I work for a small commercial painting company, and I'm the only woman here. I have more "big business" experience than the rest of the guys here, but I feel like my ideas aren't taken seriously. For example, we are having chronic problems with an employee, so I suggested we demote him. The owner and general manager looked at me like they wished I would shut up and then started talking about the idea like it was their own brain child. I was the last to find out that the time of our meeting today was changed, even though I'm the one who organizes all the meetings. I'm really getting annoyed! Some of the guys even say stuff just to piss me off, like women are inferior, go get me lunch, etc. How can I get more respect at work without crying harrassment? I love my job but I'm tired of being treated like I don't have valid ideas because I don't have a d**k!!!
**I often stand up for myself in these situations, I'm looking for longer term solutions
