One old White lady who has been working for a while in this company before I joined 3 years ago, she sits on one of the corner seat in office. But she wants to put the blinders down so that sunlight can’t come and distract her as it can sometimes put glare on screen.

So I shifted away from her so that I can open blinders to have sunlight. And the person sitting in front of me don’t have any problem with it as blinders are behind her.

But she kept the blinder down in front of me as she says it will distract her as well. And when I resisted and kept the blinders up she threatened to knock me down and she also said I should go back to India.

I emailed to my hr and manager and even company boss but manager said that it’s not his problem.

Is that because I’m leaving job in one week? I don’t cry victim all the time but when it’s open threat if violence and plain racism, staying silent isn’t the option.

What can I do if none of the manager do something about it?
