Anyhow, I wanted some New Balance pants in the Navy colour so they had to order it in. The girl at the time called me a week later to say my pants had arrived. I drove to the store (20 minutes away) where they ordered the wrong pants in! This new girl then said it will be another week of two to order the pants in and she will call me when they arrive. I received no call for over a month so I called them up. The pants came in but cause I didn't come to pick them up, they put them on the floor and someone bought it! I said I never received a call. I wasn't happy, so I wanted to talk to the manager. The manager placed another order.... And guess what... She fucked it up, not once but twice!!! By that time Xmas came and all stores where out of stock. I had to wait another 2 months where I basically had to train this manager to triple check the serial number (not a hard thing to do). 4-5 months later (Feb 2019) I finally got my fucking Navy New Balance pants!!!

Sadly, what you actually did was train her that she can fuck up an order multiple times and you'll still buy the product.

Complaining and repeating the order were mistakes. Taking your money elsewhere would have been the correct move.

When I see career women, I always wonder who's home raising the kids.

This thread is stupid. I hired women for the health care of my wife during pregnancy and the birth of my son. Those are pretty damn important things in my life. Years from now, I will likely hire women as well to take care of my elderly parents.

At work, I hire some women for customer service roles, and hire men to code. I don't do the opposite of that, because that'd be stupid.

If you hire incompetent women (or men) for important things in your life which they are not suitable for, that's on you, not them.

You don't have much of a choice in areas like carers and customer service as the vast majority of them are female.

Interesting point about nurses. I had a major surgery when I was a teenager and was stuck in the hospital for about a week, so I had a decent amount of nurses.

I had one male nurse and probably 15 female nurses.

According to my parents (I was too drugged up), he was the best nurse that I had that week. They said he never missed a checkup, was always there when the machine went off, and went above & beyond when it came to helping me walk.

Sometimes you don't know that people suck at their job until you see someone that is good at their job.

Well we wish you continued success in the future... cuz you'll need it! I agree the premise of the thread might be too harsh... but you have to be blind not to see the risks in hiring women. And there's no logic to This: The good looking fit one might bring the most drama, while the fat sloppy looking one is a disaster in everything... outside of the workplace. Seen Both

Every good-looking woman has a backup plan (or twelve) is she screws her life up. Men, not so much.

Adversity breeds competence. A male nurse? Hard thing to do - the incentives are against it - so if he's there, he's probably really good at his job. Either he enjoys it, despite the feminine title, or he's using it to advance his career. The inverse applies to affirmative action.

It's amazing how many people responding to this thread didn't even read the original post.

What's the old saying? A woman can be a great mother, great wife and great careerist - but she has to choose 2 of the 3.

If she chooses a career, her family suffers, often dramatically. That alone is a good reason to avoid hiring women. I think we can all cite examples of women who really are as good if not better than equivalent men at their jobs, but they're usually exceptions that prove the rule.

My mom recently passed away from cancer. Her original doctor, a man, gave her 6 months to live and didn't even recommend chemo saying, "Maybe you should just let nature take its course." I almost threw him a beating in his office for being so callous.

I got a second opinion, a woman, who bought my mom 4 years - 4 great years of health (until the final month) and she'd still be alive if a different doctor (a man) hadn't screwed up. She's the best doctor - for men and women - you'll find. Who raises her kids? Her husband who doesn't work.

Exceptions, there are always exceptions but, especially in the MeToo age, you're better off hiring as few women as possible. You're sidestepping a ton of potential problems.

My condolences for your mother captain....

I think this thread is geared towards men receiving services from women. I do agree that men can be terrible too, but the consensus of this thread is to generally not use women for your (male) needs. (Sex aside).

You do know when a woman works, it increases the chances of divorce by up to 50%. Specially if she earns more than the man cause she becomes the head provider. If the man is a stay at home Dad, he will develop lots of feminine naturing skills (dealing with kids 24/7) and loses his muscular traits. When this happens the wife will lose attraction to him and the chances of break up/affair increases. Studies have shown, the more men help around the house (does the woman's job) the more chance of a breakup (https://www.medicaldaily.com/more-chores...rce-242815) . A man's job is to provide for his family while a woman's job is to look after her family and house. It's what keep families together since the dawn of man.

This is another reason why I always ask for a man in every product or service I purchase cause I'm saving a family from breaking up!

I take an Improv course with undergrads at my school and in my class there is this 8/10 Polish American university soccer player/sprinter chick in my class. Initially I thought I could make some headway with her but turns out she is already dating one of the star athletes of the university.

She is doing some sports related degree and doesn't seem too intelligent compared to most of the girls in my school. She seems more of a typical pretty looking college athlete.

Two things which surprised me were first, she is very Christian and seems to come from a well off family. She'll write all these Bible quotes and stuff on her social media. However, in class she wears athletic leggings or real tight small athletic shorts that show off her ass and acts as if it's perfectly normal.

Secondly, and this is the bigger surprise for me, she is going to Investment Banking post undergrad. She is graduating this year and last year she also did an internship in IB.

How the fuck does that happen? Does she even have Finance knowledge? I don't know. She might have taken couple of electives in Finance to show on her resume. I have no idea what value she will bring to the bank. She is literally just a pretty face.

And now she'll make 80k right after school and add IB bonus to it her total annual income will be 150k. What the fuck is she going to do with that money?

She'll then probably do 3-4 years more of IB and since she has tits and IB on her resume, a top 7 MBA will give her admission. In the mean time if she has not snagged her current bf for longterm, then she'll probably capture an IB dude. She'll either work as a consultant post MBA or do IB again till she makes her millions, gets bored of it and then enjoys some stay at home role or runinng some charity organization with her multi millionaire husband.

Talk about life on easy mode.

Where as there must be 10000s of guys busting their humps, doing hardcore finance courses and certifications such as CFA and hard quant stuff, trying to build strong networking and social skills, running here and there to apply for wall street jobs and not getting anything. These guys will then end up doing lower skilled 50k jobs or being unemployed while the girl smiles getting her 150k check only to spend it into oblivion as she will have no responsibility to save any of it.

This is how the economy gets fucked.

If nothing else.
What's the point of having children if you're spending so much time working (plus overtime) to simply pay for the expensive childcare of the kids you never see...?

[SW15]

I would agree with most of this. I worked in a company that was majority female. The environment got worse as time went on and more females got into power positions. When I first started with the company, my manager was male. Then he quit, I got a female manager. My female manager reported to the head of the department, who was a feminist who would tolerate minority males but basically considered white males to be scum. Somehow, as a white male, I kept surviving and getting good performance reviews, but the work environment got to a point where it was so toxic that I had to quit.

I got another job for more money and I now have a male boss. Life is better. It's still an office job, so there's still petty female stuff that occurs, but not as toxic as the place I described.

For years here in Kenya the government has struggled to increase hospital deliveries-the budget was raised,more nurses were hired,public awareness was raised and yet for at least 5 years delivery levels stubbornly stayed at 60%.
At their wits end the MoH wisely decided on an outsider to research the issue and quickly it was found the treatment of pregnant women in labour by female nurses drove them away. In fact oft times they preferred male nurses!

I really wish now I had titled this thread: "If you want to collapse your economy, give a lot of your jobs to women". Let me describe the status of women employees in America:

- Women managers in healthcare. We're getting sicker because of women in the workforce. The cost of healthcare is going up like crazy, crushing the economy. One of the biggest factors in this is the huge number of women in management roles in healthcare...they are 90% parasites. They create huge amounts of unnecessary paperwork and bureacracy. Women love that shit, because they can sit and shuffle paper and pretend to be working.

- We have a doctor shortage. Guess why. In many regions, you can't find male doctors, they are all women doctors, and that means we have a LOT fewer doctors because women once they become doctors quit soon in their career -- it's too harrrrddd they whine. Medical schools haven't expanded their training -- so the net result is doctor shortages.

- Women are flooding the legal system, women lawyers and judges. They are horrible, love, love, love to put men in jail (especially black men) for longer sentences.

- Women as cops? Disaster. They can't do the job. They retire early and take huge pensions. Let's fact it...they're just parasiting off the system. Those cop pensions are incredibly rich to compensate cops for the danger of the job...women are squirming their way into getting that fat pension without taking on any real danger. So the police departments have to hire more employees at astronomical prices, yet are getting less public protection. I bet you could write a whole book about the disaster of women in the police field.

- Women in the military -- ditto.

- Women in high tech. Some women sales reps, developers or engineers can be fine if managed on a tight leash by a man. But women managers suck badly. They drag down profitability at every step.

- Women HR managers -- the main reason recruiting is so fucked up. Instead of hiring for ability, they hire for "I like him as a person" or based on lazy metrics like random certifications. They love to fire older men (women't eternal prejudice against older men) thus causing age discrimination.

On the whole, American society has become bloated and inefficient. Why? Women in the workforce; especially single and lesbos.
