You Can't Make This Up: Black Man Reports Racial Discrimination at Work to His Boss, Somehow Gets Arrested for His Trouble
Much like many of you reading this, Michael Fesser is black.
Being black, our experiences in the workplace tend to differ from our unseasoned counterparts. Do Garrett and Zoey have to put up with being called racial slurs by their coworkers? Probably not, but Fesser told his boss that he did.
Because he’s black.
His boss, Eric Benson, owner of A&B Towing, then hit up his boy Terry Timeus—who just so happens to be a police chief—and instead of informing him of Fesser’s allegations, Benson persuaded him to look into whether or not their token negro was stealing from the company. Because what better way to avoid a potential racial discrimination lawsuit?
(Why did this happen? Because he’s black? I dunno.)
