2. Right here with the men in tech
Sitting in front of our home computers, bemoaning the lack of tech jobs. :banghead:

You know, I just had an epiphany. If Cascadia were to secede, its residents would be eligible for h-1b jobs. :thumbsup:

5. That's not true, HypnoToad.

The women equal the men where I work.

That will not change.

7. I'm a technical trainer...
teaching software for a computer company. Roughly 90% of my customer students are men (though the students from my company are about 60/40 men to women). It's become something of a joke -- I know that when my students get really irritating, all I have to do to escape is go to the ladies' room.
