Hey all,
I don't know whether or not this should be posted here.
So it started years ago I was on an internship as a cabinetmaker, it was my last year back then.
Ready for work I started fresh in a joinery. I learnt new people there however I felt the longer I worked there the more I became uncomfortable. Here's why. My ganger became soon an asshole. First of all he started to gay bash me by sexual harassing me by calling me gay because I was not masculine enough in his eyes. Sure I meet the definition of demigender (demiman/demiagender) because I don't really masculine stuff that much, but that doesn't mean I'm gay. At that moment I was really sensitive and became easily depressed in life. So everything that he said took a hard hit.
He also liked to tease me by spanking my ass because that's what gay people do in his opinion. He also had favourites like for instance, I had to package let's say 20 tables together with another intern before the end of the day. After an hour my intern went to the restroom but he didn't come back for an hour or so and I had to package them all of them which was unacceptable. I told my ganger (the same one who called me gay) about this and asked for help. But he didn't believe me and gave me a stupid job instead while someone else had to do that job. And guess who got the job? My fellow intern who occasionally ran away like a little child because he doesn't want to do something boring like cleaning. And because he is from the same racial group as my ganger I had a feeling it had a racial connection as well.
At the moment I was scared but mad at everyone there. Now I finally can share my story with people after so many years have passed. It's because of those incidents I have decided to quit the industry.
Sorry for the grammar mistakes English isn't my native language. Cheers.
