Things My White Boss Says: Burritos, Beer, And Babies
We all have them: the supervisor/boss who doesn’t really know much about Latinos or our culture, and as a result says dumb things that border on the offensive. Most of them are well-meaning, others not so much. But they all have one thing in common, their ignorance. Below are their stories, submitted by you.
I work in IT and my direct supervisor is this “good ol’ boy” from Mississippi. Yeah, someone from the great state of Mississipi that knows a thing or two about computers. Hard to believe. Anyway, the other day he walked in with a Chipotle bag and stopped by my cubicle to brag about the fact that he was eating “my people’s food.” Crazy, right? It gets better. After talking to me about how he just loved that cute Mexican girl working behind the counter (“if she’s an illegal, I’d happily help her get her green card.”) he drops the following bombshell on me: “Hey, are they called burritos because they used to be made with donkey meat.” Um, WTF?

Two months ago my wife gave birth to our first born child. I took a week off from work when our daughter was born. When I came back, there was a six pack of Corona beers waiting for me on my desk with a card that said “One for each kid!” I’m not even Mexican.

Don’t think this only happens to Latinos. I’m the only white guy in my office and, just this morning, I was asked why Klan members wear hoods.
Well…. why DO they wear hoods?
Keep their heads warm.
I’m an Afro-Cuban so I confuse the hell out of White Americans. Anyway, I have been asked how much do I like burritos and churros. I’m not Mexican! Or when Black Americans say I’m ashamed of being “Black” which is absurd as my Spanish, food and music Is African influenced *smh*
i was the 1st hispanic and female! acct exec for my sales mgr in omaha!…he was so proud of his red hot chili pepper..yes, he used the term to me and to whoever would listen….
After giving a training class to the people who would replace her and her dept. co-workers, in a deep Southern State, the vice president of the company in that state, pleased with the job done, invited my friend to her home for dinner, She warned my Puerto Rican friend that her husband was a REAL red neck!
During dinner he looked at her up and down as if studying her, physically she could pass as White, no accent, and her first name is anglo! After a while he turned to her and said,
“What part of Mexico are you from?”
My friend, said, “I am not Mexican, I am Puerto Rican”
He repeated,
Again, what part of Mexico are you from and I do not like Mexicans, but I could stand you for a while!!”
To racist we are all Mexicans!!!
