Yeah, best not to feed into the "ego". Reason i left my last job i because my good, kind, decent (actually knew how to be a manger) changed stores.

BUT as soon as he started being a prick i either: 1. went off at him usually resulting in me being sent out the back to "cool off" OR 2. I would just walk out and leave ( Good manager understood that if i stayed in the shop with him i would have become violent, which wasn't good when the customers could hear me)
I have a temper, which when set off is not a good thing..... This is why i have a boxing bag at home

I have a low bullshit tolerance threshold too, but what I ended up doing in this situation was completely ignoring the men that did that stuff to me. The reason I did that is if I had still pandered to them and talked to them, it would have fed their already giant egos. So I just acted like they didn't even exist or mean shit to me, lol.

I have two words for ya Becks...... F*CK THAT! I am somewhat of a fem in that respect, there is no reason why a woman should be treated differently in the workplace... In saying that, i'm the kind of person who doesn't take shit from anyone.

Unfortunately, no I didn't report it. In the case of the people we were doing inspections on - no one I could report it to. In the case of getting ignored - I just ignored them back. I probably should have reported that stuff, but the city I was working in was one giant old boys club *sigh*
