I recently started a new career, and I'm still adjusting to my first real job.
The other day, I was working with a man, who was in a supportive role. He's in school to have my job.
He was giving me advice and telling me that he knows my job is stressful but he thinks I'll be great.
I smiled and thanked him, but I was so put off. If I were in school for X job, I wouldn't give career advice/ pep talk to a person who is already working that job. It's such a man thing to do. 🙄
EDIT: He wasn't even in school to have my job. He was planning on going to school. 😑
The condescension is just mind blowing
There's a story a keynote speaker told about a man mansplaining her OWN book to her. The audacity is everywhere.
If that's the way he talks to women he works for he's not going to get far. Job referral? Haha fuck off. Letter of recommendation? He's recommended to learn his place. I've worked in leadership roles being supported by an endless slew of men over age 40 who were managers once, got fired for being incompetent, and couldn't get anything beyond entry level after that. Those are the most smug, loud, and boring mf's I've ever worked with. Completely condescending and audacious for no reason. They refuse to be told they're wrong or learn something new. So to those men I say, have fun never being asked for your professional opinion, scrotes.
exactly. who cares what he thinks?! is this a reverse neg? 🙄
LMAO audacity is stored in the balls
