I remember a guy who was dangling a big organizational grant in front of me, and was like, oh my laptop is in my hotel room upstairs, run up with me while I get it.

And I didn't want to be weird about it, I very reluctantly accompanied him and then stood outside the room door

And then, wouldn't you know it, the laptop wouldn't work unless it was plugged in, just come look at this spreadsheet in here.

This was AFTER a lot of #metoo conversations, I was literally remembering a male family member talking about how women ought to know what hotel room invitations mean

But it was a big grant, you know? We really needed it and the guy kept making fun of me for being weird and I didn't want to make a big deal out of it.

So I went in making sure I had a clear path to the OPEN door, ready to move if I had to
