    NO-Bender Challenge

    Hi Elsa- sorry to hear about your problems at work- I have aways had similar issues as the field I have been in for last 30+ yrs is totally male dominated and I am well-used to being in a minority!
    Also really weird as my 21 yr old daughter (left Uni this summer and has taken a full time job to pay the rent - not the job of her dreams- but fairly high profile)rang tonight to tell me about how she'd been bullied/patronised by a more senior male work colleague today(23yrs old) and had stood up to him (as she's a chip off the old block and dosen't see men as superiors unless they earn it) Fortunately both her managers (male) have backed her up- so all is ok- we hope! Unlike me she is tall and stunningly beautiful- which must help!
    whether she will be so successful at my age!!!!!! (would like to think so?)
    Anyway- Elsa don't let it get you down! you are bigger than" Mr Nasty" who sounds like a sad loser and has no real life other than trying to re-instate himself into somewhere which he knows he can't fit into full-time!
    Get back on track sooon - you deserve it and are worth it!
    love R X

      Hi Roberta and AC,
      Thank you so much for your kinds replies, I'm definatley in for AF December Challenge, I'm not sure I've got the confidence yet to start new threads, I don't know if I've been here long enough to do that and I'm not sure anyone would reply if I did, stupid I know, but I'm still learning about confidence now that I have some AF time behind me.
      Roberta - I'm sure if I was 20 years younger and 2 stone lighter I would have alot more support from the male managers than I do now. But thats life I guess. Good on your daughter, you have taught her well.
      Hopefully see you both on December's challenge thread, when I promise not to behave like an idiot and drink a bottle of wine because of some worthless moron.
      Take care:l

            Hi
            Much better tonight, so I promise not to rant at you, thanks. I've had a relaxing AF evening doing the accounts before I start Christmas shopping, what fun. I have bought 2 christmas cards and 1 christmas pressie so far, so I'm starting early this year.
            Hope everyone had a great day, take care:l
            Oh, and I have definately put on some weight since going AF (for most of the time anyway), I must stop with the choccies now, I can't afford new clothes and Christmas pressies.

                Hi Roberta, good to hear you are doing well into december, hope you enjoy your christmas parties.
                My December has started with a few bad days, which made me feel like crap, and I still want to drink, how stupid am I? I haven't given in these last 2 days, and I am back to feeling so tired all the time, just like my first attempt at going AF. I have a feeling December will be tough.
                I have cut back on the chocs though, I was getting through far too much, and with Christmas coming I thought it was time to cut back.
                Hope everyone is doing well, and enjoying the run up to Christmas.
                Take care:l
