Section6er Posted July 18, 2003 do somalis expect better treatment whenever they go to a place where another somali person is working? This always happens to whenever they show up at my work place. I mean they will just pass everybody in line and start demanding immediate service and they will get mad if I cant help them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stpaulchick Posted July 19, 2003 I know exactly what ur talking about. :eek: That has happened to me in every job i've worked at. It think they think that since were closer to them then the other people that we should be more considerate in helping them. And don't u always overhear Somalis saying "oh she's a somali, let's go to her" I bet everyone's done that, I even do that. It's just culture instinct. By the way love ur avator.
