It's not really a frustration and setback with anxiety but I defiantly need some advice as to what to say.
I work in a car supplies and bike shop for any of you that may know of halfords I work there. Now As you can imagine it's a very male environment which is good because it helps me handle dealing with men which can be a big trigger for me so I'm getting better because of work.
there's only three female staff out of 15 staff. So I often have men either blank me when they see another male worker, say hi to me and speak to another male collage that they see (apparently I'm only a greater at the door) or even worse cut off after telling me what they need to interrupt another male member of staff who may or may not be busy at the time.
Many male colleges don't do anything about this most of the time so they don't upset the customer.
However I'm getting sick of having to put up with this discrimination which is what it is. I'm just as knowledgeable as male members of staff if not more so in some cases and yet the only obvious difference is I'm a girl. So what can I say to a costumer which is short, non offensive but gets the point across ?? (As well as not annoy my manager)
