Harold walked into the break room to use the microwave. he overheard two of his co workers talking. Their conversation turned to other staff members and Harold overheard one of them say, I don't think Jamal is very bright. I don't know how he keeps his job here. The other said he only keeps his job here because of his skin color. Harold blink, taken aback.

He walked up to his two co workers and said, the comment you made is offensive. And there are laws against speaking about co workers that way. I leave that kind of talk out of the workplace If I were you, the two co workers looked embarrassed. They apologized for their statement and reassured Harold that he wouldn't hear comments like that again in the workplace.
