“By giving women training to sue a company for a 'hostile environment' if someone tells a dirty joke, we are training women to run to the Government as Substitute Husband (or Father). This gets companies to fear women, but not to respect women. The best preparation we can give women to succeed in the workplace is the preparation to overcome barriers rather than to sue: successful people don't sue, they succeed.” PeopleIfsGivingGovernmentRunningFatherCompanySuccessfulEnvironmentSucceedHusbandTrainingJokesOvercomingPreparationDirtyBarriersSubstitutesSuccessful PeopleWorkplaceHostileRespect WomenDirty JokesHostile Environment Book:The Myth of Male Power: Why Men Are the Disposable Sex Source: The Myth of Male Power: Why Men Are the Disposable Sex

“If the movie is terrible you can have fun. You can joke about it and have a ball. The movie is already sort of established as a kind of extraordinary piece of work even though it hasn't opened yet to the public. It is harder because you can't go against it and you can't be interesting. You have to go with the flow. Although one is very happy to be in it, it is sort of hard to talk about it. It is hard to talk about successful. It is much easier to talk about failure.” IfsKindHardFunInterestingSuccessfulPiecesTerribleEasierJokesFlowBallsHarderExtraordinaryHaving FunVery Happy Author:Christopher Plummer
