I have realized i miss Miami :(

Not the place, but the people.

So much more diversity and acceptence, over there you don't get judged for having an accent like we do up here.
Some asshole at a private post office place asked me if I was kgb. Jockingly, of course, but its not fuking funny I'm not even Russian.
Also, I have extreamly unqualified co workers who also pick on my accent.
Maybe ill move back to Miami afterall. I'm sick of redneck bigotry.

I should've walked out of that place in an instant and taken my bussines elsewhere. That would've never ever happened in Miami. I know cuz I lived there over 16 years.

I lived there for most of my life and finally moved up to the North Georgia area. I don't know how I lasted that long. Too many big bugs, too much heat and humidity and too much crime. I'll take the rednecks any day instead of some of the idiots in Miami.
