Bad day at work.........

Post by Mars »

So glad it is the weekend! Had a go around with a 60 year old contractor who acted like a 2 year old today. He told me I had an "air" about me that he has put up with for 5 years............grrrrrrrrrrrrr, talk about pi**ing me off!!!!!!!!! GGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRR again!

Let him ask me for a favor.................bet he don't get it! LOL

OK, feel better now. :ROFL:

PS - I made myself feel better by going SHOPPING = needed some new clothes for the "skinnier" me! LOL

Enjoy your weekend everyone.

Love,
Mars

Don't all contractors act like 2 year olds?????

Been there, done that

I worked in a lumber and hardware store and when contractors came in, they refused to let me serve them (many of them - a few exceptions). They went to a man who worked the counter and didn't know half of what I did, but I didn't care - their loss. The European ones are even worse the way they act towards women.
My husband came from Quebec and the men there, by in large, treat women like second class citizens]. John sure needed an education when he married me!!! He's pretty good now, but slips once in awhile and gets a stern reprimand.

We have to stand up for our rights.

Hope you had a good shopping trip, Mar, and a nice, relaxing weekend.

Love - Momster
Do something nice for you today
