Angry about work and the 1950's attitude they have.
As most of you know, I work in engineering. Myself and two other guys and the tech writer in the same area. Me and the two other guys have the same job title and do the same work.
Hr guy come strolling over and hands envelopes to the three of them. not me.
huh? And starts a speach. I look I roll my chair to be included. 'No, this does not concern you" what? I hear him talking. He is giving out money for safety shoes to them.
I am getting pissed. Roll my chair back out and interrupted him.
"Excuse me - Why am I not getting safety shoes?" (i'm a girl, see) Some lame answer. Will speak to my boss tomorrow. I go out to the shops, same as them.
(I have frigging safety shoes. I have safety glasses, I have earplugs, hardhats - still in my trunk - and tyvec suits from last job. (hell, all my jobs) I climbed in and around major heavy dangerous equipment that makes this place look like a donut making store - bastids.)
Co-worker actually said, "they don't make stiletto steel tips".
Everyone scream with me.
