:roll: How would you respond to male truckers/coworkers who say to you 'the boss likes you only cause he wants to do you?'

 

honestly I wouldn't respond to them nor give them the time of day from here on out. All they did was show you how insecure they are about Who they are and their abitity to do the job. Obviously your a threat in their mind, so clearly You have the power to show them 'why' you were hired and that your a darn good driver and employee. ........... I've heard these kind of comments in times past and at first it made me mad. Then after thinking about it - realized they only showed their true colors. Keep your head up high and walk proud. :wink:

 

I am keeping my head high and am keeping quiet because i know something they don't know yet and won't for 3 more weeks i am their new boss :wink: I really just want to know how other women truckers would handle it. Thanks for your reply

 

Geez, I hate when guys cant deal with such minor issues.......EGO!

Saying nothing has more of an impact......and in 3 weeks you will be happier that you didnt say anything.

Congrats on your promotion too!

 

Thank you sometimes silence can be its own reward

 

I agree with For4Roses. I'd just keep quiet and not say a word. I wouldn't stoop to their level or give them the satisfaction of a response. I find you acheive more by saying nothing. It speaks volumnes. Congrats on your new promotion Malekat. Drive safe everyone.

 

congrats on the promo...



And those guys are just scared of what you have earned. Im a man and have no issues asking a lady driver for help if I need it weather it be something i dont understand and totally miss the bus on or if its to help me blindside back gender plays no favs out here.

 

Thank you for congrats on promo. But they do not know that i am their new boss yet so i don't think they are jealous of what i have earned. But the way they are behaving will have an impact on them when they do find out. You ever heard the saying be nice to people because you do not know who they are :wink:

 

While they may not know they can see that you are out there busting hump and getting the atten of upper mgt while they are just sliding by thinking if they do the min amount of work they will be worked up the ladder.


Remember tho just cause they wronged you dont take it out on them when your boss cause mgt sees that too. You just have to show them that your the better person and keep it to bizness.

I wish you luck 8)

 

oh no i wont take it out on them but i will get huge satisfaction in knowing that they know i know what they are really like/about and watching those huge egos take a little deflating :wink:
