Question for any indigenous people out there. My company is seeking to create employee resource groups and would like to use the word tribes to use them, as it is an alliteration to our company name, but also the definition means a group of people from the same community/culture. I was wondering though if this might be considered offensive to anyone, as that is the complete opposite of our intent. Would love your thoughts on this?

If y’all know, I’ve had ongoing issues with my boss about communication. Mainly that I communicate, he doesn’t, then when I stop he gets pissed I stopped. Well, I’ve been battling a cold over the king weekend and today woke up to Pink eye. Didn’t want to spread it so I texted in our office text chat I would be staying home until I was better. No response. Just got an email he is filing as a memo about my pattern of no communication to management about my office presence. What the hell?
