No, Marian should not think about quiting
Explanation:
- This is a case of discrimination at work place.
- Marina's getting upset is obvious but she should not think about quitting her job.
- This action will damage her own confidence and her racist co-workers will feel right about criticing her and her abilities further more.
Things that she can do :
- She can confront her coworkers and tell them that criticizing and making racial discriminatory remarks is not good.
- Or she can completely ignore them and talk to her seniors about this incident.
