Racist colleagues forced me to quit job

Hello everyone,

I am a foreigner working as an engineer in Europe for the past three years. This is my 2nd job here. I just found this sub so i am going to write my story here.

During my first job i reported my racist colleague to manager and asked for his advice. I only said that i have never been in this kind of situation and i do not know what to do. He told me you did good by reporting this to me and let me take care of this. Things looked good for sometime. After few days i went home and came back next day to completely strange environment. Everyone in the company boycotted me including that manager. Everyone stopped talking to me, they would not respond to my salutations and pretend they didn't hear a thing. They would not share table with me during lunch. They would not assign me any work at all so they don't have to talk to me. Imagine being in a foreign country with no friends and the people you spend whole day with loathe you. I became depressed and eventually 6 months later i left the company after fulfilling my contractual obligation. I don't want to be in this kind of situation and would not wish it on my worst enemies. Mind you this was a multinational companies with branches in 8 countries and production plants in 4 including US. During first few weeks of this boycott i fixed meetings with manager and colleagues to ask them what happened and their response was everyone has their own worries. I brought it up in weekly meetings few times and they would just avoid it and finally i was kicked out of weekly meetings.

This all happened 2 months before my first daughter was born and everyone knew i was overwhelmed at the time.

Why are racist people heartless and why can't everyone live in peace. Everyone is trying to take care of themselves, their families and their kids.

Ps.

Three weeks after i quit the job they approached me in hope that i would come back. This was because that racist colleague was backbone of our department and he left which made them desperate i think.

Five years ago i was actively looking for a spouse. My friends suggested that i should attend mosque events so i can find potential spouse and talk to her. I went to grand iftar in my city (Europe). Within few minutes i saw a girl and made my mind that this is the one i want to approach.

After isha prayer at around 10 pm i saw the same girl walking by herself in almost dark street. I dont know why but my friends said this is the best moment to approach her and i obliged. 😁

For context i had never talked to a girl let alone for marriage. I dont even talk to my female cousins. I am built like a giant, very tall and wide built. The kind that would make even the boys uncomfortable.

Nevertheless i went for it reciting ayat al kursi along the way.

Here is my conversation with her.

Me: Assalamualaikum (heavy breathing because i had to run a bit to catch up to her)

Girl: (terrified) walaikumsalam

Long uncomfortable pause because i did not know what to say and her reaction caught me off guard 😁

Me: where are you from?

Girl: Egypt (she felt real uncomfortable and intimidated )

Me: i am from ......

Long pause that felt like ages. Completely blank mind.

Me: do you live with your family? (What i meant to ask was if she is an international student or with her family)

Girl: yes.(almost cried)

Me: me too but i am doing masters here.

After long pause it felt like she was about to scream and cry. I left saying byee.

Yeah, i was young, naive and stupid. Its been 5 years and this still haunts me. How i gave that poor girl a trauma?

Alhamdulillah i am married now, not to the same girl but a better one.

Whoever you are, i am sorry and i pray that you find the best husband.
