authority
I’m an officer on a boat in the tourism industry. I love my job and value guests who come back year after year. Some have been spending their vacations with us for longer than I’ve been alive, and treasure our boat and business. One of these guests, however, took a strong and immediate dislike to me last year. I’ll call them “Chris.” I’m already dreading the week Chris will spend with us this year—last year, they spent the entire time insulting me to other passengers and crew members behind my back, snapping at me to my face, and at one point cornering me and haranguing me about my personal shortcomings. Not professional shortcomings, mind; Chris admitted that I’m good at my job, but had a problem with my upbeat, easygoing demeanor. Because I am a young woman in a traditionally masculine position of authority, I get pushback like this fairly often but never with such personal dislike attached.
masculine position of authorityの意味を教えてください。よろしくお願いします
お礼
あれ？！ マジっすか？ どうも記憶が曖昧で場所勘違いしてたようです・・・ 東京駅にもあるんですね！ 今度行ってみたいと思います。 ありがとうございました！
