Slave mentality

In the USA, your boss will be the first person to tell you good morning when you come to the office

You're very lucky i wasn't your boss, i would have beat the living daylights out of your brain and still fire you for being a fool

Take it easy! Whats the anger for?

Yes! You did everything wrong! Get rid of your slave mentality!!

Leave your yoruba culture out of this. angry

Really? Which culture will he now adopt.What will then be his point of reference-in terms of behaviour?...His boss has asked to be approached differently,..that he should do, not expunge is entire cutural etiquette.

Just resumed my new office last week o.

My first time of working with White man sa (Lebanese) , The man is free and humble in fact everybody loves him, among other Lebanese my Boss is jovial, free and hardworking man.

He has worked in 5 African countries so he understands Africa and her culture very well.

The real story....

I resumed very early this morning and I decided to wait in front of office before I start today's activities when I saw my boss coming down from his Truck carrying his bag , as a young Yoruba man that comes from good background ..lol So I ran to him and say Good morning sir (bend my head) and I stretch my hand to collect his bag.

The man who has never disrespect me like that before shouted on me!!

Who owns the bag? he asked

repeat!!!! who owns the bag moscobabs?

Me: You sir!!!! I replied..

if it's me "why should u collect it from me?

Me: I just wanted to help u sir.

Y? ..... I couldn't respond .

I say why? ...meet me in office now!!!! he commanded .

We entered his office and he sat me down

moscobabs, You were employed as so so so in this company not to carry bag, the bag belongs to me and I must carry it, also you always bend whenever you greet me...please its not necessary, in fact its not official, I just opportune to be your boss, you are married as I , You are graduate although you are younger than me but you have to attach respect to yourself.

I was like " ki la gbe, ki la ju" but I replied him by saying ....

Sir, I am african we have cultures and Traditions and parts of these is what I did, We respect our elders and seniors that's why we bend or prostrate while greeting and we do help them carry their loads even if we carry ours too.

And he responded with smiles...No problem But when next you greet me in such an embarrassing way or try to collect my bag I won't think twice before I sack you!!!

I beg o Is anything wrong in what I did?

Is there any other reason for his reaction?

The man just dey look me somehow since morning

African Manners = Slave
Throw off your chains and live life freely. Respect yourself and others will show you respect in return. The African mindset is what led to enslavement of our own people throughout the world. Rise up and realize that what you call culture is what is holding you back from progress.

you should never try such thing again, it's a sign of slavery. it annoys me when people greet with that gesture. we are in modern age for Christ sake. do not repeat it, I said DO NOT repeat it or I will fire you myself. lol

shocked what is this?


pink o, red o ...fact is race is not by skin tone.

a white man doesn't mean white skin like snow. .. neither does black man mean black like charcoal. to you Chinese and europeans are all the same I guess undecided

Nigerians and ignorance..smh




Are you looking for attention? If not you would have been better able to channel what apparently few mental resources you have into realizing that the point of my post was to indicate exactly what you have said in the bolded, although you fail to realize the implication of it. Which is that the term "white" is a misnomer. The appropriate term is caucasian.

In my first line, i said the classification is arbitray, showing that of course i know what white is meant to refer to, but no, you a dunce and uneducated riff raff, rushed through without comprehending what i was driving at.

You are not even aware that addressing people by their "color" is frowned upon, yet you feel the need to aggressively insult the person who can enlighten you?

You cannot hold a candle to me in terms of anything so next time you see this moniker and you feel inclined to express yourself, do youreslf a favor and keep on steppin'!

Edit:

I just did a google search which shows that in societies such as the US, arabs are considered white.

"Under the U.S. Census definition and U.S. federal agency, individuals with ancestry from North Africa are considered white. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission regulations also explicitly define white as "original peoples of Europe, North Africa, or the Middle East."[51]
Most North Africans in the U.S. are of native North African origin, including Berbers, Copts, Arabs, Arab-Berbers and Egyptians. They are among the more numerous Arab American groups."

Please, please, and please...respect yourself

What state are you from ??

****

I just accessed your level ****when you called a Lebanese man a 'white man"

You might as well call Chinese people white or Call Egyptians (Africans) white because their skin color is white

Secondly, why would you wanna carry someone's bag ??

Were you employed to carry bags ??

****

When i went to South Africa with my business partners, one elderly woman came to serve us in the hotel, she was kneeling down to serve us, mean, i got so angry and bitter that i called the hotel owner and gave him the hardest drilling of his life, why would you make our women your Slave ??


I think you should be fired and no company should hire you

Don't mind him; to greet some of this boss ladies and oga's dey pepper me for body at times. In fact, i don't like greeting them as greeting them serves as an avenue for them to belittle you and tell you through body language your proper place. The most painful ones are the women, you will greet them, they will just look at you as if you are not there, ignore the greeting and keep walking on that their Jezebel pointed heels.
See, na dem sabi o, i won't disrespect anyone but i won' t also give anyone the privilege of rubbing dirt on my self esteem; no way. I hate slave mentality and i hate seeing a white man too acting funny beside me as if he is an alien. We are all equal before God and special.

look at this iidiot, you want to hurl words? . undecided after schooling him a little he got motivated to go do research. . at least you have taken time to learn a few things thanks to me for motivating you towards what your dull family and friends never impacted on you

unlike you (being a slowpoke and all)I don't need to run to Google ever so often as I encounter a new person. ..I know for a fact that arabs arent treated as white or nearly as ethnically "white" as Latinos who have their own recognized classification

the reason arabs don't have their own classification is due to their relative low numbers in the USA. ..
socially what Arab considers himself white?
Latinos are racially white yet in the USA they have their own class, if you weren't a complete dunce(ironic how you called me the dunce) you would have realized that Laws tend to not recognize certain groups due to their perceived insignificant numbers.. as it is, the numbers of people from the middle east migrating to the US is increasing, not long now the government will recognize and classify Them separately. ..the common people on the street and at daily activities already do


can you imagine this guy with a menial knowledge of anthropology and sociology acting all Buffy grin grin grin grin



P.S I really don't get why we are talking about arabs here undecided. . you probably think Lebanese are your typical example of arabs cheesy cheesy cheesy
