You know what, I try to get along with everybody, I don't believe you should judge a book by it's cover,

Except when you can tell people are bitchy just by looking in their eyes? hmmm

lol Hey you can see kindness in a person eyes, why not bitchiness smile

Not always though. Depends on whether you know the person. Although the eyes CAN tell you something (as they say, they are "the windows to the soul"), eyes can also be deceptive. Ever heard the song "Back Stabbers? "Smiling Faces"? Take heed, young Lisa, take heed. biggrin

This is so true. Some people have an unusal ability to hide their true feelings. I see it done ever single day.

They look down on me, just because I'm black and clean up after their messy kids. YOu know the prejudice doesn't even get to me, because I know that people are ignorant and no matter how hard you try to open their mind people will just remain that way out of stubborness, but the thing that really makes me red mad is the fact they try to be nice in front of your face, mean while you know they're are calling you nigga's and slaves behind your back... disbelief You know these people aren't even white, they're jewish. Jewish folks get the same prejudice from white fols as black folkes do, so I don't see where the hell all this anomitsy is coming from. YOu know I don't even mad anymore, cuz I think it's a damn shame how some people still want to believe they are better then somebody else based off the color of their skin and how much money they make, it just don't make damn sense... stupid people... who's with me on this mad

Hey! I will answer ppls comments after I have answered this. Lisa, I do really really like you, you have helpd me in times of need and I will never forget that, but have you strayed from your comment here saying that all rich people are bad, inconsiderate, selfish, cruel? Are you not just judging your own experiences??

Not all "rich" are mean, stupid or racist.. You are giving an example of the shallow people you work with...unfortunate as though it is, but please do not stereotype or catagorise certain people into your own "groups" otherwise there is no hope in this world...Alot of rich people have everything but they do not have happiness, they are very charitable and some want to lead "normal lives where they can be free but are trappped in their own family cliche.


Please do not stereotype..I know you, or enogh about you that you do not feel 100% this way, just venting anger, which I truly understand, but there are two sides to each story...


heart and peace

Lisa, the world is fucked up hug ...just go with what you believe, but never put people into catagories...that could be your biggest mistake..take each induividual as they come...this "group" may seem intimidating, but not necessarily individuallty...see each persona s trheir own, talk and learn from them..if you do not have that as a Christian..where does your faith lie??? Talk to me as you have done to me...I hope all will turn out good! :PRAY:

Hate and bigotry are found among both rich and poor. Although one should expect otherwise, wealth is no guarantee of decency, and poverty offers no assurance of humility.

Being scrutinized for driving through the "rich part of town" must be something akin to what I experienced when I drove through west Oakland on a recent Saturday night. After stopping for gasoline on Macarthur Blvd, I was verbally abused, mocked and threatened. Was it because I was white? Or was it the perception that I was "rich?" Does it matter to those who abused me that I am devoted to Oakland, that I chose to serve the community and start my business there?

No, what matters is that I realize that those who abused me do not represent Oakland, and I don't hate them for their ignorance, prejudices, and apparent poverty.

dl, don't base your opinion of the people that you work for based on what their daughter said, or at least don't dislike her completely, she is just repeating what she has learned. Keep in mind that she may have developed this thinking from friends parents, not hers! Just take how they treat you at face value. Iwork for rich people and they sometimes forget to teach their children manners until its too late, its like they don't really do anything about their children's behavior until it causes them embarrassment or danger to their children(sometimes not even then)

but I did use to always get confused, are Jewish people a race or religion?


I don't know if you're being serious but IT'S A RELIGION


Judaism can be both a religion and an ethnicity...

Obviously some people aren't born into it and convert to Judaism and they are of course Jews too, by religion... but there are of course also Jews that may be ethnically Jewish, but may reject or not practise the Jewish religion, they are still considered to be Jews, just not by faith...

However being Jewish can incorporate both ethnicity and religion... in general, it really isn't JUST exclusively a religion, or JUST exclusively an ethnicity... it just isn't black or white like that... I guess it depends on your frame of reference...

omg
I would look for another job. I just can't believe a whole city area is like that.

This kind a things always pisses me off and I'm afraid I can't help but let people feel that. The positive result is that I have mostly clients that I like.

(btw do they litterally talk that way behind your back?)
