I worked as a construction manager. In the past a fairly male dominated occupation, but changes are coming. Large commercial and institutional construction projects. One of the managers quit and HR talked the boss into hiring a woman...she did have a CM degree. The rest of us are expected to manage multiple projects...she cried...so she only ever had one project at a time. Her knowledge of basic construction principals and standards were so poor she eventually only received the simplest of projects...yet still managed to eff them up. At first these concessions were labeled as temporary...3 years later that was still only what could be expected of her. CM is work with no set hours...sometimes you go home at midnight...not her...she has kids. 5pm? "see you guys tomorrow!" Hiring her created MORE work for each of the other CMs. Equality my ass.

Hiring a woman for a job like that is like forcibly placing a disabled kid on a sports team. Everyone cheers them on and let's them catch the ball, but we all know it's only to make them feel like they are needed because they have no actual ability.

And not to forget, if you point this reality out to them, you're a backward savage with no feelings, just like when you point out the reality of women's behaviour, you're a sexist misogynist loser.

But she wants to be paid the same as the men.
[–][deleted] 14 points15 points16 points 9 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link
That's just poor upper management. Low quality of work, failed deadlines, they should can her, regardless of gender.
[–]ZombieAlpacaLips9 points10 points11 points 9 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
That's great until you get sued for firing her because of gender.
[–][deleted] 7 points8 points9 points 9 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
If you have the right paperwork to back up your claims, its an easy and done deal.
[–]ZombieAlpacaLips8 points9 points10 points 9 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Sure but that doesn't mean it won't be an expensive headache to clear up the issue.
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Expensive on who's dime? Unless you're the CEO or a company shareholder with a huge holding, or the part of the corporate legal team, how she gets dealt legally by your company is not an issue you should lose sleep over.

Pretty much been my experience with women at work. Anytime one is on my crew I know my work load is going to double. Actually it would be better to just be short handed so they wouldn't get in my way
[–]BullyJack10 points11 points12 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
My boss is a GM/owner/carpenter/chick/socialite and she's on some hilarious shit telling me women are good for cleaning and talking to clients and painting. She's the anomaly for sure. Right now she's doing some women building project housing thing (which is fine, it fits the narrative and maybe some girl will make shingles lighter) but she's gonna have great stories Monday about them.

Your anecdotal evidence is so convincing! And I really do believe that it all happened just like you describe it! Yessir.

Probably a woman.
[–]ulrikft-1 points0 points1 point 9 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Of course, questioning unsourced and unverifiable stories tailor made to further the misogynist agenda of this sub is censorship. Because dissent and questions is hugely problematic. Can't have that.
[–]ulrikft0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
This was oddly specific. Citing personal experiences..? If you keep getting accused of participating in gang rapes, dare I suggest that it isn't the victims that are the problem..?

No, we're not monsters, we're just animals. We do the exact same things that all other animals do, except we have tools. If hyenas or chimpanzees or wolves had brains as big as ours and could use tools, they would be engaging in the same stuff we are. To say that we're uniquely monstrous or that we are some aberration of evolution is just silly. We're nothing more than animals living out our lives under the pressures of our instinct.
You say innocent animal blood... We're omnivores. Just like chimpanzees, our closest genetic relatives, we have evolved to eat a wide range of foods, including meat. Again, you're attempting to separate humans from all other animals, which I think is a mistake. To say that we are bad because we kill other animals is to say that birds are bad because they fly, or chimps are bad because they eat meat, our that lions are bad because new alpha males will kill the offspring of their rivals. It's in our nature to do the things we do. Eating meat, using tools, hypergamy, sexual dymorphism, are all parts of our evolution. To rail against any of them, or to deny their value in helping to create us is just silly. There's nothing bad about us because of these things, they just are part of what makes us... Us.

Well said. We are also the only species that has given the slightest fuck about any others. Yes we threaten their populations but we also go out of our way to protect them sometimes. Humanity or rather whatever we bevome is the rest of the world's only change of making it off the planet when it becomes uninhabitable in a billion years or so

Not really. We have a choice. We create art, music and philosophy. People can be bad, but that's because they are following their ego and not their Source.
[–]newMGTOW3 points4 points5 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Jordan Peterson actually addressed this once, the world (before feminism bullshit) was equal enough, people could decide themselves what they fit into eg decide what they wanted to do with thier life and in most cases you do what's required and you make it, society and individuals self managed themselves through supply and demand and each persons preference, HOWEVER, once the feminists came along they started saying we have to have x amount of women here, y amount of minority here in that job. But the thing is you can continue to subdivide down to the individual level, what about black women? Rich women? Poor women? Tall women? What quota do you want for each? You are artificially trying to force what everyone was already doing, people fell into the roles they desired and sorted themselves on an individual bases, but to try and do it artificially is just too much of a shitstorm

We are not evil we are animals as well. Nature isn't good or evil it just is.

Seeing 1/10 woman now in Automotive, and usually see them at the Till/behind counter job in mechanics uniforms, not nearly as messy/smelly as jobs pictured in top 3 pictures though.
[–]Mini_Mjolnir8 points9 points10 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I've dealt with them as service writers and office staff in automotive. Useless. Office staff? Your pay will be fucked up every week. Service writer? Oh dear god. Try being a driveability tech and explaining a diagnosis involving use of a lab scope. Bad enough with some men as service writers because there's just the typical male ego thing, someone "under" you knows more than you do. But a woman? No they just can NOT have some dirty mechanic know more than they do.

I have yet to see a female garbage person.
Had to correct myself from saying "female garbage-man" because the cultural-norm is so concrete.
[–][deleted] 6 points7 points8 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Fuck cultural norms, and fuck political correctness.
[–]FeelThatBern2 points3 points4 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
cultural norm is actually a terminology for something whereas political correctness is just partisan dogma stifling free speech.
im fine with the former as it serves a purpose

Contractor here. As I was on my knees today tiling a floor, it occurred to me that in over 20 years I have never met or even heard of a female tiler.
On the one hand, women are dumb. Then again, they ain't stupid either.

That's just the tip of the iceberg for the labor force

And they demand equal representation in tech despite hating it.
All women see is $$$$$ and air conditioning and then cry misogyny when they realise the tech world is a meritocracy.
[–]kyledontcare6 points7 points8 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
And then they cry about how the air conditioning is too strong.

Your going to do the bitches job or help her with the job or your not a team player and will be fired. Resign with no animosity. Come back a few years later the boss will be gone, the bitches will be gone. Stay until the shit starts again. Wash-Rinse-Repeat. This is the world men live in.

Excellent - you don't see any clamouring for this real version of equality in this report: the Female FTSE. After all "equality" only appears to matter to females if the jobs are well paid. Check this highly selective triggerred report out:

Working in waste management can be a good career choice if you dont want to go to college.
[–]Cactus_in_my_arse0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Maybe the reason women don't work in these sorts of jobs is because it makes them less desirable in the eyes of men?
