    How should I feel

    I was at work one day, and we weren't making any money. I was doing rounds when I passed a guy who didn't tip me. He was sitting with a new girl, who said she loved my pole tricks. Anyway he didn't tip me like twice, and on the third time I saw her stand up, go off on the guy, and then he handed me a hundred dollars.
    Later in the dressing room she had a hundred dollars too. She goes, "Can you believe that guy? I hate people like that." I asked her what she was talking about. She said dude had called me the "N" word she went off on him, and to keep her from making a bigger scene, he paid her off.

    How the hell should I feel about this?

    I think you should be thankful that she cared enough to even say anything to the guy, and for the fact that she scored the both of you a quick bill. There are always gonna be prejudice assholes out there, but i think after i got the money from him i still would have gotten his ass kicked out.

    By the time the story reached me, he was gone. I am glad that she got us some money. I don't know. I tell this story to other black people, aand they get mad, I tell this story to other people who aren't black, and they all say, "Hell I'll be whatever you want for 100 dollars." Then they laugh. I'm glad I got the money, and I feel indiferent I supose, but am I suposed to? :|

    I think you should be pissed off that the guy actually called you that but you should be thankful that girl stood up for you....Besides the money its just the principle

    You feel however you feel, which is probably a mixed bag. There is no "should" with regard to feelings; they are involuntary. All you have control over is your actions, not your feelings, so hopefully you thanked her and put that $100 to good use. There are assholes everywhere so try not to dwell on this one.

    Yeah, there will be always be assholes out there and the girl did good my telling him off. Don't try to let anyone tell you that it was OK that you called a nigger because at least you got a 100 bucks out of it. I would still be angry, hurt, and shocked that someone would see me that way, no matter what they gave me. It was definately good of her to split the money w/you and cuss the guy out. I've had guys use the n word as a reference to blacks with white dancers and they don't do anything, even when they have mixed kids!!! Damn I'm really sorry this happened to you, but there are still gonna be some racist fucks out there.

    I didnt mean that you should be thankful for the 100 dollars he paid her to shut up. Iknow you were hurt by his comment but you cant change the way a racist feels. So i was just trying to say not to think to much into it because not everyone sees you the way he did.

    I think it's awesome that she stood up for you like that. I've been called "cracker" and whatnot and it didn't bug me too much... But it's probably different for everyone. At least you got $100 out of it. He COULD have just walked out after she went off on him.

    I think its great that she hooked you up with money and stood up for you, I would befriend that one...Not many girls like that--at least in my experience.


    I truely dislike racist remarks (the owner of my club is that way in a BIG BAD way) It makes me sick to hear him spout off that shit and then act all happy when he sees the black guys spending money. He even said, "Those should be chaperoned when they come in here." Right in front of our ONLY black girl. He just looked right through her and stalked into his office. I felt compelled to apologize to her for that shit, and she just looked beat down and was like ...You didn't say it--so whatever. I don't understand how people can just treat others like that and NOT CARE how horrible they make people feel.

    Sorry. Your post made me upset, and it was time to vent.

    I think I'd have some mixed feelings about money that came from someone being a creep behind my back, too, especially if I didn't find out until after the fact. It's got to be hard to reconcile not having had your five seconds with the guy to tell him where he could shove his nasty racist $100... or at least being able to make your own informed decision about whether to accept it. I guess that's the downside of not having to deal with him personally.

    Fuck that guy... I'm pissed off just thinking about it.

    I would be pissed. I would have wanted to know when he was there so I could confront the idiot.

    Ugh I had a customer one night who was smashed. It was this black girls first time on stage a bunch of the girls go 'oh buy her a shot to help her' he goes 'i aint buyin no black bitch a drink' later on he threw a cig pack at her and told her to get over it. Its weird because I really thought he was a great guy until then(he was a regular of mine) ever since then its been kind weird. I really hate racist comments. Hes not really the racist kind but I guess everyone shows sides of themselves when they drink that you would never normally see. He got banned from the club, I fought it so he could come back to at least say sorry. She wouldnt let him, he hasnt been back since.

    I would say a huge thank you to the girl and be damn happy she got you money out of the worlds biggest asshole.

    Lol, that's one of the racist terms for white ppl. But, it can probably only apply to saltines or something... None of those wheat thins.

    I once had a customer who was like that. In Australia. He wore confederate flag cufflinks and talked about 'dem niggers'.

    Let me repeat. A confederate... Australian.

    Just laugh, because idiots are funny.

    ...^^That's hilarious!!
    I hate racists..and they hate me too, so it all balances out.

    But let me tell you something i learned from EXPIRIENCE.. if you let someone's action cause you to give a REACTION, then they are controlling you, and they win. I worked in a call center two years ago, and a girl said something vulgar along those lines to me..so i went out to my car & changed from my Gucci boots to a pair of shit-kickers, stormed back in the building, and beat her DOWN. I felt liberated at the MOMENT..but she ended up getting promoted & i was fired & got a record & served time & NOW I CANT GET A JOB ANYWHERE HALF DECENT.. in hindsight, doing what LillithMorrigan sad, and laughing while saying "what a stupid-dip-shit!" would've made me the bigger man, so to speak.

    Things done in anger generally lead to regret.....But it is very hard to overlook ignorance on that level!!
