this is really starting to annoy me at work.
when anything goes wrong with the computers ALL the women run to fetch a younger man who will be able to fix the computers
i am computer literate and can fix most computer problems, if i can't i will research how to fix yet i am ignored and a MAN is always summoned and they will hum an har like i Do when then problem isn'st straightforward
when i complain to my femail colleages about this they nearly always say 'ooh i don't know anything about computers' so building the myth
rant over but anyone had similar experiences? this is in a predominately female environment
