not much hr or whatever but it was my first job outside the military having worked in an all male command for 3.5 years. got out, enrolled in college night classes, took a job at the starbucks back home in a 90% woman staff. with 9/11 still being visible in the rearview mirror, the type of woman that worked there was still necessarily attractive, back then, not like now. anyway i guess i must have been talking to some coworker about another coworker because at about week number 3 of being there i got written up for "saying something inappropriate about (hot supervisor milf's) anatomy(ass)". my 50yo woman manager said "there's no point in contesting it because x and y heard you say it so sign here, two more strikes and you're fired". i don't engage in so called (women's verbiage) locker room talk even when working with other dudes but i don't really filter my opinions for women or anyone else either. but having no memory one way or the other of this conversation, i signed the write up of course. turned out a couple of the women there were jealous of me interacting with other woman (my later girlfriend) more than them so that ended up being a great educational experience in working with women. i actively avoid woman friendly work environments now. years later i got staffed on a project for an all woman (except the solitary it guy, a pajeet) marketing company on the west coast. i make half dozen recommendations over the course of a few weeks of meetings but because 1/3 of the company would be on the call because they did everything "democratically", no decisions were ever made about prioritization/direction. i ended up being pulled from the project after at the end of a call setting up the following week meeting, asking why june 19 was going to be an off day for them. they said "that's juneteenth" and i said "ohh that's right, i forgot that's a holiday now". i'm a retard but i'm glad they pulled me from that one.
