Today, I was fired for "blatant, inexcusable racism". My boss had asked me which website background I preferred for our company, and I said that white backgrounds are usually best. He thinks that I believe in white supremacy, and that's bad for the company's image. FML

Does your boss think "a stab in the dark" is insulting gay people as well?

Some people just try to find any excuse to shout racism, even when it's totally ridiculous. Sorry that you had to associate with one of them OP

Should have replied with "What color is the wall?" Any color they say, just start accusing them of being racist.

Hey if he didn't want your opinion he shouldn't have asked.

I feel like people like that are actually closet racists who either project their racism onto other people or or trying to look extra-not racist by claiming everyone else is racist.

I suspect that your boss wanted to fire you, and simply used that as a (bad) excuse.

**** that stupid shit, be glad you're out of there OP. People make it seem like if you are so much as proud to be white, you have the blood of slaves on your hands.
