Women on top

A woman is a woman's worst enemy, I've heard. At the risk of annoying my species, I think it holds true and is in fact a good thing, especially if practised at the workplace. Here are four reasons why girl on girl (haha) increases productivity:

1. Women bosses are less likely to squirm when other women employees cry. Women cry all too easily and nobody better than another woman knows that. Men, worried as hell over sexual harassment at the workplace allegations, generally prefer to back off when a woman employee starts to bawl. But women, obviously privy to the functioning of the eye faucet, do not flinch. Well at least in most cases. Try crying after your boss yells at you over skipping a deadline or losing a stapler. A male boss would just throw his hands up and then sulk. A woman on the contrary will hand you tissue while STILL yelling at you.

2. I know too many male bosses who don't know how to deal with the "it's that time of the month" excuse. I also know too many female employees who use that excuse to slip out of work early. While there's no denying it can be awkward, having a female boss means keeping tabs on how often that excuse is used. Nobody has peddled MeftalSpas as much as female bosses have. Swallow the pill and get back to work.

3. A woman's natural instinct is God-gifted. Obviously a female boss can sense when an intra-office affair is in the offing. So what does she promptly do? (Especially if she isn't one of the involved parties) She thwarts it at every available opportunity. How is that even a good thing? Firstly, it cuts out gossip time. Secondly, the others won't witness temper tantrums or bear the burden of extra work thanks to some lovers spat.
 

4. A dominating woman (read boss) has the natural ability to bring another person's ego crashing to the ground. When you're devoid of ego, you start to take less offence to what's being said. In the process, women discover that they can have a sense of humour too and will in turn not sulk about every joke on female drivers. This new-found sense of humour makes you less angry with the world. Voila! You're a lot happier than you thought.
