I would argue that her looks and attitude to be FAR more overt and disdainful because she thought you were a lady of the night than due to your skin color. Like i said, theres the occasional overt racist here and there, but they dont generally work in service industries they always would have to come in contact with other races with. The visceral disgust you felt is however still socially acceptable most places towards ladies of the night. And x10 for being in utahMototom and Nativedriver Thank this.

I thought so too. Until I went back to the store to buy coffee before heading out about 15 mins later They (same lady cashier) were definitely selling showers to other drivers. I just bought the coffee and left. I don’t see how they cleaned up 12 showers in a space of 15 mins.[/QUOTE]
Get over it, So you live in a less than perfect world, move on. I have not been hired because of age, I just move on. There shower there choice as to who uses it. And frankly most of us are tired of the race card crap.Tb0n3, Dale thompson, jason6541 and 5 others Thank this. -
No joke why don’t men get accused of it. My bf is a driver and was approached by old men twice for “special times”. He couldn’t believe it happened.WallyWallyWorld and MTN Boomer Thank this.

Sometimes if you look hard enough for something, you end up finding it.
Everybody gets into some sort of rude situation eventually. Just move on. -
Typically, In truckstops I expect to find the scum of the earth in general, and seldom disappointed. I do not find your situation hard to believe. Here in CA we've been sending our racist jerks to Utah and Idaho for years, so I would expect it from them, Vote with your money, when mistreated somewhere no matter what it is don't do business with them. Will it make a difference, maybe not but they won't be living off your money.
Nativedriver and Stray_Dog Thank this. -
Get over your color. I have been denied jobs, renting, kicked out of business. Sometimes it is your attitude, the way you look,the language you use, not everyone wants to here the f bomb. POC are just as guilty of racism as everyone else.

I thought calling blacks colored people was decided to be racist. Kind of surprised if your really black you call yourself colored. When I was a kid we said colored people but I haven't heard that used in ages.Trucker61016, bzinger, Stray_Dog and 3 others Thank this.
