I love working somewhere that's so fiercely supportive of gay shit. We have a drink of the month sign that one of our gay employees decorated with pride month stuff & someone erased the "pride" in "happy pride month" aka a fuckin micro aggression I guess

Manager is a lesbian and she's like "Oh this is War. I will straight up use company money to decorate the store with flags" bc if some piece of shit customer can't handle a chalkboard sign they're gonna have to deal with So Much More 😊

#speculation nation #like. theres me obviously. im out as bisexual to my workplace & they know i have a girlfriend #manager is a lesbian. vaguely suspect lead supervisor isnt straight but even if she is straight shes very supportive #we at Least two other vaguely lesbian leaning employees. and also a trans employee.#so at MINIMUM there r 5 of us i know for sure. maybe more.#and with the manager and assistant manager (me) being openly not straight. well. it is a Fiercely accepting workplace.#ive already been thinking about bringing one of my flags in to decorate. may just do that now.#god it's such a small thing but it's lowkey insidious. a quiet erasure of our pride in our own space.#like fuck OFFFFF DUDE we are this store's life and blood #if you cant handle your bubble tea being made by gay people then GO SOMEWHERE ELSE... fuck!!!!!!!#genuinely this pisses me off so bad lmao #easy to forget in my own circle that homophobia exists. & then i remember :/#oh well. we r gonna be stubborn about this. the owner (my boss) is a cishet man that doesnt Entirely understand #but he's willing to stay in his own lane & let us do our thing and that's good enough for me.#BLEHHHHHHHHH im really annoyed. ugh.
