Paco: "Thank you for calling shitnet, my name is Paco. How can I help you today?"
Cust: "Hi, I want to connect two computers at once to my modem."
Paco: "Which model do you have?"
Cust: "I dunno, I'm at work."
Paco: "Oh. Well, ok, we can..."
Cust: "I don't know all that stuff, I'm a woman! *giggle*" <--- Yes, she actually said that and giggled.
Paco: "I'm sorry, that excuse doesn't work on someone raised with 20-some years of womens rights movement." <-- Yes, I actually said this.

The rest of the rant that immediately followed closing that call remains on my journal, since it's more than a little... Pacoish.

Suffice to say I'm a strong believer in womens rights, and with that, womens responsibilities.

I think the most frightening moment of my life was being on a plane with a woman pilot. Not because she was a woman, but because of the giggle at the end of her announcements.
