So. I got accused of being racist today at work because I asked to check someone's bag and she happened to be Asian. The white middle aged guy with her got all huffy and accused me of only asking her because she's Asian. Mind you, my work has been cracking down on bag checks and we literally have to check ALL bags except handbags because a lot of people have been stealing recently. The colour of someone's skin or the way they look has never affected the way I've treated anyone before in my entire LIFE and I got so upset that he assumed I was doing it based on something like that! I was like "Um actually I've been checking everyone's bag" and he's like "Or did you just check hers because she's Asian?" Like wtf?? Why would her ethnicity make a difference to me checking her bag?? xD Like huh? I had been checking everyone I could because otherwise I legitimately get pulled up for it and even though I told him that, he just kept persisting and UUGGHHH the whole thing was extremely unpleasant and I nearly cried afterwards because I felt so judged and violated in a way. Like he was attacking my dignity and character even though he has no idea who I even am. xD Some people are just so awful! I don't get it! How can you treat someone like that? O_o I always try my hardest to be so polite to everyone I greet and then you get people like him, who probably just try to pick fights with anyone. I was so mad afterwards. xD He was like "I'm gonna come in next time and see if you're checking everyone's bag." WTF??!?! So creepy! Dx
