I 27m work at a repair facility in a very Religious, republican, and traditional part of West Texas. I am a gay man. LGBT communities struggle here. I messaged the shope foreman if he had an update on a claim he submitted to a manufacturer to which he replied “One minute let me check” about 4 hours pass and I message him back “long minute”. He then proceeds to say “N****, we work back here, Go back under (Managers name)s desk” followed by a gif/meme of someone doing a Oral act motion.
Ice been working here for two months, I don't have established friendships with my coworkers to this degree where saying something like that isn't going to bother me.
I need your opinions please on how I should act or if I should act at all.
