Lawrenceburg, IN asked in Employment Discrimination and Employment Law for Indiana

Q: in an incident at work where derogatory, degrading, racist, micro-aggressions, and harassment took place. Case? Yes or N

My manager made the comment referring to my race, my height in front of the team, in an offensive, hurtful, degrading, humiliating fashion and because of it being escalated to HR, he was "suspended" pending an investigation and now has been removed from the company, had previous write ups for other offenses dating back years since he was with Penn Entertainment (20 years). 

So I resent the fact that they've allowed him to remain a problem fro people that have come and gone because of his "lack of people skills and his offensive nature.. and that this time it’s racial harassment, bullying, rumoring and micro-aggressive in nature.., that I'm ultimately going to have to resign and lose my ability to make a living while i find a more suitable place to work and where I can feel confortable while I try to fix my mind and my state of being (psychologically and emotionally) , on my time, my tab.
