This dude who kept on insisting to write Sept 27 on decks rather than 27 Sept and when I asked him why he said because we are not in India
He would take the entire team to a steak house almost every night even though he knew I was a vegetarian
He would regularly make fun of India, China and make jokes about it when I was struggling with my H1B situation
List goes on...
What’s your story?
I told my colleague we can take this out side very calmly after he continued with racial slurs. I wasn't even cool with the dude. He was insulting other desi members until I got in his face during happy hour
@op I get your point. My take is he is not a racist he just doesn’t get your struggle and why would he, he was born and raise in the US. Let me give you a bad news, you’ll find more and more people in your career who will try to harm you because you’re not like them ( Indians, Pakistanis, Chinese all included). You cannot escape them but just be ensured nothing is going to last for ever, stay calm and let it go. I have learnt it the hard way ( something involving a partner going after me )
We're all racist. Let it go

Everyone feels discriminated against. Not trivializing the issue, but we all need greater restraint, introspection, and tolerance.
Do not be racist. Do not tolerate racism. Give it back.
Report his sorry ass! Do not tolerate this shot!
^ you’ll hear this so many times, “pick your battles” . I really would like to do what you suggested but how many people would you report ? Not asking to be Gandhi but wait till the right moment nothing lasts for ever :)
