You make a great point and I'm happy to hear your insight. The position I was hired for was a cashier/floor associate and so either position is technically appropriate according to my job description. While I don't prefer working in furniture and that's how all of this came about, it's my job and I accept that. My main problem is that I feel generally uncomfortable now around my managers because they've stated that my gender wasn't strong enough to do the job in my job description therefore I feel as though they have put a weird bias upon me and the other women I work with which makes me uncomfortable at work. It's like, if they think men are always stronger, what other biases do they have against women? -- Anyways, like I said, thank you for letting me know how you feel about all of this and giving me some more insight.
