Man Complains About ‘Sexist’ Room Sharing Policy at Work

Imagine working in a male-dominated field that requires a lot of travel. You’re a 28-year-old man, and your team has only one woman. When your team travels, she gets her own room, while the men share rooms. But when a second woman joins the team, she also gets her own room, and the men still have to share. Would you complain? That’s exactly what one man did, and now he’s facing the wrath of his female coworkers. Let’s dive into the story…

A Battle of Room Sharing and Accusations of Sexism

Our protagonist felt it was unfair that his female coworkers, Mary and Barbara, each got their own rooms on business trips while the men had to share. He decided to book his own room and submit the receipt for reimbursement, claiming that he thought private rooms were the new policy. This led to higher-ups getting involved and Mary and Barbara being told they’d have to share rooms in the future. Now, they’re angry with him, and the work environment has become hostile. Was he justified in complaining, or should he have kept quiet? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…
