I would like your opinion on something:

Just 5 minutes ago a colleague asked in nearly every office of our workplace if someone had some jump cables becausetheir car doesn’t start. I’m the only woman here, and strangely, I’m also the only one they didn’t ask. Too bad, because I DO have some, and apparently I’m also the only one who does 🤣

I’m still debating if I should offer some help or, act as if I don’t know anything about the situation, and when they tell me all about it later innocently say “oooh that’s too bad you didn’t ask me, because I do have jump cables!”.

What do you think I should do? I know they’re not malicious, but I’m getting tired of the everyday sexism, and this situation feels like just another example of it.
