07.25.12 | I have two. At my full-time job, the one downstairs from my apartment, the shop is owned by a couple my mom's friends with. They're always at our other location, so I run this one. At one of my other jobs, I exclusively have a female boss (also a friend of my mom). My bosses are cool as fuck though. |
Deviant.
07.25.12 | Yeah, never had a problem with the one I had. Maybe because she was only a few years older than me, so we'd always end up getting drunk after work or some shit. You're fucked if she's elderly, and a feminist |

07.25.12 | I have one presently and it's not bad at all. It's a pretty lax work environment overall so. |

07.25.12 | You guys are pretty lucky! Mine is not exactly very elderly but she is approaching her 30s and she is still unmarried. In my country that is always real concern for women and I think that is the reason why she is such a miserable bitch! Tries to make everyone in the office as miserable as her by being unnecessarily confrontational and pushy. Quite a number of guys have had enough of her and quit the job before. Good thing is I only have to deal with her for one more month before I go back to uni. |

Vesper
07.25.12 | If you're trying to make a point about having a shitty boss, ask "Ever Had a Shitty Boss at Work?", not assign her incompetence and poor behavior to her gender.
And for people who make the point about female bosses favoring female staff, it's not right, but just think how often male bosses favor male staff (and I mean professionally, not flirting with that new hot ass in the office) and get back to me before you open your fucking mouth. |

Yeah, me and all the other people pointing out how imbecilic it is to focus on her being female and not just being a bad boss, regardless of gender.
Let me guess, going by your user name, you're from Korea. If so, I'm so not surprised by your sexist bullshit.
'haha vesper gets mad on a sputnikmusic list lol'
Not mad. Just pointing out someone's stupidity with a good measure of rudeness. |
DraconForsaken
07.25.12 | Vesper's right. Judging a boss based on gender makes you just as bad as a boss who favors employees because of gender. Workers should be judged by work, not what they look like or what they have (or lack) in their pants.
On the off chance you get an attractive boss, DO NOT go after them while you work there. Get another job, keep connections. Half the jobs I've worked would have been way more tolerable if people learned to keep their personal lives to themselves. |

So true!

***********************
1. I am not from anywhere near Korea.
2. I am not sexist either. Just thought that this repeating pattern maybe there is something to it. Maybe I did suggest it but to accuse me of being sexist is pretty off to say the least. I would go on to explain and explain why many of the issues I encounter with her are due to her being female [again at the risk of sounding sexist] but I guess that would be just opening a can of worms. Lets face it Vesper, both men and women have some traits that the other gender may find it a little hard to deal with, and I would happily deal with them if it was in a relationship (I don't expect my women to be angels) but in the workplace I expect people to be responsible and save |

07.25.12 | "Let me guess, going by your user name, you're from Korea. If so, I'm so not surprised by your sexist bullshit." lol. women in korea run their husbands. no joke at all, women dominate men in every relationship i've seen over there. |

07.25.12 | lmao vesper is gonna have such a field day with this thread after a while. |
jdennis31
07.25.12 | and women are indeed terrible bosses. it seems that a lot feel that they had to work harder and do more to get where they are, so they act superior to their male underlings |
KSK1
07.25.12 | My current boss is a female and she's also a fucking cunt. However at my last job I had multiple who were females and we all got along really well. Damn I miss those days. |
Vesper
07.25.12 | 'Just thought that this repeating pattern maybe there is something to it. Maybe I did suggest it but to accuse me of being sexist is pretty off to say the least.'
Let me put it this way.
If this boss acted EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, but was male, you wouldn't have put "female" in the list title.
Besides the fact that it's much more common for higher level administrative positions to be held by males, it's just completely irrelevant to try and pin it on her sex.
You realize this: "explain why many of the issues I encounter with her are due to her being female [again at the risk of sounding sexist]" because, yes, it is sexist to say someone acts like that because, haha, women are bitches, it's their time of the month, and so on.
There are lots of absolutely shitty women - I live with one as a roommate - but it's not because they're female. It's just they suck as people, lack social decency, etc.
I'm sorry she's being an asshole to you or whatever.
And sorry for assuming you're from Korea, but your surname appears to be Kim, and I've heard this spiel from Korean guys who expect women to always be sweet and call them "oppa" (big brother) and shit.

07.25.12 | *popping pop-corn |
jdennis31
07.25.12 | well korean guys expect younger guys to call them "hyung" (big brother) and always treat them with respect, so it's not a gender thing, it's age. |
Skrapyard
07.25.12 | |
Vesper
07.25.12 | "it's not a gender thing, it's age"
The terms themselves are not. It's the way they use them and act. I haven't been to Korea in a while, but at least in the heavily Korean areas I've lived (namely LA, Atlanta, and New York), there's definitely an infantilizing aspect to the way the females act around their boyfriends. It's like that "oppaaaa~" thing. |
omnipanzer
07.25.12 | "well korean guys expect younger guys to call them "hyung" (big brother) and always treat them with respect, so it's not a gender thing, it's age."
I think the point is unearned respect, I have a problem with that myself. |
jdennis31
07.25.12 | yea can't disagree with that. it's weird that i don't see that in older married couples though. women have their husbands in check, it's pretty pathetic. not that the women is in charge, just that any person in a relationship has that much power over the other |
jdennis31
07.25.12 | "I think the point is unearned respect, I have a problem with that myself." most def. they had some story where a copilot refused to question the orders of the main pilot because of difference in age, and the plane ended up crashing. think they are trying to get rid of that mind set |
