My height, 1.95 m, and my position in the company, managing director-strategy director, may not evoke the image of a victim, but it I do happen to be one

I have noticed lately that my female colleagues in the office, with whom I have been working and creating together for over 15 years now, have a very intimidating attitude towards me

I will give you tangible and simple examples

Repeatedly, Mrs. N.L. with a sharp manner and an almost murderous look imposes on me and demands internal meetings in the office

When I happen to bother a graphic designer for more than 10 minutes, she comes and looks at me again with the same aforementioned glare

On the other side of the office, Mrs. N.M. permanently possessed by a justified and innate bossy attitude made a scene today, hence the writing of this article

In a conversation I had with my colleague T.T., who possesses an innate kindness and generosity, about a rare film he found for me and I asked him to save it on a USB stick

Mrs. N.M. interjected with her signature attitude and told me to “bring the USB sticks from home”

She obviously meant by her right that I should remember to bring some of the USB sticks from the dozens that I have accumulated, kindly provided by my company

Ms. C.D., in addition to her strong sense of style and borderline snobbery, whenever I ask her for anything, I almost always receive a distinct aggression

I suffer these pains almost every day

With loads of love and the strong sense of team that we have, all of the above cause us intense laughter and excellent moments of humor

No humor No honey

P.S.: I do not even want to comment on the tremendous bullying that I have been subjected to for years by my greatest weakness, Mrs. S.P.
