Proud if DH this morning

His job involves going into people's homes to carry out maintenance. He is self employed First job this morning he was just starting snd the woman started spouting some pretty foul racism. So he walked out and told her to find someone else to do the job.

Excellent - good for him.

Good. More people need to do this.

Good for him!

Why in God's name do people still think we should listen to shit like that? I'm pleased your husband made his views known
We really haven't come very far have we, so disappointing

bert3400 · 14/07/2021 09:35

Well done to your DH. Definitely a proud moment 😁

Motnight · 14/07/2021 09:37

Well done to your dh!

chocolatesaltyballs22 · 14/07/2021 09:38

Good for him. Why are some people such twats?

WheresMySnackPack · 14/07/2021 09:38

Good for him! I hope they can't find someone half as decent now. Twats.

Disfordarkchocolate · 14/07/2021 09:52

Well done him.

It makes me very sad to think that she does this so easily. A sad reminder of what a lot of people face every day.

starrynight87 · 14/07/2021 09:59

Horrendous, hope he can report them somehow.

HopeHappy · 14/07/2021 10:27

Good for him!

If I'd have been him I'd have been tempted to start the job and then walked out halfway through if it was going to inconvenience her!

If it was aimed at your DH (as opposed to her sharing her ridiculous views to anyone that will listen) I'm sorry he has to experience that.

I truly don't understand some people - what the fuck has anyone's skin colour or place of birth or culture or religion got to do with anything?!

Theworldisfullofgs · 14/07/2021 10:28

Brilliant. We all need to do this.

MeanMrMustardSeed · 14/07/2021 10:31

Well done to your DH! Would he be up for reporting it to the police? We need to see more convictions for this abhorrent behaviour.

trevthecat · 14/07/2021 10:39

Good for him. Absolutely disgusting behaviour

@HopeHappy it wasn't aimed at him, just sharing foul views. He won't report it but she needs the job done for her insurance, there aren't that many to choose from.
