Today, my boss at my new job described a client as "retarded". I corrected him with "mentally disabled". He smirked and replied "Whatever. Just explain things to her real slow. After all, she's 'mentally disabled'. And a woman." I need this job so bad that I'll have to just put up with this asshole. FML

Report it to someone OP, I'm sure that can't be tolerated.

That should not be tolerated at the workplace.

Whether you need the job or not, that is not okay! You need to report him!

That was an excellent display of how to display a sarcastic tone with text. Bravo. May others learn from your example. And that's literally the only good thing I could say about your post. Oh well, can't win them all. I find the unPC crowd hilarious. Talk about oversensitive. Apparently they can't handle someone not jovially laughing at their uncreative use of language :)

I know you have been, but keep your eyes peeled for any other job openings. Good luck. Sorry about the boss...

That's horrible,I have a brother with special needs so hearing people use the word "retarded" is unacceptable.I think that guy is the mental one!

I think I'm more pissed off that he said "and a woman" because that implies that women are all stupid and have the learning capabilities of a mentally disabled person. Not being rude to those who are, because that's wrong, but they do need the time and care to learn things.

I think him might be 'mentally disabled' if you know what I mean

Your boss needs some sensitivity training and a life lesson.

Retarded is an actual medical diagnosis. Just so you know.
