Either way why didn't someone call him out and check his shyte right then and there? They couldda had a discussion and figured it out easily. Instead they waited until he left and cried to the chief and got the dude canned. Seems pretty passive aggressive like the office politics you see 40 y/o women involved in. Perhaps he is better off not working there anyway.

I would have assumed 1) Detroit couldn't afford a fire department, or 2) they just let the buildings burn down anyways for a fresh restart.


Would have taken watermelon with me and enjoyed at home. Sad that adults can be total *******s.

Not gonna comment on whether he did it on purpose or not, but I gotta say, he didn't just bring in a watermelon, he brought in a watermelon WITH A PINK BOW ON IT to a BUNCH OF BLACK PEOPLE. Brb chuckling too hard.

This thread proves why, given what power the US has, the majority of its people are too fukin stupid and up themselves to move past. I can only see this whole race thing becoming worse over the coming years.

If you watch the vid the chief or whatever says it's typical for new hires to bring treats, etc, and that the usual is donuts.

Being that this guy is a fire fighter and most likely health conscious he probably thought a huge watermelon for the boys was a good idea.

And by boys I mean "the boys", not " boy"

Actually there aren't that many, and I'd go as far as to say that's for anywhere. It's just that the majority of people who are normal are to busy living life to deal with snowflake tears. Just shake your head and move on.

2 of those 3 probably would've knocked home boy the fuk out in their 20s. Would you prefer that instead? I wouldn't mind it personally, as long as they could both keep their job

Could've been intentional, could've been meant as a genuinely nice gesture. But in the context of gift-giving, is giving a whole watermelon with a bow on top common?

He should have thought about how it would look when he made that act, not going to lie. The issue is, and will always be though, that they are perpetuating the image of watermelons being racist through their decision to fire him.
