Saying that in front of anyone that is Chinese is offensive, unless they are really cool with you. I have a co-worker that makes jokes like that to me all the time, difference is, we know we're joking.

It's amazing how people get all butthurt when the n bomb is dropped, but when Asian derogatory words are used, it's harmless.

what you guys see as a joke, is nothing more than derogatory remarks.


shouldn't jokes appeal to all?

If you go to a Chris Rock show, yea, you know what to expect ... you go to work, you don't expect this.

i think nightshade said it best. anything that could be perceived as offensive shouldnt be brought up in the workplace.
