[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 86316, member: 1550"] Hi and thanks for the updates. I already checked and what she said doesn't rise to the level of "racial harassment." I do think she is just an ignorant person, but her words shocked me. Here in Wisconsin and in Illinois nobody had ever said that to me. They either didn't feel that way or knew better than to say that to the mother of a multi-racial family who obviously doesn't share those outdated, bigoted views. I'm not sure what to do, but I know that if I didn't have the job I'd be in full mother bear mode and would probably want her off the bus that my son rides. However, I see her at work and she has concern for the safety of all the kids. She just needs to keep her trap shut and if she opens it again, I'm going to tell her that I have no choice but to tell the boss that she has expressed views that would sound bigoted to most people and that I do not feel the company would like her to say those things. Then I'm going to do it. She had no understanding that she had said anything wrong at all. She is not a very bright person and is obviously living in another time. In our small town, the Homecoming King was the bi-racial son of another boy who rides her route, and I told her that. I also let her know that his date was a blond. She turned red. The lady has serious issues though. She has told me things about her life which make me realize that the lights may be on, but nobody is home, at least in the department of common sense. [/QUOTE]
