[quote:Anonymous Coward 23343731:MV8yMDQ2NDU5XzM0Mzg1OTQ5X0UzNkU1OTRD] [quote:Anonymous Coward 27357754:MV8yMDQ2NDU5XzM0Mzg1MzM2XzMxMDc1N0ND] When I return phone calls at the office, I am doing other things as well. I pull downloads that take awhile, while I am downstairs helping the mail room fix problems. I load 5 computers at a time when I load them. While they are loading I do other things and come back to load other applications, get them going and go back to whatever I was doing. When I get to work, there is a line forming at my desk for help. I have two computers on my desk so that while I am doing one thing on one, it doesn't hold me up, I can start work on the other one. I am a multi-tasker and when I say we are doing this, I mean IT department, but really, it is just me. [/quote] Your business needs to get ofs microshaft windoze LOL. [/quote]

Multitasking is one of the characteristic women are proud about.
I never could myself find any ground to such allegation.
And the other day I finally got it.
Ever notice that when women talk about something done they use at best "we" when it actually is "he" who done the work?
It could be as well "I" - meaning her - when again "he" had the work done.
So while "he" does the job and "her" is doing something else - like being on the phone - and since for women "he" is "we" they do consider having done several things at once.
Then yeah sure they are multitask. Only they're not.
