Shame

[jennyaxe]

Today at lunch I was sharing a table with seven other coworkers.

One of them made a racist joke.

I didn't say anything to discourage that sort of thing or show that I intensely dislike it.

I wish I had. I'm ashamed. I thought I was a stronger person.

Yes, that's it - I was completely flabbergasted and when I'd recovered my wits the moment had passed and it was no longer the right time to take issue with what he'd said.
