“I hate working for women,” said a woman I’d just met at a party, after she’d unleashed about her female boss.

Apparently her boss sends her emails at 9pm and expects an immediate response. She’s regularly thrown into situations were she isn’t properly briefed and then is blamed when things go wrong. And her boss berates her in front of her colleagues.

Before I could say, “That sounds like Kevin Rudd,” the other women in the vicinity rushed to agree that male bosses are much better than female ones. I wanted to immediately down the nearest bottle of wine.
