I worked with a woman who used the 'n' word and mocked a woman with an accent when she would use the intercom. I said something to her every time but she appeared to not be smart enough to get it because she made these comments in front of me several times. I probably should have reported her to the front office but it's unlikely they would have done anything.
 

The Paradoxical Commandments:
People are illogical, unreasonable & self-centered. Love them anyway.
If you do good, you'll be accused of an ulterior motive. Do good anyway.
If you are successful, you will win false friends. Succeed anyway.
The good you do today, will be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
Honesty & frankness make you vulnerable. Be honest & frank anyway.
Big ideas can be shot down by small minds. Think big anyway.
People like underdogs but follow top dogs. Fight for the underdog anyway.
The years of building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway.
Helping those who need help can get you attacked. Help anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and get a kicking. Give your best anyway.
Anyway, by Kent M. Keith.

You can't imagine how happy i am to see someone post these with proper attribution. i actually have them posted on my homepage. i have the site bookmarked. All too often people will cite a line or two that Mother Teresa lifted, added her own spin to ('It was never about you and them but between you and God') and had painted on a wall of her facility in India. Mr. Keith was gracious about it. But it has always bugged me.

Good thread. 4 days a week I practice Jiu Jitsu to help heal my brain, 5AM start. What could more positive than getting choked out by a pal first thing? Well, choking out your pal is slightly better I suppose. Positive energy only allowed inside, once in awhile a fart.

I thought we were long past that in the workplace, or most any places. I know people in Louisiana and Florida who still use it, they are all pretty clearly what I call white trash, still not an excuse.

Growing up where I did the word was commonly used by most of my friends. My parents didn't allow it and beat pretty hard on us not to use it. Glad they did, makes it easier for me not to use today...
