Made me smile.


That's bull****. Not one of the non-Polish workers is drinking a cup of tea.


There is no female in charge who has qualified to be an engineer because
she is intelligent and able to study ,pass exams get a degree or two and
gets taken on as project manager.
Despite all the studying she has never got her hands dirty on a shovel in
her life and has no intention of doing so or mucking in with the lads when
things go wrong and it takes physical effort to get over a problem.
Usually dressed in an immaculate white set of overalls and a shiny
unscratched hard hat that looks good on a telly documentary about the
project even though it is running late,partly because woman despite what
they may think or wish have a long way to go to overturn what has been
natural for millennia and that blokes will respond to a another bloke
telling em to get a ****ing move on better than some lass sending an email
complaining that targets are in danger of slipping.

I've noticed how young female project managers are on TV, I've not yet seen young male project managers.
