Sounds to me like your bosses took 2+ years to finally figure out that you were out of place.
Sometimes you can't make sense out of somethings, you just have to do them.

theres some truth to that...but i can't mention what race they are coz then i'll get flamed with a whole
bunch of other crap.

I read the whole thread to make sure I saw your follow-up comments to the first post.
And now I have to say, you are way overreacting. Maybe it's because of your home move, but I think you have lost your perspective. Not that you have to be happy about it, but your reaction is over the top. If you can't accept it, at least do yourself a favor and don't make an issue over it at work.
If he wants you to move because he thinks you aren't doing any work, being upset is only going to convince him he was right.
If he wants you to move because he thinks it will improve the group, being upset is only going to make him think you can't get along with your co-workers.
If he wants you to move because he has other plans for your current spot, being upset is only going to make him think you are a PITA prima donna who thinks he's deserving of special treatment.
I have had to move people who didn't want to move, and they thought they could concoct some lame excuses to get me to "see the whole story". Here was one attempt, by a person who was sitting in the middle of an aisle, and was being moved to another spot which was on the end of an aisle: "I think it will hurt my work to sit there, because the noise made by people going up and down the hall all day will keep distracting me from my work. So if my work suffers, don't blame me because I've already told you that was going to happen." My answer was to suggest that he give it his best shot, and as long as I never catch him loafing I will accept his explanation. But if I did catch him, then I would know he wasn't making his best effort, and none of that would matter. And since it's not all that tough to catch someone loafing if you are intent on doing it, that was that. It definitely hurt his career, though, except he'll never know it because no one is going to tell him.
Those attempts are so transparent and all they did was convince me they are slackers who thought I was so dumb that their BS would fool me.

dude your weaksauce
if this is the way you normally act i can see why the other engineers had you put away from them....

On moving day just burn a fatty in the parking lot before going inside. You will get into the whole project. Who knows, it could take days if you have enough stash and brownies.
firstly i am not giving him any BS. The new place is like a big cube almost wholly covered so no one can see me, my screen or whatever...
so its not like i'm being put in a spot to get monitored. second, yes my sanity might suffer some...coz that friggin place is nex to the kitchen
and these mofos go ther every so often to warm up their food, grill crap,...take water, and fu[king microwave popcorn which i hate..pungent sh1t will be in my face for the next 1/2hr while they are munchin. And of course since the kitchen is there,...toilet is not too far away.
AND TO MAKE THINGS CLEAR...CALL ME A FUKKING RACIST if u want...
i'm the only non-Indian in the group ok?...also the one been there longest...indian vp will
only hire indians...which i dun care, none of my business. i have no probs with.
however, i have a prob during lunch when they ALL seem to bring lunch to work and they are
workin the damn kitchen which is nex to me and i do NOT particularly care for the pungent
herbs from their food. So i usually stay away during lunch hours. There, happy?
this is of course jst one of the reasons i'm pump pissed.
