Brand awareness gets you subconsciously

There's a lot of micro-aggressions and straight up aggressions in this post, but honestly your comment strikes the biggest nerve for me. It genuinely shows that a portion of the world don't consciously see women as business owners
Yikes dude, hope you got a dashcam
Same boat. I'm yet to find a good response to that. On one hand, I want to be like "haha yea", but on the other hand, I want to be modest and not comment on it.. Which is just like an awkward silence. I usually just say something like "oh yea I used to live here" but even that feels like oversharing :p
So I tend to dress "well". I'm not great at fashion, but I shave every morning, force myself to spend a bit of money on nice tshirts, etc.
On the weekends though, I let it all go. I go out to the store in my PJs, I don't shave, I wear my hat and hoodie up, and to be honest look a bit like a thug. I notice people on the street are a little less comfortable walking by, however...
One thing that stood out insanely was the grocery store. When I dress like a homeless person, it is night and day difference:
- Cashier keeps the checkout stuff closer to them
- While my card transaction is pending, if I start loading stuff in my bag they're like "oh, oh wait.. It's still pending"
- Even when I start the small-talk ("How is your day going?"), responses are short
When I dress well:
- Cashier doesn't mind when I start loading my backpack even before paying
- Cashiers always smile and ask how my day is
I was planning on writing a blog post about it (plug to !dginovker_blog@lemmy.ml), but wanted to get more data points first
Holy crap, I didn't believe you until I read this.
I hope future Google searches for Tavleen Tarrant and Suzanne Gamboa show this comment. Those journalists are disgusting scum of human beings. I would be ashamed to work at the same company as them.
These numbers seem grossly inflated. How was the study conducted?
Edit:
However, on average 67% of those polled in the Blind survey said they were likely to join a union and 73% said that unions “mostly helped.”
Eh that's reasonable. Blind (the app) is pretty good, alibet toxic
I love going to the office. I started renting a place nearby to do just that.
But I don't want my coworkers to be forced to show up. That's silly.
At my old company I offered to help with the hiring. I said we should make job postings and just see if a great candidate applies.
My CEO told me "oh, we already have some postings. Let me give you the credentials".
I log in to (BreezyHR). There's over 2,000 applicants in the last 6 months. Tailored resumes, cover letters, everything. All the effort people put in to applying. Never even acknowledged by someone at the company. Reading the cover letters from people saying it would be such a great fit was kind of sad.
