The One Word Men Never See In Their Performance Reviews

[kdmorris]

1. I have often gotten reviews, over all positive, with a little character nugget in there

"more patient with others", "learn to control emotions". When I was training a fellow employee (a man), I was told that I needed to be more nurturing. That really burned me up. I KNEW he got paid more than me and he refused to work independently (he didn't do anything without asking me how to do it first, even things I'd told - and showed - him how to do 3 times before) and *I'm* the one that was told to work harder and do better.

But there's no double standard in the workplace... riiiigggghhhttt.
