Reply #35: Best bosses I ever had were female.

[ieoeja]

Admittedly, the worst were as well. Some of my female bosses appeared to overcompensate, trying to out tough the guys. My ex-wife was a lot like that. She could never get the nuances of being tough without being a bully.

But most of my female bosses did a much better job of listening to me and standing up for me. It has typically been more difficult changing a man's opinion. And they don't take care of anybody but #1.
