TLDR OP IS A FAGGOT
I didn't say a word to her, I was sat their listening
then leave?
Then came the questions from the audience, some highlights:
> "As a woman studying for a degree in a creative industry, which is viewed as a more feminine industry that STEM, I feel that we don't need to assert ourselves as much, so how should I prevent myself from being excluded because I am a woman because I don't need to assert myself as much?"
> Even Cordelia, rent-seeker extrodinaire was taken aback but the retardedness of this question
> Which of course the simple solution is "Try, fail, try again and don't expect to be handed life on a silver platter", but we were in a room fully of middle class/upper middle class feminists, so that was off the table.
> Frizzy haired mulatto chick, with a shit eating grin puts her hand up
> "I could bet my bollocks that she is going to be rent seeking from a racial angle"
> "What are you doing to ensure more people of colour, and women of colour especially are hired at your business"
> All white panel stuttering and coming up with some wishy-washy answer about how great it is to work with a diverse group of people
> Not: "If you have the right credentials, we'll hire you"
> Cherry on the cake
> At the end Cordelia was sharing yet more "sexist anecdotes", including:
> "I worked for a social media team an a government official came in and all the time he was there he would talk constantly about his opinions and what he thought should be happening..."
> Fails to see the irony slapping her in the face
> "...so I spoke with my boss the next day and explained that this made me feel uncomfortable"
> Honestly believes an office intern in a market team has equal authority that a government offical on a visit when helping to shape discussion
> However, it was not all bad. I did speak at the end with the STEM guys who cleared a few issues up with the application process, and techincal aspects of the roles, which is what I wanted to know, so it wasn't a complete shitshow
I sometimes read stories on here and think "Nah, this reads like a collection of in-jokes and memes", until occasionally you get a reminder that these dim cunts are real.
Let's hear your uni stories Jow Forums
>someone wrote this
I was there for the panel, as they were relevant. Plus, is it wise to block out your enemies just because you do not like them?
Welcome to Jow Forums, people write stories
i couldn't make up that story even if you'd pay me a million dollars
Things like this happen bro. Go on any uni campus for a while and see for youself
>Go on any uni campus for a while
nah thanks, i moved rurally with 25, right when i was able to afford it.
What is your postgrad in
Yeah, they actually do this type of gay shit.
Throw feces at the monkey.
Without being too specific, it geophysics with a focus on data processing for oil companies
OP here, I should have titled this "Uni stories"
Got any stories of your own?
Oh shut the fuck up. None of this happened, and you are a basement dwelling NEET incel butthurt about women. Dumb fucktard.
It's very predictable, isn't it
What is? That OP is a lying faggot?
Care for a brief overview in q-adjusted Full Waveform Inversion, or would you prefer to keep believing that it is impossible to disagree with mainstream narratives and not be a social outcast?
Exactly. All the same unsupported talking points, again and again. Shame it was at that companies visit. I assume it is a box-ticking exercise to please HR
>be me
>26 year old controls engineer
>have nigger for a boss
>nigger talks shit about his own boss behind his back
>be in a meeting
>I say something that outs the nigger for the shit he says behind his boss without outright saying it. basically I just give him the rope he used to hang himself
>Now I'm the boss of my department with a pay raise.
>the nigger is out of a job
I love being a jew, I don't even try and I'm still better than of you goys.
What I believe, is that you are a basement dweller. And all those " Blue haired femminists" are probably much better qualified for aby kind of Job than you.
Stop lying, you fucking retard.
None of that shit happened nigger.
I'm with you on better maternity leave. It would be an incentive for women to have more children and may even push them into staying home with them.
Your missing foreskin can't be made up for by tendies.
I can buy more tendies than you user.
fuck off bot. if you don't want to read green text fucking go back to upvoting fellow roasties on plebbit
So it really is difficult to think outside your own worldview. Kind of explains that annoyed tone you have going on there.
> Any job?
So tell me, how would a degree in gender studies prepare with a knowledge of seismic de-ghosting to improve data quality for a 4D seismic survey?
How would whining about whatever "privilege" is the new flavour of the week help to in error analysis, or a parameterisation exercise to test the limits of a survey?
Do they even do any maths?
>postgrad
OH NO NO NO NO NO
I am surprised by his reaction. I don't actually see people getting that hissy on Jow Forums
What made you want to do post grad work? I'm thinking about it but I really don't want to take out more loans.
its a bot/shill/child wanting to "piss off the nazis on Jow Forums" poster...ignore.
Nobody cares about your made up shit my dude. It’s literally the same as all the SJW made up shit.
I noticed (See top of the thread) a lot of them jump on the thread at once to try and discredit it.
OK, this isn't the greatest story ever told, but it seemed a disproportionation reaction, in terms of attitude and moreso for the speed of the replies.
I am getting the feeling lately that lefties are trying hard to "change the Overton window of Jow Forums". Essentially trying to change what people think of acceptable and "cool" here
> Based truth-based STEM bro.
All too rare on Jow Forums, vs:
> conspiracy theories, & un-self-consciously making the same kind of arguments the other guys do.
You see what I mean? This poster comes back to the thread as he is invested in painting it in a bad light, rather than "just ignoring this "bullshit story" "
It's a discord raid. Been going on for a few days now, don't seat it. I liked your story and have experienced similar shit , including a professor that offered extra credit for trying out hard drugs and writing a report on it, E.C. for an orgy +report and E.C. for joining her antifa group. Fortunately she was fired after I reported her
baby got triggered LOLOLOLOLOLOOLOLOLOOLOLOLOLOLOLLO
They are here forever. Start a redpill thread.
bamp
Also, protip for avoiding SJWs in the workplace:
Go for smaller companies. They have more risks that established multinationals, and will less readily let SJW types in to their ranks. I was talking to a rep from a seismic processing company the other day that says he personally makes sure that anyone trying to shoehorn their own politics in to a business is not hired by a the company. Didn't directly say rent-seekers, but he seemed to be getting at that, plus corporate politics.
Then again, I would love to work for ExxonMobil/Shell/BP/etc and help with the hiring and firing. I would personally search out all candidates on social media and scrap any applications for "x bullshit reason because my authority" if I found evidence of a strong leftie/progressive agenda, and prioritise any with similar worldviews (Start our own "long march through the institutions")
Shills are always hyperbolic, dead giveaway.
They will not be themselves in a year though. I hold my hands up and admit that I first came to Jow Forums to "troll right wing nutjobs" when I was a basic bitch liberal.
My redpill folder is a bit dry, but thwere was a guy that used to post a daily redpill threads. They could help immensely. }}Fancy carrying the torch?
You want to be a normie you gotta play the game anons. Otherwise start your own business or work for a small company.
Fuck! What program were you studying?
...
Tbf, a lot of guys in my field essentially do just that. High-level consultancy stuff with 10-15 years of experience.
Geophysicists in oil get paid £30-40/$40-50 starting, rising quickly after a few years, but consultancy...that is where people make serious money...£100-250k/year
Ignore the bullshit. If she worked in 25 industries before 25 it means that she is shit at everything she has done. Nothing they said was of any value.
Doing God's work lad. Make a habit of it, don't let these fags ruin this place. convert them
I got home and spoke to my gf on chat about this, and she said exactly the same thing.
I think she thought that "25 industries before 25" would sound catchy and filled with worldly experience.
It is not like they were even rigorous positions, or hard labour that will have build her character, it was literally all just hipster-tier casual work, "travelling jobs", and intern roles.
And yet she thought she had the authority to tell people how business should be run (Tbf thought, she was likely a Marxist, so is there any wonder?)
It was a writing requirement type course. I write a lot of essays so I figured an short-stories course over the summer would be a nice change. Turns out it wasn't. I am a polisci and CS double major.
I Said shut the fuck up, you fucktarded, cretinous piece of fucking lying shit. You have no Job, you dwell in basement and any sjw is more valuable to society than you. Dumb fucktard.
You die not study shit btw. Aby dumb fuck can literally go to wiki and Google all those smart words.
Brown nigger "huehuehue" sub Human Got triggered.
You are lying son of a bitch, nigger.
>Posts with different ID
pathetic
What is with this temper? Why does it make you made that the people who you don't like are not always the stereotypical bogeymen that are so easy to critique?
PS, you are right, anyone can copy-paste smart words. Understanding them is another matter altogether.
Why don't you go and read about some of these things, calm down and come back when you're feeling perkier.
you misspelled tramp
>a man talking over you
This one always kills me. It's been this way since long before feminists decided they knew how things were. People talk over other people ALL the fucking time in meetings. Your particular junk has precisely ZERO to do with it.
