Sexism in the limelight

So the issue of sexism is back in the media spotlight this week due to sports commentators being caught off air discussing a female referee.
I think this is a serious issue when it relates to the workplace and implying that women cannot perform a role as well as men, but can't help thinking this has been blown out of proportion now that more footage is coming out of the woodwork of other presenters off air chatting about women. It makes me wonder who is leaking this to the press - and what the benefit is for them?
I'm all for equal opportunities, and think us women should stick up for ourselves and be noticed as competent and successful in the workplace, but not at the expense of purely gaining media coverage.

Pesky sales calls

We understand that everyone has to earn a living somehow but we have really noticed since the end of last year there has been an increase in the amount of sales calls we get - for services we are never going to use! We try to be polite on the phone but sometime wonder why nobody researches companies before calling them?! Just for the record we don't need work uniforms, don't make international calls, don't need travel arrangements and we do not want to switch our suppliers! Ok, rant over now!

Back and ready for 2011

The team at Gemini is back after a refreshing break over the festive period. For some of us it was pretty hard to get out of bed this morning, but now we are planning ahead for our clients for the coming year and getting on top of things.

We hope you had a lovely rest as well and are ready to face the challenges and exciting times that 2011 will bring!
