I was there almost five years and my boss (a senior male) could not look past the fact I was blonde and cute, with pretty good legs. He once remarked in my review that my greatest asset were my legs! It was brutal. I did what a lot of women in my position would have done. I quit and found a place where my legs did not get in the way of my ambition! I worked for a woman who gave me a lot of rope and there was no ceiling butting against my head. I was very lucky and fortunate... thanks for asking...Julie Rusciolellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00095523922700667223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32848601.post-16342936941849788562008-08-05T13:25:00.000-04:002008-08-05T13:25:00.000-04:00Valid...I meant valid.

What did you do to shatter them?

The pity party never ends!<BR/><BR/>And yes, let's embrace our femininity and marvel that we the softer sex consistently excel at multi-tasking, understanding what makes our clients tick through our attention to detail and of course, our gift for expressing ourselves and deciphering the behaviour and words of those around us. <BR/><BR/>We do it all, and in high heels to boot. No more whining and no more apologizing for it. That's the way it should be...girl power!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32848601.post-65878285366936743542008-08-03T13:28:00.000-04:002008-08-03T13:28:00.000-04:00Hey Julie, thanks for your post.

I guess it's there all right, but I also believe we make our own realities.
