The Wrong Sex or the Wrong Clothes?
Sylvia and Larry both work for a big company in London. They work in different departments. They are having lunch in the canteen. SYLVIA: We’ve got a new manager in our department.
LARRY: Oh? You hoped to get that job, didn’t you?
SYLVIA: Yes, I did.
LARRY: I’m sorry. That’s too bad. Who is it? Who got the job, I mean?
SYLVIA: Someone called Drexler. Carl Drexler. He’s been with the company only
two years. I’ve been here longer. And I know more about the job , too
LARRY: Hmm. Why do you think they gave it to him and not to you?
SYLVIA: Because I’m the wrong sex , of course !
LARRY: You mean you didn’t get the job because you’re a woman?
SYLVIA: Yes, that was probably it! It isn’t fair.
LARRY: What sort of clothes does he wear?
SYLVTA: A dark suit. White shirt. A tie. Why?
LARRY: Perhaps that had something to do with it.
SYLVIA: You mean you think I didn’t get the job because I come to work in jeans
and a sweater?
LARRY: It’s possible, isn’t it?
SYLVIA: Do you really think I should wear different clothes?
LARRY: Well. . . perhaps you should think about it.
SYLVTA: Why should I wear a skirt? Or a dress?
LARRY: I’m not saying you should. I’m saying you should think about it. That’s all!
SYLVIA: Why should I do that? I’m good at my job! That’s the only important thing !
LARRY: Hmm. Perhaps it should be the only important thing. But it isn’t. Not in
this company.
