#20: Says Who?
It’s no secret that men and women are treated differently in office jobs. From the disparity between women’s and men’s salaries to their job titles and responsibilities, and even the way women are treated by their bosses and coworkers. We hear about it all the time, but some people get to see this phenomenon firsthand.
This person shared an overheard conversation in the office that shows some of that disparity: one person was overheard advising their coworker to wear heels to her upcoming interview, saying that “women are more likable in heels.” I’ve never heard that before in my life. It sounds like such an old-fashioned sentiment, like something that people might have thought fifty years ago.
