I didn't expect to get diatribes on the horrendous responsibilities you men suffer in the struggle for womyn's equality. But, good on you for your efforts.  Egalite, Fraternite, Beyonce!  Vive la France!

You started it. 
 

No I do realize how *the man* is burned in effigy. We're the masters of trickenology according to some.  What we ALL have to realize as human beings is that none of us *have it all*.  NONE of us get by unscathed.  I remember hearing that google chick say something to the effect of *why can't womyn have it all too?*  That's a straw argument because nobody in the corporate world has it all.  Even the psychopaths at the top suffer.

OK.  I'm confused.  For a while I figgered you for a wimmins.  Then I didn't.  It really doesn't matter except for my own curiosity, and possibly a bit of extra politeness, but are you a minns or a wimmins?
 

Bob, we live in a post-binary world.  Btw have you ever wondered why horses evolved to look like sea-horses?

No, I have wondered why centipedes have so many more legs than they could possibly need.  Seriously, could you image having to buy another 49 pair of shoes?

exactly! HOW INEFFICIENT! :D:D

Hi,
 
Never had that issue in managing two restaurants. Had a couple of women cooks that were as good, if not better than any of the men before or after.
 
No big deal, and if someone makes a big deal of it, they do not want a job. They just want trouble, and I'm not hiring them!
 
There are some questions that are not exactly appropriate, specially nowadays, and asking a Call Center (like the one I was in) what percentage of employees are men or women, or how many in management of that Call Center are men or women, is NEVER ... going to move you up the list of choices for hiring.
 
However, I have to say that I left the restaurant business behind, as in the 80's it was just a pick up line for rapers, child molesters and thieves ... and I was not interested in that kind of dishonesty, and control of innocent folks, specially young ladies. I wish there had been, at the time, a better mechanism to take away some folks that should not have been in management as they were!

Pedro, do you work at a Denny's or a Shari's?

Nope. In the 80's, Carrows and King's Table. I helped open up the 3 Carrows Restaurants here in the Portland area and a couple of years later came up to this area and went to work with them. Carrows was nice in the beginning, but when I got here to the Pacific NW, it was already being run by one of the lowest of the low, who even placed a woman in management in Salem, so he could get some extra on the side. And demote her a couple of months later, because of it.
