Feminist rant
So I have a completely valid request for a system configuration that provides better data allowing me to do my job better aboard the boat. I ask this, and they refuse to see how this is good and useful. Three days later a guy I talked to asks on my behalf, and poof! they change the configuration so I get my data.
I go to training meetings for a week every two months for a year and a half and don't get on the mailing list for action items until a guy I work with asks the guys who mails it out to include me. Stupid new employee goes to his first week alone while I'm at DASO, his second ever after training under me, and he gets on the distribution list right away.
I am thinking I should start keeping better track of these little things. I'm growing more bitter and cynical and I see myself getting defensive about everything. I miss college where the world was 50/50 and professors actually saw that I do have a brain and know how to use it.
