I think I'm about to get in trouble...

Last week I was filing up my water jug in the cafeteria while a few coworkers(Some aquatic, some not) were finishing up their break and catching up on internet gossip. So while I'm in there the topic is Lizzo getting kicked out of her her Airbnb for excessive partying/noise is brought up. So the current social climate dictated that somehow it would be turned into a racism issue.

I giggled and said "It probably wasn't her color so much, as it was him being worried about the structural integrity of his home.".

This was Thursday. Took Friday off, and I just got an internal memo from HR wanting to speak with me tomorrow morning.

Should I just start looking for a new job now?

Ouch, RIP Opie.

Better walk in there with a game plan on explaining what happened.

Thus unlamented let me die;

Meh, just understand the equal opportunity policy.

Demographics like race, sex, gender etc are usually protected from discrimination.

Obesity does not usually fall into the protected categories. You should know that policy prior to the meeting.

That's the plan for the night. Make sure I have all my I's dotted and T's crossed. This is my first time ever dealing with HR so hopefully that counts for something.

It was 5 at the time, and I'm thinking it's the skinniest of the group. She's so woke and offended by everything. Her favorite line is "So...Did you hear about...?" The two heavier women are more like mother hen types...They're kind of bitchy, but good at their jobs so people leave them alone. Well except one of them who can't seem to stay off the toilet.

I'm missing the part where you said anything wrong OP?

Were you implying the structural integrity of the home was in jeopardy because she's the size of Jupiter? If that's the case just play dumb and say " I was referring to property damage from all the partying, why are you trying to fat shame Lizzo, HR person?"

This is what happens when you don't have a good side income or side business. Now you gotta suck it up like a good boy and ask them for forgiveness. Such is life of a male in 2020

Gone are the days where fat Lizzo could have said "squuuuuuze me? The fuk you just say?" and you have a conversation about the theory of relativity.

Instead, this is an HR related claim/offense.

just lul.

I think I'm going to play the aloof angle. It's been a rough last few days, so of course I should have no idea of what they're talking about.

OP, if you're black you might be good. I'd go ahead and come out of the closet or go full tranny to get one more SJW box checked. Every little bit helps.
