How do you deal with it?
When I think about my time in corporate I think about the racism and microagressions. I think about how I am expected to perform and I am not trained. I’m not sure I can continue to cope. I’m 29 and for so long I have been afraid to speak up because I know they’d just deny it. What is the point? How am I meant to establish myself and build a life when it seems almost impossible

Do you feel like other employees at your company get more training than you do? I have felt undertrained for some time in my role but it seems to be a more universal problem for the company I'm at. Just curious how they are specifically leaving you hanging and whether or not others would say the same?

I only ever met one black woman who was ready to have an open and honest conversation about the reality of things and she is based in the U.S. The UK is so behind and there’s little solidarity

OP I think over the years I have just gotten used to it which is really sad to say. If I do sit and think about it I tend to get depressed and upset so I just try not to. I will outwork anyone in the room with me and that is a fact so I focus on how hard I work.

Random question. Sometimes an app or website doesn’t work due to the fact that I’m using a VPN.
