Any one else the only black one in their workplace?
I love all my colleagues and we get on well and I've never felt inferior at all but sometimes I just wish there was more diversity.
ALL my colleagues are white and sometimes I forget and start speaking in my "black vernacular" and off course they don't understand. They also don't understand the "black banter".
I just wish there was someone else, my race, I could vibe with 🙁
PS. Almost every job I've been in I've always been the only black one, I live in a small village in the NE.
