Yikes... Sorry to hear this :/
I've always disliked having male bosses, they always treated me different. :/
My ex boss had me "dog sit" aside from all my paralegal duties, it was super frustrating, he never said thank you.
I love dogs so much, and loved his dog, but once he left him with me for Christmas week (seriously last minute thing, barely any notice) and when he came back he didn't say thank you! He only said, "did u take him out today"....

Lmao, I would get 50 puppies if I could claim them as dependents haha!

So my coworker hasnt been able to come to work due to family problems the past week and a half. I think he's missed about five days in a row and he showed up today. I understand that family and health come first and I empathize with him. But I also have conflicting emotions. He never called in, would just send a quick text to our boss. This left me with the majority of the work. It's tax season. I'm in full work mode and I don't mind doing the extra work. But what bothers me is that my boss didn't say anything to this guy for not showing up and its business as usual... What about all the extra work I've done, or hours that I've put in? I feel like I'm being held to a differt standard sometimes. I don't know if its because I'm a woman and I work in a prominently male office, but I've really been pissed off about it. Just needed to rant and possibly hear a voice of reason. Someone just asked me if they could claim their dog as a dependent hboy:

That's annoying and I'm sorry you're having to deal with all this Mel. I think you have every right to feel how you're feeling. :hug:

That's a bit messed up. I'm going through a similar thing. It's okay for me to work short and train a person. But, this guy is traumatized at the level of work the job entails and won't budge. I have to do all of the work, while they talk sports and women. I've been in and out of the ER and doctors visits for my toddler. I had full documentation and missed only a day and a half. He didn't pay me using family leave. Instead he used one day of my vacation time and didn't pay the rest of the four hours. When I returned to work, he gave me the vacation calendar request for vacation hours I no longer really have because I only work PT. It was a wtf moment. Then I had to bust my butt working short, while they talked sports and women and I haven't slept in what feels like forever. All I can say is hang in there. Unfortunately, it will always be a man's world. We need to eat at the end of the day.

That's insane. I'm sorry you're going through a similar situation. I would like to say that its not always going to be a mans world, but then there's days like today where I get beyond frustrated. :sigh:

@CrimsonQuill have you tried the new Too Faced Hangover primer? I used it today with NARS sheer glow (which is a bit drying on me normally) and I have little to no dry patches.

I will have to try that! Truth be told, I've only used a primer once (some Mally primer) and my foundation separated something awful. I need to check into some primers. I've always debunked them but I guess I need to suck it up and buy one.

I tried it, I loved it until I smelled it.. ew lmao ( I am super sensitive to smells, but that was gross... like a rotten pina colada...)
Did anyone else's smell weird?

Also it broke me out so I stopped using it :/

It does smell funky, but I do like the way it feels. It hasn't broken me out yet, but I haven't worn it consistently.

I lOVED how it made my foundation look, it was exactly what I needed.
The scent kinda went away after like an hour for me, so that was good, but the next day I had some blemishes.
I don't have acne or break out normally, only when I have an allergy to something... so :/ it made me really sad :/

Sorry you're going through this Mel. It's just wrong on so, so many levels. You have every right to feel the way that you do. All of that, and stupid questions too!
