A long time ago, when I wanted a job as the new hardware store manager, and the manager told me he didn't think I was suitable for the job, I just looked very humble, and very disappointed, and said, "I understand. You don't hire women for management positions." 😁😁😁
(The hardware store was within walking distance of my house, and my son could walk over to see me if he needed anything after school).
ALL of a sudden...it was like I was the PERFECT candidate!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I didn't HAVE to shake anyone's hand. 😉😉😉
