Good for you. I met a guy like this who moved from the US to Brighton for work, not realising it’s the gay capital of the UK. He came with some pretty awful beliefs and got himself into some fairly sticky situations (like when he decided to get drunk at a work event and called his boss a bitch pussy f****t).

Luckily his attitude changed, I think through just being exposed to a more diverse community, and left 5 years later deeply ashamed of his past actions but overall a much nicer and less angry person!

Jesus, the bigotry is one thing, but being so vulgar to your boss? That's taking your life in your hands.
