We use the regular black card machines, but the wifi isn’t great as I work in a very old pub so they’re slow. You get the classic “oh so it’s free then” and you can have a laugh.

The other day I apologised for it being slow, and a guy looked at me, a woman, and said “the card machines obviously a woman then isn’t it”

What do you even say to something like that? I get sexism all the time and don’t know how to deal with it. Advice?? I’m only 17 and already losing my mind over angry men/woman.

There's really not much you can do when you get comments like that. They're dumb and annoying, but they're not really at the level of being so offensive you want to get into a whole scene over it. Don't lose your mind over that stuff, just learn to shrug it off.

I tend to reply with comments of similar nature to those they say. A regular asked a coworker who is a few years younger than me if she wore a skirt when she went for her driving test (insinuating that’s why she passed) so, I asked him if he drives, he said yes, and asked him the same question back.

I’ve never seen someone silenced so fast in my life.

In this case, i’d of probably replied, “No, I think it’s a man considering how long it takes to get any of them to do something you ask.”

I tend to not say anything in the moment because I’m so caught off guard when someone says something rude like that - then I seethe later on as I think back to what they said… maybe it’s a good thing I don’t react right away because I’d probably always be fighting!

I’m considering leaving Google to go work at a startup, I’m wondering if things don’t work out how easy it’d be to come back to Google. I’d love to hear from people who returned to Google how the process was. Does the company value your previous tenure at Google, or do they treat you like any external candidate who never worked at Google before?

Out of curiosity. How would a company view a potential candidate who has a period of unemployment to study for the CPA. I am considering to start studying for the exam but I know I would need to leave my employer in order to give 110%. I am contemplating the idea of at least passing one part while employed. Then leaving my employer to study FAR. I am considering to leave my current employer anyways, so it’s more of how my future employer would view that lapse.
