i'm working on an engagement with a manager who is lesbian. i was caught completely off guard when she out of nowhere referred to her partner as a "she."

anyway, i had a really good first impression of her as a manager, but now i find myself putting less weight on what she says and giving her less credit.

i mean, i joke about it, but it makes me examine myself. sort of.


what's weird is i think i feel sorry for her too without even knowing it.


on a different note, my trip to st. louis has not been fun so far. at all. as i sat in a plane for 2 hours waiting for it to take off, stood in the bitter cold waiting for an airport shuttle, and got lost on the way to the hotel at midnight feeling desperately tired and hungry, i couldn't help but feel some resentment for what a glamorous life we live, us accountants.

who ever said accountants work behind a desk all day? can i please do that instead?

That is quite sad that your impression of her as a manager dropped due to her sexual orientation.

I agree with the other Anonymous... I thought this was 2005! Not very professional, in my opinion.
