[QUOTE="LongTimeComing, post: 1100159, member: 45493"] People are different. People are capable of different things. Some can do things that others cannot. This doesn't make them bad employees. It is front-line managements' responsibility to put people in the position that they are most likely to succeed, while getting the most out of them that they can. I intentionally used 'people' instead of 'women' because that's the nature of it. I am quite athletic and more than capable of running laps around whomever you put in front of me, but I know plenty of men who are some of the worst performers out there. And then you have young vs old. As I said already, people are different. While there are extreme cases where these differences are taken advantage of, I think we need to practice a little bit of acceptance of these differences in performance. I think it's silly to assume that a 58 year old mother of 3 is going to be just as capable, physically speaking, of a 29 year old jock. But if she is doing the best she can with honest effort and it's meeting the general goals set for her and her route, than who is to judge? I would EXPECT them to expect MORE from me because of my physical advantage. That doesn't hurt my feelings, as it shouldn't for anyone else. My best may be better than her best, but that isn't anyone's fault. [/QUOTE]
