I have a lot of respect for female managers, even the ugly ones

Why does the bride wear white? Because all household appliances come in that colour.

I think they mean putting the microwave on for 5 minutes. Though even that is beyond the technical capacity of my gf.

Working in Scandinavia, the women in IT are all hot and know what they're about. Which is real nice.

Must a different Scandinavia from the one I left.

...can be very good. But as managers they stink especially when they've been parachuted in without having worked up from the ranks. No sense of logic at all, too emotional and manipulative, not to mention just plain silly.
I'm going to so enjoy exposing this one

Plus they've got high-pitched whiny voices.

My last permie manager was a woman, and she was the most able, personable and focused manager I've known.
Generalisation are both unwise and lazy.
Having said that, she was quite fit, so that may have coloured my view.

Agreed. I was being tongue-in-cheek.

I've only ever had one woman manager and she was a psycho..... I prefer working for men... less bitchy (mostly!).

Does anyone know of any fit birds in IT or was that why the position of IT admin was invented?

I've "known" one or two...

Hardly - she's crap and is already on her way to a big cock-up. I intend to help her on her way.
If she was less arrogant and ignorant I would have helped positively.

Are you sure she's not your ideal woman?
