That's like telling black jokes at an inner city Popeye's...

It's like telling mexican jokes to your landscaping crew...

You ever make holocaust jokes at the synagogue?

I suspect the people who bemoan "PC" would do that.

Where I work, you would get fired for telling jokes about beating woman.

It appears common sense is not so common these days if someone actually tells the black eye joke at work.

Beer? You mean watermelon, right?

How do you drink a watermelon?

I was like :Q because they're pretty tame ones, like "What do you say to a woman with two black eyes?". This is great...now I got a feminist sitting next to me.

Now I have to start using PG jokes or knock-knock around her. :frown:


You're lucky they don't fire you/press charges.

I sincerely hope you're a troll, because if you don't think that "black eye" joke isn't horribly offensive to women (or anyone at a place of emplyment), you need to get some sensitivity training.

It's one thing to tell jokes similar to that when you're with "the boys" (close friends), but at work?

Idiot.

OMFG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it's a joke people...

i have a black girl that works with me , and SHE is the one that tells all the jokes around here...

Example : What do you call two blacks in a bike???? ( an Africa Twin )
What do you call two blaks in a sleeping bag??? ( a twix )

and so on... and so on...

if you cant take a joke , please do rest of us a favor ans just STFU and go back to work, i would hate to work in a place where everybody just sits at their desk all day just working , and nobody ever gives a LOL. The work is always done, and you just do it a lot more happy.

Have a nice day

PS- Why did god created blondes ?



because the dog cant go to the fridge to get my beer.



Why did god created brunettes?



cause the blondes couldn't either


have a really nice day

Heh, it's stupid to tell jokes like these at work, even if they are tame. People come from different backgrounds and will react in various ways. People get fired for this kind of stuff every day.

I wouldn't do that....I have a flawless bumper on my car...I intend to keep it that way. The only accidents I've been involved in for the last 7 years were all due to people either hitting me or making left turns from the right lanes in front of me, etc. I'm actually a very good driver...even when holding a drumstick.

i would never tell jokes like that. even if everyone laughs at them, you may never know who you are offending.

It looks like we have another quality noob on the forums. Everyone lets please give psebas a round of applause for his obvious lack of experience in the working world, yet still saying what is right for a job.

I dont curse at work around certain people because they dont curse around me. It's common curtosy that is NEEDED in a place where you have to deal with people on a daily basis for years on end. Get a frickin' clue. :roll:

Let me guess... you're like 17, right? Because in a real job, the chances of getting away with jokes like that without getting fired are very, very small. That's just the way things are today. People sue because they get offended, and the company ends up paying. So the company says you can't tell offensive jokes. That way, if someone does, the company fires them and doesn't have to worry about getting sued.

Just a friendly warning.

I would not base my work place behavior on what someone else does. Also because something does not offend you or your friends does not mean it is not offensive.

I love those jokes and I'd put your feet in the fire for telling them in the office...
