International Women’s Day

Harleys, a leading “offshore practice” in the city, commemorated International Women’s Day by sending their female staff and female clients, a kitchen appliance, namely a pink ice cream maker.

This did not go down well. Their “valued female leaders, friends, clients and colleagues” made sure the decision backfired, by asking if they could have an upgrade on a Dyson vacuum cleaner and whether a washing up brush might be offered as well!

A lady partner hit back by saying she was working on a full house cleaning kit for husbands, to be sent out as a gift on Mother’s Day.
