My old manager did this kind of shit to female coworkers all the time. He&#x27;d insist they put &quot;earmuffs&quot; on if he was going to say something he thought was too dirty&#x2F;inappropriate&#x2F;whatever. He was a sexist piece of garbage anyway, but he didn&#x27;t see how condescending and annoying it was for the women.<p>He did the same thing to female sales reps - insisted we give them extra help above and beyond what he&#x27;d want us to do for men. Very glad I got out of retail hell.
