Handle them? LOL--I come up with most of them. Yes, I'm just one of the guys, and we all feed off each other in the humor department. Everybody -- the bosses, the office people and the maintenance staff have nicknames. We prank and joke each other constantly and enjoy it immensely. I learned a long time ago if you are going to dish it out you'd better be able to take it. And at our company we get lots of chances to put that into practice. It gives us a sense of camaraderie, and we all know that all the others "has our back".

Yes, in order to fit in I have to be. Unless a female customer comes in I usually don't see many girls during my shift.
I always have something to say and come back with great ones, I wouldn't be one of the guys if I didn't. I have also notice the guys are well behaved when there are "ladies" around and expect me to be as well!

well, i am a stay at home mom now. however, when i worked and went to school i always got along with the guys better. we as women are too sensitive. it probably helped that i have 4 brothers though too. one of the things my husband loves about me is my quick come backs!

I can stand up with the best of the boys. I can also drink most of them under the table too.

Yes, yes, no, yes. I am horrible at comebacks, I always think of a witty one, like, 5 minutes later.

I can pretty much handle myself, and I am great with the comebacks.
