@mn5 TBF, the company is pretty dumb for saying that is why she didnt get the job!
Yep, but I guess they can't say they didn't like her (I had an awful lot of words that I didn't use there).

True. They did open the door for some butthurtness.

@mn5 I applied for a job about 4 years ago, I got a rejection letter pretty promptly, I was told they had selected a better candidate that was better qualified; just the way it is in the big bad world.
Problem was, I knew they hadnt selected anyone, and I was told by 2 people that worked at the place, the 'boss' was intimidated by me being under them given they had applied for the job I had got and had been doing 6 years prior, I also know the person they ended up appointing, was not more qualified than me as well....now if only they had been more honest in thier letter I coulda told the world how my feelings were hurt!

It's not sexist, it's strongist.
OMG. Strongism is the worst!
I have just realised that I employ 8 people and 7 of them are women because they were best suited to their jobs and yet they all insist on saying "heavy lifting required" when we advertise for new staff - then they want another woman. And they only have to lift 10kg, And I shouldn't say that I employ them because I am just a bloke who carries heavy stuff not pays the wages. This patriarchy thing sucks!

@snowy did you ever encounter tallism?

Yep. I prefer to be referred to as "undershort" to butcher a word that you coined I think.
I have actually experienced the "hit the big bloke, it makes you tough" thing in pubs. On most occasions it ended badly for the undertall guy. Reach is a big thing when hitting people (and avoiding being hit). Quite often you can just hold the top of their head and keep them away - that really drives them wild - hilarious.
-
@snowy but it has to have 'ism' at the end to allow you to be offended, and others on your behalf.
-
@taniwharugby As mentioned above, I effectively have 8 wives. I am therefor not easily offended and explains why polygamy is a poor option for anyone. I understand why men in cultures that embrace it blow themselves up.
I also hang out here so thick skin is required. I would actually appreciate it if somebody could be offended on my behalf as I'm not very good at it.

The judge basically called him a liar too and said he sexually harassed McGregor .Good stuff.

@jegga It's a twofer - Craig and Slater with one shot.
Yeah but the judge said this about Slater
"I am satisfied Mr Slater is neither a compulsive nor a calculated liar," the judge said.

Damn, I really should read stuff before commenting.
Clearly the judge is an idiot.

Craig’s comments make him look like even more of a fruitcake and delusional.
