@Sheril Description (Alt Text) can be improved a bit. All these white men are formally look the same, but behave very differently.
What seems to be common for all them that all they see this interview as a boring chore.
One read his phone, other, sleep, other sit in informal pose.
What is common between them is that they do not want anyone join to their organization. What they dream about is this formality to end sooner.
Such picture happens in frozen and dead organizations. (large corp & gov).

AstronomerNick,

@Sheril Just tell them that you'll buy company stock if hired😆

That image reminds me of this video from Loboda, “Boom Boom.” I don’t understand the lyrics, but the gist, maybe.

It opens with a quote attributed to Simone De Beauvoir:

«La notion d’harmonie est une des clés de l’univers féminin:
Elle implique la perfection dans l’immobilité, la justification
immédiate de chaque élément à partir du tout et sa participation passive à la totalité…»

@Sheril If you are a chef or a house repairman and an employer asks you for a CV you will know they are only interested in numbers.

@Sheril This is rarely a thing at good tech companies. While there may be 6-12 people tag teaming interviewees. It's less about stupid questions like this and more about explaining the ARP protocol.

At one startup my qa director was an animal. She worked right up until her delivery. Had the kid over the weekend and came in the next Monday. Crazy.

BlahBlah,

@Sheril In my head it's the ultra-competent, smart woman, asked these mediocre, entitled, suited men, what can they bring to her company...
Let's turn the table and make it a reality!

The idiot on the end with his hands behind his head, like:
Well! I’m waiting

Gah.. some people are clueless that women - and people of color - can bring strength and success to their company. I think they’re intimidated.

I’m at an age where NO one wants me simply because of - like I’m suddenly of no value, and my knowledge and vast experiences are, I guess, out of date?

@Sheril this reminds me of an ex-gf who was asked to join a panel discussion in Switzerland about "Die Feminine" all the panelist were men and it occurred to them they might need to have one actual woman on the panel, so she said no. that is why she was my "girlfriend"

sonlightlife,

@Sheril Much needed feminine touch! 😊❤️

@Sheril needs and expectations of morality, kindness, and equality along with a set income tied directly to the c-suites compensation packages.
