****** at its worst

Let me say from the onset that I am one of those people who believe that as long as one Is a South African, they deserve to be respected regardless of their skin color or appearance. I fully believe in a rainbow nation 100%. Now on to my issue. I walked into Mica hardware Groblersdal on 01 March 2019, with my wife who happens to be black South African,American looking for a quote to some material that I need for my home. On the day in question, I walked onto a help desk that was manned by a fellow south African who happens to be White Afrikaner. As I approached the man, he glared at my wife and I could see that somehow we nauseated him. I asked for assistance and he simply shrugged me off, telling me that the products I wanted were not available. I kept quiet and walked onto another help desk that was manned by 3 lovely elderly white Afrikaner ladies. I explained to them what had happened with the other guy and asked them also for assistance. To my surprise, they just made a call to the relevant department and told me that the material that I was looking for was actually in stock. Why is it that white Afrikaners view black people with such disdain, as if I was asking for a handout. I was greatly disturbed by the ****** I experienced in Mica hardware Groblersdal and I urge everyone to stop visiting that branch. If you can't accept business from someone bases on the color of their skin. Why then must you be in business anyway??????
