And also, would you take a job for the time being with someone who was a bit bigoted, or would you actually rather look for longer to find a better employer? | |

made it more clear what the question is by putting it at the bottom.

Racism is a significant issue in some places and I think it's valuable to have a question that addresses it. Of course, answers need to back up what they say, not just offer discussion. | |

| Apr 21, 2014 at 16:53 | comment | added | David K | @gnat I really don't think this counts as a personal dilemma. There might not be a purely correct answer, but it is more because the OP has little control of the situation, not because it boils down to personal preference. I think that people will be able to offer advice on ways to ease the job search, even if they are not outright solutions. | |
