Me Shy?!!

I've never been called the shy type. I've always been the outspoken, noisy, rowdy, the 'High I' type kind of person. But sometimes i switch roles, especially when I'm in my prodn meeting where I'm the only lady there. You know, men strut their stuffs as long as there are women (no matter how unattractive or manly the woman can be) around. Sometimes, I get sick looking at these men stretching their muscles, uncompromising and displaying the 'look at me' peacock syndrome. But what to do, I'm a woman in a MEN's world.
Sometimes, I get egoistic too, cos' i feel proud for being where I am right now. Guess some of the testosterone rub on me.
But funny how I shut up when I'm in a meeting. Just last week, I had to behave like a dumb bloke, eer, blonde! All because of I had to pretend that I did not actually do the work, cos I was only supporting the new fella. But I had to swallow my comments cos' I can't make my junior look stupid infront of the boss. If he look stupid, then I look stupid, too. Anyway, it was satisfying to know that secretly you are superior than them (MEN).
I really hate those Seniors who shoots down their Juniors in front of the boss. They actually feel GREAT abt it. But what i see is stupidity on their part, cos it shows that they did not check the Juniors' work before presenting to the boss. Then they show off their 'Superior' skill exactly after the Boss commented that Juniors' work is sub-standard. They nod along and agree to the Boss. But the Boss is not fooled by this. The Boss is just pleased to know that he's working with a bunch of 'Aye-sayers'. Anyway that's male testosterone, for you!
Me, I just pretend to be shy and a bit dumb. Somehow the big Boss is please with my work, and I receive my promotion recently. Guess how things work? That's exactly how I work. I don't talk much, but the result shows. My line is so far the examplary line whenever the Boss mention 5S. Good eh? I'm very Happy, you know.
Errr. I can smell the male hormone coming out from my arm pit! Urgh!!!!
