Travelling to work via public transport is a sport and increasingly becoming a contact sport. The aggression encountered on the way to and from work are often laced with undertones of racism and sexism. This then sets the tone for ones work day. 

I was recently sent an article by Erika Stallings 'When Black Women Go From Office Pet to Office Threat'. This is something we as black women encounter in the office when we are ambitious and wanting to progress, it's at this point we go from office pet to office threat. We are then met with tension, microaggression, racism the list goes on. I use this episode to explain and address 'Office pet to office threat' and provide some practical solutions, drawing upon my own experiences of this in the workplace.
