Just fwiw

If I would be an outsider I would see terms I do not understand. I could go on searching or asking to get a better understanding of this. Or I could go away. It is however clear to me as an outsider that this forum does not 'support' offensive language and imagery. Perhaps this thread could make people more curious.
There are many threads here that could either attract or not. That is not fully under our control. The senior members on this forum are trying to be as objective as possible and if they are misunderstood by silent strangers as not, then there isn't much they can do about it.
Well then we can just basically hide all the threads, since they all could have a chance of being misinterpreted.
Actually this thread could be a great opportunity for Puck to learn more about himself.

You walk in as the senior staff of the store are very harshly talking to another staff member about them short-changing a customer. Although, what they are telling that person is beneficial to you, the customer- their way of exchanging thoughts seems unprofessional and makes you feel uncomfortable. Don't you think you may be a little put off by witnessing this exchange?
Wouldn't it be beneficial if the senior staff had chosen to take the other staff member to the back , not in view of the public- who are unfamiliar with the context and therefore are more susceptible to misinterpreting the exchange?
