officious young women

don't know quite what to do with them. they also seem to have gotten down the up-and-coming-young (i'm assuming not limited to) southern man's ability to take credit for any amount of work that is done around them, while weaseling out of doing any of the work. Never have quite known how to deal with it, and while there is a part of me that is happy for these young women for developing a skill that will surely fare them well in their chosen professions, it irks me to no end that I have no clue how to remove myself from their domain. As it is, unfortunately, a role that i played very well in the south, and one that while i absolutely despise, is familiar and easy to fall into, and easy to be targeted for. That role is of "support staff" even when there is no call for me to be their staff. really irritating.
