Started my new job
Hey everyone!
I got a job as a security officer at a hospital. I'm more new to the area so everyone is new. I'm kinda going threw some stuff since my last shift. It's only my third day.
Anyways, it all men working in this job, and they tend to banter in the security office since there's no cameras in there. Some of them are not that mature unfortunately but it is what it is. Their ages range kind of all over from 19 to 30 and probably some being a little older.
My last shift two of them were joking about just every red flag you could think of. Homophobic, transphobic, racist, anti furry. The list.
I stopped them at one point and called them out on it just sort of listing off all the things they managed to be in that list in the span of one conversation. They said they arn't actually any of those things and it was all jokes. I was told, "we treat this office like Vagus. What happens in the office never happened." Which I get. They would be fired on the spot if they said it anywhere else in the hospital.
I semi believe they didn't mean any of it but part of my don't think they are being fully honest. I think it's sort of a, I don't think I'm those things even when I am type of deal. They seem like nice people generally and I think they would accept me for what I am, a bisexual furry trans person, but I really don't want to make my own life hell...
😅 one of them made a joke about my wife being a him, as sort of a guy joke jab at me at the end of my shift when they found out i was married. Thing is I have 2 partners and one is male. I just... didn't know what to say. Just sort of froze not expecting it to come up so quickly.
Just wish people were a little more attentive. I'm new and could be a bunch of those things. I would never do that to someone new to a job. Even if they don't mean it, I still feel uncomfortable at some of the comments like one if them using the word "tranny" as if it isn't a slur for trans people.
