skycat 0 #1 February 17, 2007 According to my female co-workers anyway. One of them in the middle of my employees starts yelling at me that I'm flirting with all the male employees and can't keep my pants on. Another one after that comes up to me and says it's just cause I'm "young" and in good shape that there is no way for me to not be. What the hell got into these people, I'm getting married in 2 weeks and they know it, I don't hang out with any of them and other than work where I dress way more professionally than they do, true more stylish, but I'm not going to dress like crap just to make them happy. I'm still so mad about yesterday, I left work at noon cause I couldn't stand sitting there another minute.Fly it like you stole it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

swedishcelt 0 #4 February 17, 2007 They are just jealous. You must be doing a good job. I've been called everything at my workplace, at least I was the first year or two, now no one gives a crap. They'll get over it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bazelos 0 #10 February 18, 2007 See why I like being a man, if I go around flirting with every girl in the office, it would be normal, but if a girl does that, she gets called a whore. So, men= win also vodka+me=not so sober me I am off for a piss nowHe who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, I have been in the IT industry for over 14 years now, primarily male departments. I have seen gossip and crap spread just as fast thru male departments as when I have worked with women.

I have seen and heard this first hand I still think guys are worse than girls with gossip and rumors. They flat out make shit up. At least with girls they don't usually make shit up, they just get jealous and call the other girls whores etc. ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug!

popsjumper 2 #16 February 18, 2007 My 20+years in the corporate world showed that women were by far and away the worst of the two. We men had a weekly pool running for about 2 years on which of the women was going to talk the best smack about one of the other women. It was neck and neck nearly every week. Funny part was, listening to the women, they were ALL a whore at one time or another....sad part is, none of the men really cared about getting laid by ANY of them. My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus. Falcon5232, SCS8170, SCSA353, POPS9398, DS239 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eeneR 3 #17 February 18, 2007 Never said men were worse They dont tend to get catty like women. But they do sit around and gossip about "things". Course this is also dependent on the envrioment they are in.
