I work for a big company and am fairly new. I'm on my third or fourth week and was transferred to a new (bigger) dept where it's all men. Literally... I am the only woman. I'm also pretty young at 25 years old. Today when I went to drop off something with one of my many supervisors (32 years old) he yelled across the dock and asked "why do you dress like a school teacher?!"
He yelled so loud that everyone in our vicinity heard it and it made me feel so uncomfortable. I made a bad attempt at trying to brush it off and said, "well how do you know I dont sub in the mornings?"
I almost never have a problem brushing off negative comments but this bothered me the whole day. Especially since it started at the beginning of my shift.
Am I overreacting or is this behavior okay? It drove me nuts because it almost seems like he was asking why Im so covered up. I was wearing a button up shirt and slacks with flats. The dress code is business casual.
