The manager dismisses her abilities, makes inappropriate comments, and treats her unfairly, believing their position gives them the right to act without consequences.
What the manager doesn’t realize is that the person quietly observing every interaction is the CEO herself, carefully documenting the behavior and the workplace culture around her.
As the truth comes to light, the powerful lesson about equality, inclusion, and the importance of respecting every employee becomes undeniable, leaving the manager exposed and accountable for their actions.

00:03Wow. Good evening. Welcome in. Thank you. We have a reservation. It should be under Reeves.
00:10Yes, right here. Reeves Party 2. Perfect timing. Wonderful. It smells incredible in here already.
00:17Right? The kitchen's been doing something with the short rib tonight. Follow me and I'll get you settled.
00:25I'll take it from here. No, I've got it. Go check on table 7. They've been waiting. Now. Evening. How
00:34many tonight?
00:35Just the two of us. Yeah, and will she be needing any special arrangements? Because we have some options in
00:41terms of seating and support, but it's limited.
00:43My table's fine. The same as anyone else. Alright, we'll get you set up. Come on. Follow me.
00:51Okay. Take a seat. Take a seat. Make your time. Okay. Boss man. Tonight we have pan-seared halibut with
01:06a lemon caper reduction, a dry-aged rib eye served with truffle butter and finger-linked potatoes, and the chef's
01:12pasta, handmade butternut squash, and brown butter.
01:15The halibut's been very popular. Any questions I can help you with?
01:19I'm sorry. Can you direct that to both of us for both presents?
01:22Of course. Of course. So, any questions? No? Wonderful? Alright, your server will be right with you. Go ahead.
01:31Alright. Hi. I'm Maya. I'll be taking care of you this evening. Can I start you both off with something
01:37to drink?
01:38Please. What are you pouring by the glass tonight?
01:41I've got a really nice Cote de Rhone that came in this week. Light, a little peppery, good with almost
01:47everything on the menu, and then a Vionnet if you're feeling white.
01:52Oh. Um, yes. The Vigionnet, definitely.
01:55Wrong for me. And what do you recommend today?
01:58Short rib. Eight hour braids. I've seen people go quiet on the first bite.
02:04Oh. Okay. Well then, the short rib it is.
02:07Same. Short rib for the bowl.
02:09I'll put those in. I'll be right back with your drinks.
02:14She looked at me when she talked to me. Apparently, that's the bar tonight.
02:21Uh, just checking in. Is the seating comfortable? We have a higher chair in the back if the table hide
02:26is giving any issues.
02:27Um, I'm fine. Thank you.
02:31Sometimes guests don't want to ask.
02:33She answered the question.
02:35Oh. Of course, bro. I just want to make sure that the guests with certain needs are properly looked after.
02:41Um, do all of your female guests get this level of attention, or is it just the ones with a
02:48cane?
02:49I hope you both enjoy your evening.
02:53He couldn't even answer that.
02:55No. He cannot.
02:57Is there anything you two need?
02:59Oh, um, we're fine.
03:01You know what, can I ask you something?
03:04Of course.
03:05Um, is he always like that?
03:09Mmm, he's very hands-on.
03:11Yeah, we understand what that means.
03:13Is it worse with women?
03:15I can only speak to my experience working here.
03:18How long have you been working here?
03:19Fourteen months.
03:20And before this?
03:21Floor supervisor at the Meridian downtown, but they cut the program.
03:26Half the floor went with it.
03:28Okay, uh, just wanted to check in. How's everything tasting?
03:32We haven't received the food yet, James.
03:34Oh, right, right, right.
03:34Well, look, this place has been running 11 years.
03:37I've been on this floor for seven, nada.
03:39Built the whole service from scratch.
03:42What made you want to go into restaurant management?
03:44I just kind of fell into it, started busting tables at 19, worked every position.
03:48You learn it from the ground up, or you don't really know it at all.
03:52Do you find staff retention is good here?
03:54Yeah, we do fine.
03:56The owner is actually in acquisition talks right now, which is exciting.
04:01New chapter for the place.
04:02I think it'll be a strong investment for whoever comes in.
04:05You've got quite the advocate here.
04:07She doesn't let anything slide, does she?
04:09I'm not anyone's advocate.
04:10I'm a woman at dinner.
04:12I speak because I'm a person at this table.
04:15If you have something to say, you can say it to my face.
04:19Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
04:21I didn't mean any offense.
04:22I admire the spirit.
04:23I just...
04:23Don't do that.
04:25Do what?
04:26Call it spirit.
04:27Like I'm a child who's being plucky.
04:31I'm telling you to speak to me like an adult because I am one.
04:34That's not spirit.
04:36That's just basic.
04:38You got it all wrong here, okay?
04:40I'm just asking everyone to keep the tone light.
04:42I mean, we're all having a nice evening here, right?
04:45Why don't you just go check on something in the back?
04:48Sure.
04:51Spirit.
04:51That word always gets used by men who want you to perform badly so they can explain why they were
04:56right.
04:57Ten more days and none of this is his floor to manage.
05:01Ten days for what?
05:02I will tell you after the short rib.
05:09Alright, how was everything?
05:12The short rib was everything you promised.
05:15It always is.
05:17How long have you been doing this work?
05:19Not just here, just in general.
05:21Since I was 20.
05:23I started front of house, worked my way up, did a stint managing events for the hotel group.
05:29Came back to the floor because I missed it.
05:32Are you happy here?
05:33I am good at what I do here.
05:35The kitchen's strong and the regulars are lovely.
05:38Wasn't my question though.
05:40I've worked in better environments.
05:43You've been great.
05:44We'll take the check whenever you're ready.
05:46Okay, you got it.
05:49You're gonna do it now?
05:51Oh, no point at waiting.
05:53Hey you.
05:54Hey, uh.
05:56What's up?
05:57Sit down.
05:59I've got a full floor to-
06:00Sit.
06:01Down.
06:06Okay.
06:08What's up?
06:09I'm not a regular guest.
06:11I'm the majority stakeholder of the investment group that has been in acquisition talks with the owner of this restaurant
06:17for the past six weeks.
06:18The deal closes in ten days.
06:23I come in unannounced, before any close, every time, without exception, because I want to see the floor exactly as
06:31it actually runs.
06:32Not as it runs when someone knows I'm watching.
06:35Tonight was that busy.
06:36I wasn't aware, if I had known.
06:39I know you weren't aware.
06:40That's the point.
06:41You seated us at the worst table in the room.
06:45You ran through the specials without acknowledging her one time.
06:48And when she asked you to speak to both of us, you smiled and you left.
06:52You pulled Maya off of this table to keep her from doing her job well.
06:55You kept offering seating adjustments after Claire declined.
07:00Directing them to me, then, rather than to her.
07:04And you told me I had quite the advocate implying that her speaking up for herself was excessive.
07:08That's a pattern.
07:10Not a difficult evening.
07:11Sir, I was trying to be a con.
07:14Okay, the cane, you know, I just want to make sure that she had everything she needed.
07:20I'll stop you there.
07:22I'm a licensed accessibility consultant.
07:24What you did tonight wasn't accommodation.
07:27It was assumption.
07:29You assumed I needed special handling without asking.
07:32You offered adjustments, I declined, and you kept directing them to my partner after I said no.
07:39Each of those is documentable.
07:41Some are actionable.
07:44Intention isn't the standard.
07:46Impact is.
07:47I spent the whole evening being treated like a problem to manage, not a guest.
07:52The acquisition goes through, the owners get paid, but the management structure dissolves on day one.
07:59Your position doesn't transfer.
08:01You'll be gone before the ink is dry.
08:03This industry is smaller than it looks from inside of one restaurant.
08:07I'll be honest with every contact that I have about the things that I saw tonight.
08:11I mean, come on man, over one dinner?
08:15This is my career we're talking about.
08:16You made choices all evening, and I'm making one for you right now.
08:24Actually, Maya, come here please.
08:30The incoming ownership needs a floor manager.
08:32I've watched you all evening, the way you handled this table, stay professional under pressure, and you treated my partner
08:38like a person from the moment she walked in.
08:40That's the whole job.
08:42So if you wanted it, it's yours.
08:43Real title, real salary, no questions.
08:48I'll be available starting Monday.
08:51Thanks. I'll be in touch.
09:04This is crazy.
09:11Oh, good afternoon.
09:12How can I help you?
09:13Hi, I'm Sophia Dunham.
09:15I have a three o'clock interview for the senior software developer position with Mr. Liam Thompson.
09:20Of course. Let me check that for you.
09:24So, you know what I told her, Brad?
09:26What?
09:26I told her that the server room isn't a place for manicures and high heels.
09:31Can you believe that? Really?
09:33No, I mean, women in tech.
09:34It's like watching a fish try to climb a tree.
09:36They just don't get it.
09:38This is crazy.
09:40There you go, ladies.
09:41Hey, wear those beautiful smiles.
09:43Come on, smile. Brighten the place up a little bit.
09:46That's what I like to see in the workplace, a little positive energy.
09:50Here, hold that for me for a while.
09:51Be sure to put it somewhere safe, huh?
09:54Oh, and do it with a smile, please. Thank you.
09:58Yeah, that's better.
10:00Women are so much prettier when they smile.
10:03It's like sunshine in the office.
10:05Absolutely.
10:06You know, there's nothing worse than a woman with a sour face.
10:11I mean, it brings the whole team morale down a little bit.
10:16Jenny, is this my three o'clock interview?
10:19Yes.
10:20This is Sophia Dunham.
10:21Well, well.
10:22Here's another one thinks she can hang with the big boys in tech.
10:26This should be interesting.
10:28Follow me and remember what I said about that smile.
10:30You're going to need it where we're going.
10:33Good luck in there.
10:34You're going to need it.
10:56All right, first things first.
10:58You need to smile more.
11:01I can't have someone with a sour face representing our tech department.
11:04It affects the team dynamics.
11:06I'm excited to discuss how my experience in full Slack development can benefit your team.
11:11I've worked on some really, really innovative projects.
11:14That's fine. Great. Let me ask you something.
11:17Look, are you sure you wouldn't be more happier like in our marketing department?
11:20Those positions are a little more suitable for someone like you.
11:26I'm sorry. What do you mean by that?
11:29Well, marketing, it's more about communication, creativity, people skills.
11:33Tech, it's a little bit different. It's hardcore problem solving.
11:37Yeah, I have five years of experience in software development, including leading a team that increased application efficiency by 40%.
11:45I'm confident in my technical abilities.
11:47Sorry, technical abilities? Sweetheart, do you even know what a server looks like? Have you ever been in a data
11:54center?
11:58Yes, actually. I've designed and implemented server architectures for high traffic applications.
12:04Look, I'm sure that you're very dedicated, but let's be realistic here. Tech is a man's world.
12:10It requires logical thinking, problem solving under pressure, and working long hours without getting emotional.
12:18I don't see how gender affects logical thinking or problem solving abilities.
12:23Come on. We all know that women are emotional. Right, Brad? We all know this.
12:29And when the code breaks at 2 in the morning, the whole system's down, we need someone that can think
12:34clearly, not someone who's just going to start crying.
12:38That's a completely unfounded stereotype. My previous employer can attest to my performance under pressure.
12:45Previous employer? Let me guess. They were just being nice because they had to fill some diversity quote. Am I
12:53right?
12:54Exactly. Companies have to hire women now. Even if they're not qualified, it's about appearances.
13:01I earned my position through merit. I led a team that actually-
13:05A team leader? That's cute.
13:08Let me ask you something. What happens when you decide that being a mommy is more important than meeting deadlines,
13:14huh?
13:14My personal life has no bearing on my professional capabilities.
13:18See, look, look. You should get a mirror. Look at yourself. You're getting emotional already. This is exactly what I
13:24was talking about.
13:27I'd like to discuss the technical requirements for this position. I've reviewed your current stack and I have some ideas
13:35for optimization.
13:36Technical requirements. Sweetheart, this job requires someone who can handle real enterprise-level development. We're talking about systems that are
13:46handling millions of transactions.
13:47I understand. I've architected systems that handle similar loads. At my last company, I designed-
13:55You designed or did you just document what the men on your team actually built?
14:00I personally wrote the core algorithms and supervised the implementation.
14:05Algorithms. Now, what you're doing now, you're just throwing around buzzwords. Do you even understand what enterprise architecture means?
14:14I have a master's degree in computer science from Stanford. I've published papers on distributed system architecture.
14:21Papers. Okay. Academic theory is different from real world application. Can you actually code or do you just kind of
14:29talk about it?
14:30Of course I can code. I've been programming for over a decade.
14:34What languages? And please, please God, don't say HTML. That's not a programming language.
14:42Java. Python. C++. JavaScript. Go. I'm also proficient in multiple frameworks and databases.
14:52Anyone can memorize a list of programming languages. The question is, can you actually solve problems when the pressure's on?
14:58See, there you go. There you go. There's that frown again. I told you. What did I tell you when
15:02you first walked in here, huh?
15:03I told you. You need to smile more. No one wants to work with someone who looks angry all the
15:07time.
15:08I am passionate about my work. And I believe my results speak for themselves. I've consistently delivered projects on time
15:16and under budget.
15:18Okay. Here's the thing, babycakes. Look, even if you could do the job, and I'm not saying that you can,
15:23you'd be working with guys who don't have time to be holding your hand and explain things slowly.
15:28I don't need my hand held. I need challenging work and the opportunity to contribute to innovative projects.
15:34Okay, but what happens when you start crying because someone criticizes your code? We can't have that kind of drama
15:42in the workplace.
15:43I've never cried over code criticism. I welcome constructive feedback because it makes me a better developer.
15:49Right. Okay, look, look. We both know that women take everything personally. And when we tell you that your solution
15:58isn't optimal, what are you gonna do?
16:00You're gonna think that we are attacking you personally.
16:02That's not true. I'm able to separate personal feelings from professional feedback.
16:07Plus, what happens when you decide being a mommy is more important than meeting deadlines? We cannot afford to have
16:14someone disappear for months at a time.
16:17Many successful professionals balance parenthood with their careers. My commitment to my work isn't dependent on my personal choices.
16:24Look, I've been in this business for 20 years, okay? I've seen women come and go. They start with good
16:30intentions, but when push comes to shove, what do they do every time?
16:34They prioritize family over work. Every time.
16:37That's an illegal basis for hiring decisions, and it's not an accurate assessment of my professional capability.
16:43There you go again. You're getting all legal and defensive. You should see yourself right now. This is exactly what
16:48I've been talking about. You can't just focus on the technical aspects.
16:52Look, I came here to discuss my qualifications for a software development position. Instead, I'm being subjected to gender-based
16:59assumptions and stereotypes.
17:01Okay, see, you're emotional already. This is just the interview. This is exactly what I've been talking about. The moment
17:08that things get challenging, you start throwing around accusations.
17:11So let me save us both some time, okay? Look, you seem like a really nice girl, but this job
17:16requires someone that can handle real enterprise-level development.
17:21You know what you should do? You should maybe look into an entry-level position where you can kind of
17:25learn the basics first.
17:27I don't need to learn the basics. I need a position that challenges my existing expertise.
17:33Your existing expertise. Sweetheart, I've been doing this since before you were even in college. Trust me, you are not
17:43ready for this level of responsibility.
17:45Your assumptions are based on nothing but gender bias.
17:49There's that attitude again. And you are definitely not smiling now. This is exactly why women don't succeed in tech.
17:58Women don't succeed in tech because of attitudes like yours, not because of any lack of capability.
18:03Okay, well, you know what? Good luck with your job search.
18:06Oh, and here's a little tip. Remember, next time, try to be more positive. Employers, they don't like negativity.
18:12Yeah, and don't forget to smile on your way out. First impressions, they matter.
18:24Sophia, are you okay? What happened in there?
18:28I can't work here. I can't work with those awful, sexist men. That wasn't an interview. It was a humiliation
18:38session.
18:39I'm so sorry. I wish I could have warned you, but I wasn't sure how to.
18:45Has this happened before? To other women?
18:47More times than I can count. I've watched qualified women walk out of here defeated, and there's nothing I can
18:56do about it.
19:00Why are you still here? I thought we were done. The interview, by the way, it ended when you stormed
19:05out.
19:06You know, some people can't handle constructive feedback. We're just trying to help her understand the reality of this industry.
19:12Maybe she's asking Jenny for tissues. You know how emotional they get when things don't go their way.
19:18You know something, too? It's probably for the best, because she would have quit within a month anyway.
19:22They always quit. They always quit.
19:24You know what? Thank you. This interview just gave me the motivation I needed to pursue something I've been thinking
19:30about for months.
19:31Oh, yeah? What's that? Going to try a different career path? Maybe something a little more suited to your skill
19:39set?
19:40Starting my own tech company. I'm tired of dealing with dinosaurs who think women can't code.
19:47I'm going to build something better than anything you've ever imagined.
19:51That sounds amazing, Sophia. With your qualifications and drive, you'll be incredibly successful.
19:59Thank you, Jenny. I appreciate you being so supportive.
20:03Your own company. That's rich. You couldn't even handle a simple interview without getting emotional.
20:12Yeah, and good luck getting investors to take you seriously. They will probably ask you to smile, too, actually.
20:18Yeah, and also finding employees. Who is actually going to work for someone who can't even answer basic technical questions?
20:24I answered every technical question you asked. You just didn't want to hear the answers.
20:28Right. No, right. Keep telling yourself that. Starting a company, it requires real business sense, not just wishful thinking.
20:35We'll see who's laughing in a year. I'm going to build something that makes your little operation look like amateur
20:40hour.
20:43Thank you for being the only professional person in the building. You deserve so much better than this.
20:49I believe in you, and I hope you prove them wrong in the most spectacular way possible.
20:54I intend to. And when I do, I'll make sure the entire industry knows exactly what kind of workplace this
21:00is.
21:01Okay, here's a little tip. Don't forget to smile when asking for business loans.
21:06Banks love confidence, not a little attitude.
21:08Yeah, and maybe wear something a little more professional next time.
21:11You know, first impressions, they do matter a little bit in the workplace.
21:14Gentlemen, I'll remember this conversation. Every word of it.
21:28So, check this out, Rod. I told the new intern that if she wanted to succeed in tech, she needs
21:33to be more like a man.
21:34Less chatty, more focused on the results.
21:37Yeah, I mean, exactly. Women always want to talk about their feelings instead of getting work done.
21:42Right? It's basic biology.
21:44They get distracted by all the office drama, personal relationships.
21:48What do we do? Men, we focus on the job.
21:51Yeah, they're always asking for help instead of finding things out themselves.
21:54I mean, it's like they expect to be babied.
21:59Here we go again.
22:03Oh. My. God.
22:05You know, the problem with hiring women is they're always worried about like a work-life balance.
22:10Well, men, we understand that success requires sacrifice.
22:16Right. No, you can't build a successful company by leaving at five o'clock every day to pick up kids.
22:26Well, hello there.
22:28Hi. I don't believe we met.
22:30I'm Liam Thompson, senior manager here.
22:32Yeah, and I'm Brad Wilson, also senior management.
22:36Are you here for a meeting? I'd love to discuss whatever you need.
22:39Interesting. You really don't remember me, do you?
22:43Trust me. I'd remember meeting someone as striking as you.
22:48Are you sure we haven't met before?
22:50I mean, a beautiful woman like you, I definitely would have remembered.
22:53Maybe we met at a, oh, a conference.
22:57No, no, not a conference. I'm right here, actually. In this office.
23:01Here? I don't think so. I have an excellent memory for faces, especially one as...
23:07Especially what?
23:09Well, especially for successful business professionals, which you clearly are.
23:15Okay. One year ago, I sat in your office for what you called an interview.
23:21You spent the entire time telling me to smile more and explaining why women don't succeed in tech.
23:29Wait. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. You, you, you...
23:31The woman who couldn't handle constructive feedback?
23:34The one who needed to learn the basics?
23:36The one who would probably turn out to become a mommy?
23:40No, no, no, no, no, no. That wasn't, that wasn't, no, no, no. I mean, look, we interview a lot
23:47of people and sometimes the conversations...
23:50Misunderstood? No. I understood perfectly. You told me I should look for more entry-level positions where I could learn
23:57the basics.
23:58You said I would probably have to leave and start a family. You laughed when I said I wanted to
24:03start my own company.
24:04Uh, look, if there was some miscommunication during the interview process...
24:08No. There was no communication. You were very clear about your opinion on women in tech.
24:13Well, I did start that company. And we've been incredibly successful. In fact, we've been so successful that we've been
24:21acquiring smaller companies to expand our operations.
24:24That, that, that's, that's great. Congratulations. What does that have to do with...
24:29We bought your company. As of this morning, I'm your new CEO.
24:33Ah, yes!
24:36Now, gentlemen, let me give you some advice. You should smile more. You look so serious and angry. Employers don't
24:44like that in their employees.
24:46Look, look, look, look. I think that there must be some kind of misunderstanding. We should, maybe we should just
24:50sit down and we'll talk about this professionally.
24:52Oh, there is no misunderstanding. I've had a year to think about our last conversation. I've also reviewed your employment
24:59records and your behavior toward women employees has been consistently problematic.
25:04Wait, but that's not fair. We treat everyone equally here.
25:09Really? Because I have documentation of multiple complaints from female employees about hostile work environment issues.
25:17Jenny, I remember you being the only professional person in this building. I'd like to offer you a promotion to
25:24office manager with significant pay increase and full authority over staffing decisions.
25:29Oh, Sophia, I, I can't believe this is happening. Yes, absolutely. Thank you so much.
25:36You deserve it. You've shown more professionalism and integrity than anyone else in this company. As for you two, your
25:45employment is terminated immediately.
25:47No, no, no, no, no. You, you, you can't do this, okay? That's, that's discrimination. I'm going to sue you
25:51for wrongful termination.
25:53Yeah. Feel free to try. I have documentation of your harassment of female employees, discriminatory hiring processes, and several witnesses
26:01to your unprofessional behavior.
26:02My legal team would enjoy that conversation. But, but we were just doing our jobs. We were, we were trying
26:10to find qualified candidates.
26:12By asking illegal questions about family planning and making assumptions based on gender, that's not interviewing. That's discrimination.
26:21Okay, now, now, this is ridiculous. You can't run a tech company. You're just a-
26:25I'm just a woman who built a multi-million company in one year. But please, continue to tell me what
26:32I can't do.
26:33This is reverse discrimination. Women are taking over everything and qualified men are, are just being pushed out.
26:40Qualified men have nothing to worry about. The problem is men who think their gender makes them qualified.
26:46Even now, you still don't get it.
26:49Okay, Jenny, you need to stay out of this, okay? This is between all, just us, okay?
26:52Between you and my new boss? The women that you told that couldn't succeed in tech?
27:00I meant what I said about the promotion. I could use someone with your professionalism and integrity on my team.
27:06Thank you, Sophia. I can't believe this is happening. It feels like justice.
27:12It is justice. And it's just the beginning. We're going to transform this company culture completely.
27:17You think that you can just waltz in here and change everything? This company has been successful for years.
27:25Successful? Your turnover rate for female employees is 80%. You've lost three major clients in the past year due to
27:32missed deadlines.
27:33Your code quality metrics are below industry standards.
27:38How do you know all that?
27:39Because I did my homework before making the acquisition. Something you should have done before underestimating me.
27:46Fine. You know what? We'll pack our things and go. But don't expect this company to survive without experienced leadership.
27:53I'm not worried. I've already identified several talented developers who left this company because of the hostile work environment. And
28:01they'll be rejoining us next week.
28:02This isn't over. Okay? We'll find new positions. And we'll make sure everybody in the industry knows what kind of
28:09person that you really are.
28:10Please do. Tell everyone how a woman you dismissed as unqualified bought your company and fired you for discriminatory behavior.
28:18I'm sure that will reflect well for you. Anyways. Welcome to the Team Jenny. Let's build something amazing together.
28:27This is unbelievable. A year ago, she was begging us for a job.
28:32No, women get lucky sometimes. It won't last.
28:34Oh, don't forget to smile on your way out.
28:39Employers don't like negativity.
28:49Jenny, one more thing.
28:51Yes?
28:52You can smile as much or as little as you want. It's your choice.
28:58Whoa.
29:10Ooh la la. What a beauty. I gotta go talk to her. Hey there.
29:19You look like you know what you're doing. Need any help finding something special for tonight?
29:24Um, I'm just browsing. Thank you.
29:27I see you're looking for lingerie. Is this for a hot date tonight? Gonna impress some lucky guy?
29:34No. I'm just looking for something for myself. Not everything is about a guy.
29:39Aw, come on. Every girl needs a little something special for when she's trying to catch a man's attention.
29:44I mean, let's be real. What's the point if you're not dressing to impress?
29:48Maybe I just want to feel good about myself?
29:51Well, sure. But let's face it. Looking good is half the battle. You gotta play the game if you want
29:57to win, right?
29:58Thanks. But I'm not interested in playing games.
30:01Well, do you have a boyfriend? I mean, a girl like you must have someone special in her life.
30:07No. I do not have a boyfriend.
30:11Really? Now how come a stunning girl like you is single? I mean, you must be turning heads everywhere you
30:16go.
30:17Hey, lady, could you excuse us for a second? I'm trying to help her find something to wear.
30:23Aw, I'm so sorry, but I need help too. Would you happen to have this in a larger size? I
30:33think it would really suit me.
30:35Look, maybe you should get out of the lingerie section. That's for young and hot women.
30:44I'm looking at a dress over there. I could really use another woman's opinion. Would you mind?
30:49Of course. Awesome.
30:58Okay, it's right over here.
31:01So, I was thinking of pairing this shirt with some jeans. What do you think?
31:07That color will look so beautiful on you.
31:09Are you sure? Because I was worried it might be a little too bold.
31:13No. Bold is good. I mean, life is too short just to wear boring clothes.
31:19You are so right. I totally agree with that.
31:27Wow. What a touching moment. Are you two best friends now?
31:30Oh, I didn't realize you were so concerned about our friendship.
31:34Well, I mean, just don't forget who's the real expert here. I mean, what do you two know about fashion?
31:38Right? You're just here to buy pretty things.
31:41Actually, I'm here to find something that makes me feel good about myself. And clearly, you don't get that.
31:48Mm-mm. And fashion isn't about the clothes. It's about how you wear them. And how you feel in them.
31:56Something you seem to have forgotten.
31:59You two are ganging up on me, aren't you? Like daughter and mother. And you know what? I would date
32:05both of you if I had the chance.
32:07Aw.
32:08I will never date you. Would you? Please. I have self-respect.
32:16You two think you're so great and funny. Ah, look at us. We're superior. Please.
32:21Okay. This is getting out of control. I want to see your manager.
32:26Surprise. I am the manager of the store. So see, maybe you should be a bit nicer to me.
32:30You know, I've been trying to flirt with you in a nice way. I mean, I am good looking. And
32:34I work out.
32:36Um, yeah. Because that's everything all women want, right?
32:41Ah, you think you're so funny, huh? Newsflash, you're not even all that impressive yourself.
32:46What is your problem? Yeah. I was just joking.
32:50Oh, please. What? You think you're some kind of catch? You're just another average girl trying to act cute. Get
32:55over yourself.
32:56Okay. That's enough, Harvey. You can't speak to her like that.
32:59Don't get involved, lady. Okay? This is between me and her. She's the one acting like she's better than everyone
33:05else.
33:05I'm not better than anyone. I just want to be treated with respect. Something that you clearly don't understand.
33:15Respect. Now, what do you deserve respect for? Shopping here?
33:18Okay, you need to stop. This isn't how you treat customers. And it's certainly not how you treat women.
33:25Why are you behaving like her mother? I'm sure she can defend herself.
33:29You're being rude. And completely out of line.
33:32Oh, whatever. I don't need a lecture from you. Okay, you're just as much a part of the problem as
33:37she is.
33:39See, women like you like to play games. And I'm just calling it out.
33:42No. You are the one playing games. And you think you can bully women into liking you just because you're
33:50good looking? That's pathetic.
33:52Look at you. Standing up for yourself. How brave. But trust me, this is not going to work out in
33:58your favor.
33:58You should really take another look in the mirror and reflect on your behavior. I've had enough of this.
34:04What are you going to do about it?
34:05Actually, I can do a lot about it. I'm Catherine Peters, the CEO of this chain store.
34:13I came here today to shop. At my own store. But after witnessing your male chauvinistic behavior, I felt compelled
34:22to step in.
34:23My goodness.
34:26Oh, what's wrong, Harvey? Are you going to cry to your mother now?
34:33Look, I didn't mean... I was just trying to be friendly. You know, it's just...
34:39Really? Is that what you call treating women like they're objects? Do you do this to every woman you see?
34:47Or how on earth did you manage to keep your job with that attitude?
34:51Well, as a CEO, I am also interested in knowing that, too.
34:55I can't have people like him working in my store. I mean, this is not the company culture. Not what
35:02I envisioned.
35:03Look, I'm sorry. I'll do better. I promise. I just got caught up in the moment.
35:07Oh, save it. This isn't about you getting caught up in the moment. It's about respect.
35:13And it seems you've somehow forgotten how to treat people.
35:17Now that he sees a powerful woman at the top, he's suddenly apologizing. Typical.
35:23Very typical. Mm-hmm. Pick anything you want out of this store, okay? It's on me.
35:28I want you to leave here feeling great and powerful. Just grab anything you want.
35:33Oh, my God. Really? Yes.
35:36Okay, I know what I want. Oh, you do? Okay, I can't wait to see it.
35:42Oh, I love it. So, what do you think? Does this say I'm confident and fabulous?
35:51Uh, yeah. Nice.
35:54You know, I'll wear this for someone who actually deserves it.
36:00Oh. With that attitude, you will never be with a woman who will wear something like this for you.
36:05So, let's make this official. Hold this up. Let me get this tag off. Yes. All yours now.
36:15Oh, and this one is for me. Yes. Yes. I love it. I love it. I mean, I can wear
36:23whatever I want.
36:23I don't really need anyone's opinion or validation, especially from a rude little man-child like you. You understand?
36:33Now, how about we go grab some drinks and, um, I'd love to talk business with you.
36:38Maybe we could consider you for a model for our company?
36:42Really? Really? Really. Oh, my God. I would love that. Awesome. And you, little man-child, you're fired.
36:54I can't have someone like you representing my brand. You can clock out now. We're gonna clock out soon. Let's
37:04go. Let's go.
37:13Oh.
37:13Oh.
