  • I work in software support. In my current company, the rank and file are close-ish to half male/half female, but management is almost all male, including all the way up to the 4 founders/heads of the company, and most customer teams are male-dominated. I often am on calls with the network teams at customers, and it's very common for those almost entirely male teams to ignore what I say because I'm female. I very often have to repeat myself many times, and even then it usually goes better if I bring a male on the call to say what I've been saying. However, I'm pretty lucky, because when I brought up that one call in particular got sexist, my male manager essentially said "That's not ok. Should I talk to their leadership?". I've never had a manager, even a female manager, respond that way. Previous managers always pretty much said to deal with it, which I've gotten pretty good at. Now, I will sometimes bring my male manager on calls so that when the team asks him a question, he can say I'm the expert and let me answer. It doesn't hurt that I do have a deeper knowledge of the technical areas, and my manager knows it.

  • As an ally, I can't offer much in words of wisdom, but I am always happy to provide a hug over the internet. So, from one internet stranger to another, I hear you, and I'm here for you.

    Also, I can confirm that crying can definitely feel like a cheat code sometimes. 😊

  • I'm a big fan of Captain Hook as the human scale for the crocodile one. 😂

  • I love that the basket matches her coloring. 🥰

  • I love cats with sad eyes. 🥰🥰🥰

  • I absolutely love those eyes! Even though they're clearly looking down on me with disdain. 🥰

  • Adding half a bag of butterscotch chips sprinkled on the top of box brownie mix. I get tons of compliments like it's the best thing in the world (and it is arguably much better than without the butterscotch).

  • I don't think cats realize how hilarious they are when they use their grumpy faces. ❤️

  • Clearly that is their sofa, not yours. 😜

  • As a current ferret owner, I empathize with this comment so much. I do take mine out on leashes, one at a time, every now and then, and it takes a lot of patience and energy to do so. But it's always great when I get to show people pics or vids of my ferrets on leashes. It always gets a great reaction.

  • Speaking as a ferret owner who every now and then tries to get them into a sweater or hat, I can 1000% agree with this statement.

  • Such a cute little lady!

  • Such a dapper gentleman!

  • Leave the marshmallows to the end when I eat Lucky Charms... And still eating kid's cereal for breakfast.

  • aww @lemmy.world

    For those who need a cute-induced smile today

  • Unfortunately, I don't have any help to offer, but I did want to let you know that it is possible to install on Android from Chrome. I'm replying from mine right now.

    Clearing browsing history sounds like a good first step if you haven't tried that yet. Good luck getting it figured out!

  • Those eyes! How can you ever deny her anything?! 🥰

  • But she's looking so regal while she does.... So, I deem it appropriate behavior. 😜

  • I started with 2, but ended up rehoming 2 more. It worked out well for us since my first two were very different personality-wise and now the one that is always up has 3 siblings to play with instead of just one quite lazy one. 😆

  • It definitely helps telling them apart that they're all different colors. 😆

  • aww @lemmy.world
