        I bet you were p1shed and went in shouting "2 world wars and 1 world cup".....

        Seriously - does not sound good. I hope you go back tonight and report her to the boss. I don't think it was racial -more that she is ignorant and rude.

        Or - tell her you will not report her to her boss for a BJ...

          Just trying to get the summary...

          - In the past someone has told you they understand you and you speak good German.
          - Last night someone else told you they didn't understand you and you didn't speak good German.

          Because the second person isn't German, this constitutes a racial attack on you.

          Is that right, or are there some more details yet to be added to the tale?

            That's basically it. I guess what is hard to convey was the sniffy attitude, being ignored for long spells despite desperately and strongly trying to get her attention.

            It was definitely racist. No doubt in my mind.

            And Mich wouldn't. Not in a million years.

                Without the attack on my accent, my German speaking you would have a case.
