“Attractive women make great salesmen”
A sad story. I took one hot rep to a group of 3 owners of a business. As she was sitting down she left out the loudest, wettest fart you ever heard. At first one one said anything then one started to crack up then all cracked up. She was mortified.
A couple days later I was on a conference call with her and the business owners and she was late to come to the phone. She finally picked it up and one of them said, “Is the “farter” on the line yet? You could hear her start to cry out of embarrasement
Yes she asked to be taken off the case.
It actually looks like a worthwhile book. I did some research and put it on my to-read list. I’m glad I caught this post.
He does sound like a complete @sshole.

You're not kidding. It's almost as though the real driver behind pushing women into STEM fields is to get the ugly ones out of fields that have pretty ones. I've seen too many that remind me of "Marcy" from the 'Peanuts' comic strip.
That's pretty much true for all the men I've worked with over the years as well. Most of them seem to have a raging case of the furniture disease.
But no job.
I had to look up "furniture disease" as I had never heard that one before - "when your chest slides into your drawers" (although Urban Dictionary defines it for women). I guess it's not as intuitive as "man-boobs / moobs". Either way, it made me laugh.

1) Was Apple wrong on this? Of course.
2) Why would anyone of at least average intelligence expect any tech company, but especially Apple, to be anything but a coven of wokery?
He didn’t say this stuff while he worked there. It was in a published book, from five years before, that they knew about before they hired him.
But....it’s a liberal shit show, and everyone knows it. Anybody that goes there expecting logic, justice, or tolerance, is too stupid to feel sorry for.
