I see we're still not going to talk about the real issue here, but fine, I'll play along.

First, you went back and edited the portion of your post where you implied that Ace and I were calling you names. I'm sure I can get an admin to dig it up if needed, but I think I'm being petty enough by just pointing it out.

I read all of your posts. I even went back and reread them after you edited them. And it wasn't until #47 that the truth came out. Your immediate bosses don't want to get caught up in a petty squabble. Their bosses don't either. The woman in question, in my opinion, was most likely offended when you handed out invitations at work and she didn't get one, then when she did, it was with a backhanded apology and statement that made it seem like you didn't want her there. You fueled the fire when you told her that it's a pagan wedding. In the minds of the two 70ish year-old black women that I just talked about about the subject, pagan = devil worshiper. Both of the women in my office are closeminded on the subject, and I expect the woman in yours is too. So she doesn't like you now because you were rude and worship some god that goes against everything she's ever been taught.

And since she doesn't like you, she's not going to do you favors. When you complain, no boss wants to get involved in that kind of disagreement. She's not harrassing you or discriminating against you - she just doesn't like you, so she's being difficult. And you know what, I still don't care. She's your problem - not mine. You deal with her.

What I'm really confused about is why you brought up my job. Even with your cryptic explanation, I don't get it. Before I had this job, I wouldn't have cared about someone who doesn't like you. I think I'm being consistent in my lack of caring here, and I'll even go so far as to state that I really don't care what anyone outside of TFP cares about any one member. I'm not singling you out - I simply just don't care how popular any one member is with their coworkers. But maybe you want to feel special; fine, I like you Pan. Sometimes you come off as a ranting lunatic, especially when we're talking about immigration or race, but I generally find you amusing enough to read most of what you post, which is the highest praise I'm capable of giving right now.

And you're being called a devil worshipper because someone thinks you're a devil worshipper. That should be your motivation to go talk to her and smooth out the rough patch as well as educate her on what you really believe. Me? I just think you're some

I still don't see any discrimination against you beyond someone not wanting to be in the same room with you, but that seems to be based more on your personality and beliefs than the color of your skin. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. If you tried to take this to court with only the evidence presented here, you'd probably find it impossible to get even the most desperate ambulance chaser to take it.
