Excerpt:

EQUALITY IN THE WORKPLACE

I sat down in conference room 321. My boss sat across from me. He smiled. I frowned.

“Henry, it has come to my attention you said something yesterday.”

“I say a lot of things during the day, Mr. Malonzo.”

“I see. Well, specifically around 11:30 A.M. at John’s cubicle.”

“Um, okay.”

“You had some harsh words about pedophiles and racists?”

“Yes, sir. But that was a private conversation between John and I. We were very quiet.”

“You’re going to have to be quieter. Peter, who sits behind John, is a convicted pedophile, and Sheryl, who sits in front of him, is a racist. Here at Metropolis Life we don’t want people to feel threatened or uncomfortable at work. It slows productivity. Of course, you are entitled to your opinion. Just be quieter or don’t say anything at all. Do you understand?”

No.

“Yes, sir.”

“Oh, and Henry. I’d like you to go online and take that Equality in the Workplace course.”

I went back to my desk, sat down, and tore the note taped to my monitor. I crumpled up the word Freak and started the online course in Equality in the Workplace.
