Her name is not obviously a “black name.” How would they know she was black? /rhetorical

The system probably looked to the songs in her playlist to generate a password she would remember.

PS. Only people can say racial slurs. If it’s random characters generated by a computer program, it’s random characters, not a racial slur.

I know. I think differently from most of the world. I’m proud of that.

““I clicked “forgot password” and got a temporary password from PSE and it was capitol N-I-G-G-A and I was quite shocked.” “

Was Tommy Sotomayor the one working that day and sent it to her? That is something he’d do! Yes for those of you who don’t know Tommy is black!

Obviously,the computer wanted to be a “playa”, since her original password was kissmyblacka##!

What a dumb **GG*. Does she really think the power company has an employee sitting at a desk making up passwords to send out?

So the computer knows gangsta speak and had access to her color/race?

It looks like a random selection to me. The “I” could be a 1 or an l.

What if it had been NI66A ? She would have complained just as loudly. Some people are such children; they see animal shapes in the clouds. Only idiot children think they were deliberately put there.

Woman brought her kid into our ED 2 months back.
Black kid - he had just gotten back from a mission trip to Ghana.
Because of his symptoms and travel history the nurse mentioned jungle fever.
The kids’ mother freaked - wrote letters to everyone. Demanded apologies.
We sent her a letter - no apology - referencing cdc literature about jungle fever. Never heard anymore from her.

Like they knew she was a black customer? I wonder what would have happened if a white customer got a temp password C-R-A-C-K-E-R?

I think its true. And I think this was NOT random.

She probably has a bad history with employees at PSE. And then it got personal.

If possible, check to see which call center employee has just been fired.

Is that officially an “off-limits” set of letters now? Maybe they need a commission to release a new list each year so everybody is on the same page.

“This is 2018; we’re still dealing with issues like this,” Conway said “It’s pretty sad. As a society, it’s pretty sad.”

Sheltered life much? She never heard rap or rode public transportation In Atlanta or Chicago? Ricard Pryor? That word but with the er is heard so repetitively it seems like they have a stuttering problem.

“An African-American woman says Puget Sound Energy emailed her a racial slur..”

Apparently she didn’t get the email that told her it was a term of endearment.

I look for “THAT” word and spelling in the dictionary. It isn’t there at all. No exception list would contain that random mispelling of FIVE randomly generated letters.
Yes, they owed her an apology, but, frankly, I have been given randomly generated TEMP passwords that could be pronounced as something we wouldn’t like to hear.
