or white", go reread it; you added the race element.
@MidnightRider
I did not say you were too serious, I said you took my comment too serious. Go reread it.
@MrsBentoBako Tell him it's the same reason everyone gets July 4 off even though they weren't part of the actual signing of the declaration. Maybe your co worker needs to grasp the notion of "national holidays".
