Im not saying that it isnt something that I might not take on board, just that Im surprised by some people's views.
People make fat jokes at my expense also, and I suppose their are times when Im in a bad mood that it does piss me off, but I know I have to take it cos I give people a lot of shit back.
A lot of the banter in the office isnt based on differences.
I also draw cartoons of me executing one of my co-workers through Magneto/Master of Magnetism style powers sometimes (ie - he attacks me - but he's wearing a suit of armour! - I levitate him and drop him into the crocodile enclosure at the zoo), frequent comments about people's mum/sister/etc...
Like I said, I understand its childish and so does everyone else who takes part, its just a way of relieving stress and pressure when youre working in a tough job.
