Can’t Hear You Over The Sound Of Your Ovaries, Part 5
Bigotry, Kansas, Tech Support, USA | Right | July 15, 2020
I am currently the only female technician at our small call center.

Me: “Thank you for calling [Company] help desk. May I get your phone number, please?”

The caller is also female.

User: “Yes, I need to talk to tech support.”

Me: “You’ve reached us! Can I get your phone number?”

User: “You are a technician?”

Me: “Yes, ma’am. What is your phone number, so I can get your account pulled and we can get started?”

User: “But you are a woman!”

Me: “Uh… yes. I am also a technician.”

User: “I thought you were just the secretary!”
