    9 to 1.

    They hired three new researchers at my work. All three new hires are women. I am the only guy. One guy; nine women total.

    Times change...

    Usually, they do that so they can pay them less. Maybe that doesn't apply to government jobs.

    Actually, the women here in my department get paid better than the men. The other guy that was working here recently left because they were paying him about $5,000 less than everyone else (and about $2,000 less than me). So he got another job; he was surly about it.

    Also: This dude was the most productive employee. His productivity numbers towered over everyone else. I was usually second or third.

    He was also the first to volunteer for assignments and he had a Master's degree, which not many folks have here.

    I was thinking that this demographic make up precludes me from advancing.

    Yes, if you take a defeatist attitude and stop trying.
