"When the recruiter called as congratulated me on getting an offer, I immediately declined, citing “severe cultural differences.”"

It would have been great to see the recruiter's reaction if they had straight up said, "It's because your boss asked me why he can't say nigger." Although I can understand exactly why he didn't say that.

I fail to see how he'd be an opportunist considering there's a very real chance of it happening.
