YOU KNOW THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS RACISM! JUST IGNORANT PEOPLE!

Like when you are invited to be the guest speaker at a conference and you asked to clean the tables and refill the pics.

Like when you're in the airport and you are told that they more toilet paper in women's restroom.

Like when your boss tells you to call DC and answer the questions of another agency and the caller says he wants to talk to person who work the packages and you answer, that is me.  The person then says I want to speak to the person who signs the letters of approval, and you answer 'tis I.  Then you finally have to admit to your boss that you don't have the right "accent" for the caller (BECAUSE REALLY, THAT'S ALL IT CAN BE).  Then you are sent to meeting any way to be asked to seek against the wall because the table is reserved for the important people.  You comply.  Then one of those high ranking officials realize you're the only one in the DOD with a successful program and ask you to come sit by him for the remainder of the conference. (OF COURSE THE THOUSANDS OF THINGS LIKE THIS HAS HAPPENED IS BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE JUST IGNORANT).

Like when you go in a store and you followed because you have the wrong "accent" 

(BECAUSE REALLY, THAT'S ALL IT CAN BE).   LORD online shopping is so relaxing.  

Like when people walk into the office and assume you are secretary.  Must have been the 

"accent" 

(BECAUSE REALLY, THAT'S ALL IT CAN BE).  

Like when people have to call the bank when you write a check with all them zeros.  Must be the 

"accent" 

(BECAUSE REALLY, THAT'S ALL IT CAN BE). 

Like when you arrived at a hotel and you're told the housekeeping office on the ground floor.  

Must be the 

"accent" 

(BECAUSE REALLY, THAT'S ALL IT CAN BE). 

Like when packages are delivered and you're asked for the woman of the house to sign for the package AFTER you have delightfully said OH MY IT'S HERE I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!  It's my package!  Thank you!  

Must be the 

"accent" 

(BECAUSE REALLY, THAT'S ALL IT CAN BE). 

Like when you're the only woman and African-American in meeting, and people are shocked to realize that you are the BOSS (supervisor)!  

Must be the 

"accent" 

(BECAUSE REALLY, THAT'S ALL IT CAN BE).   

Like when you let people in your office act as if they were the supervisor because that's all they'd talk to (MUST BE THE ACCENT).  Now was good time because when you're the end of the meeting the person says his boss is at the meeting (HAHAHAHAHA A AHAHAHAHAHAH)!  And they ask who!  Tis I!!!!!!  Boy got to do something about this accent.

Like when you arrive to teach a class at the local college and the students don't realize they're speaking with instructor and wonder if the instructor is going to boring.  I CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP!!!!!!!

Like when you know God is in control and not let this "stuff" bother you for 34+ years.  Without my signature (on many occasions) stuff didn't happen.  But I knew that God was watching me and would frown if I abuse my authority.  BUT YOU HAVE GOT TO ADMIT THAT IS SOME FUNNNNNY STUFF!  HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Man my "accent" has gotten me profiled on so many times (

BECAUSE REALLY, THAT'S ALL IT CAN BE).
