Nearly a year ago I reported a possible bug in my employer's web site. I was assured there was no such bug and that I was simply doing things wrong and/or forgetting key steps. I persisted, reporting it again and getting the web dev and database teams involved. Again, they thought I was using the support team's back-end tool and I had to explain AGAIN that I was using the same processes our customers use.
They reproduced the issue I'd documented at least 3 times over the last year and have logged a bug report for it.
So, this could all be argued as evidence that my womanness is being taken seriously, because I as a technical support analyst am being taken less seriously.
Still, I claim victory and vindication. My peers on the support team doubted me, and I proved them all wrong.
