1. Tell you what's even worse than that

When I worked for Boeing, there were groups of men offered lucrative assignments working in Saudi - and women, of course, could not be offered those assignments - which had one whole hell of a lot of pay incentives attached - because women couldn't be put in a position where the SA men might have to be confronted with the idea of women having, like, real jobs.

Used to piss me off something fierce.
