In the past two years i worked so hard that i only got lower back pain as a reward and my boss did not even think of promoting me for my efforts. Any way i like how women have broken the glass ceiling and promoted in their career to a botter positions since they are juggling between work and home tasks.

Thank you 💓

Thanks

Thanks a lot!!!! I adore this report and vocabulary!!! This channel is absolutely fantastic!!!

Just great!

I encourage women to perform their tasks diligently whether they are asked to take on top jobs or less important ones. Gradually, if they set their heart on diligence, some of those women will see themselves moving up the career ladder and break the glass ceiling.

Thank u a lot.

There are a lot more women in higher ranks and leading positions in Europe than in other places.

So relatable 😅

Maybe you can't advance in some jobs but you always can still learning in free time. Sometimes, some too demanding jobs are not for all, but you can work in something you like, and still studying in free time, into another hobbies too.

Very effective for English learner..

Nowaday, women have a very strong skill to be an exelence leader acording to me. They are great and nice.

I think it's better to separate women offices from men offices

Glass ceiling

Yes but in France, my experience is that the situation is not the fact of men.... but the fact of low graduate women or nurse or psychiatrist women or women teache event more than the fact of men !

I would .like not to occupy non- promotable tasks that they wouldnt let me progress in my career ladder. Even though the iron lady (Mrs. Margaret Tatcher) paved the way, the time went by and women roles have filling leadership positions have not advanced considerably.

Who like speaking practice with me

I guess women are good on multitasking, because they are doing juggling all the time in their jobs and houses. Unfortunately sometimes they are not rewarded properly.

Bob: You know what Peter, I heard the distance between the earth and the sun is 150m kilometres Peter: Where did you here (so / that) ? Which is the correct word from those in brackets? Explain why choosing the wrong one affects the meaning of what Peter is trying to ask. Thanks.

I believe women would be better bosses. Men are harsher, so most of the time they do not care about you. On the other hand, women have more sympathy and make you feel appreciated. I guess that's one way to increase the productivity of a company.

Lise Vesterlund no agree gender equality 😂😂

'Less important roles?' - like Janitor? Garbage collector? factory worker? coal miner? trawl fisher? construction worker? jail guard? truck driver? and ... ... 🖕

This the biggest load of crock I've ever heard
