re: #250 Look At My New Grandbaby!
There are very few women in my field, and frequently get turned down for a job application “lacks skills” even with >20 years of experience. The “skill” that is lacking is the ability to pee standing up.
I was at a software company where a woman got made the head of a department. Making it 1 female department heads to 9 male department heads.
Instantly, people were talking about ‘affirmative action’. Because, you know, when a group that makes up 50% of the population is represented at 10%, you obviously think that they must be getting an unfair advantage.
Sigh.
