But then I think, the women are maybe lucky if they can avoid that and work somewhere better.FrauTechhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15312215415796165866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-789440268562059889.post-21948182693087112392011-01-29T21:09:52.259-08:002011-01-29T21:09:52.259-08:00I overheard a secretary complaining that a woman w...I overheard a secretary complaining that a woman who was offered a faculty position was "demanding too much" and that her current salary in Really Expensive Location should not be considered. The woman had family in the area and research interests nearby, so she would have taken the job, but she got so fed up with the negotiations that she declined. One month later, I heard she accepted a fac position at Leafy School. I then told the secretary that a much better school got the woman. She's since published *more* GlamMag papers, and became a rockstar. And the dude without GlamMag pubs that the dept ultimately hired was at the SAME SALARY that was "too demanding" for the woman. He's still a nobody. <br /><br />Insecure depts have no problem replacing a woman with another woman whoisnotabitch. But it takes some serious shit for them to replace a man with a woman. She must be MegawattStarWhoIsNotABitch.<br />jcAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
