%title [no subject] %date 2008-07-04 05:59:23 :diary:livejournal:fossils: So for those of you who weren't privvy to my venting, I'm dealing with a good bit of homophobia at work. Usually, I just ignore it - the idea is that my sexuality has nothing to do with my work, until it starts to interfere with my work, and it's getting to the point where I can barely look my boss in the face, with all of the goofy, nasty, or even hateful things he says (usually about the building proctor, who is openly gay). Basically, it's starting to interfere with my work because I'm so uncomfortable around my boss and coworkers when they joke about that. I've been asking everyone's opinion, including that of the GLBT Student Services director, whose job it is to deal with this sort of thing, but other opinions would certainly be helpful! I should add that it really is all joking and commentary - my boss has completely revolutionized the way the workplace runs for the better in every other way, so I'm loathe to get him fired, or even disciplined. Rather, I'm looking for a more personal, one on one solution.
