There's some Jew in you

[lavendertook]

Coworker: And your pocketbook is purple, too!

Me: Yeah, I like it. I got it from the street vender up the block. I actually bargained him down for it.

Coworker: So you got some Jew in you.

Me: I AM Jewish.

*nervous giggle from her and other coworker*

Me: Watch that stereotype there.

*she goes to talk about other coworker about business and ignores me*

Heh. You are better than I. I'd have gone OFF.

Ivanova is not amused.

Report her if she's not directly above or below you.

It's not being able to react that is always my worry and the place I work away from.

Not necessarily a good idea when you're just working as a contractor and working with fed employees.
