Don't Smile Too Much at Work!

So today while driving to the gym the guy on the radio brings up a study done on women and smiling at work. According to the study, women who smile a lot at work are seen as less authoritative and serious about their job. What do ya know...

This seems bizarre to me. Women just can't seem to get a break.

Men are turned off by women like Hilary Clinton who come off as strong, independent and smart. So you'd think...oh well maybe if she would seem more friendly and not so standoffish it would work in her favor. Apparently not.

According to the story, if a woman comes off as too friendly and nice, so isn't taken seriously. So how in the world are women suppose to act. If they are too serious, they aren't likable. If they are too likable, they aren't serious about their job.

It seems like an unfair judgement. Men seem to be able to get away with a lot more, when it comes to attitudes in the workplace. While it seems impossible for a women to get a good footing, and be able to make a living without being judged. 

Hopefully, times will change in the work field, and one day everyone will be treated as equals.
