Is it just me or is this just a truly deplorable (and laughable) sign of the post-modern culture we live in? I received this in my email box:

Found this email from an woman who worked at an ex-employer of mine. Exactly what I said previously, is it not?

For those who would like to participate in the recipe exchange and get some new recipes… please try to bring your recipe in tomorrow (Friday). You can bring them to me, and I will put them all together and pass out copies to everyone on Monday. If anyone forgets tomorrow, just bring it on Monday - that is OK too.

1. Men communicate better. Women do communicate better in most other areas of life. Men are direct, to the point, and make few allowances for failure or emotional differences that can’t be tied to logical results and behaviors. Phrases like “I just think…” and “We’re all trying…” are not uncommon from women when attempting to persuade.

2. Men come to work to work. Women come to work to, well, be there. But men work for more than money. They are there to work - not socialize, not make new friends, not share photos of children, not plan lunches that involve tupperware. In fact, most men yearn greatly for a sense of accomplishment more than anything. Some women do come to work to work, but most often it is a form of escape. They are not there to build, to create, to leave legacies behind.
