    Yeah I’m 6’3” and while I don’t think I’d want to give up any of my height sometimes I see pictures of me with a group and I’m just like “Jesus Christ I’m a head and shoulders taller than everyone else”

    Being a foot taller than everyone else means your ears are above them and you can’t follow conversations in noisy venues.

    Wait, short people can follow conversations in crowded places??? :scared: Now that I think about it that tracks but I never thought about that one.

    I keep ending up in charge of stuff just by virtue of being a man and the tallest person in the room.

    No fr wtf is up with that. It happens all the time. I’ll be one of the least experienced people in the room and people will still look to me like I should know what’s going on.

      When I have a woman or any afab person or a shorter person as my supervisor or manager I always stand behind them and very pointedly differ to them when customers inevitably direct questions to me. Otherwise people will just assume I know what's going on and it's like "dude i am wage labor, they literally have a masters in forestry I just move stuff around"
