Woman finds out she’s not part of the boys’ club when her all-male team plans a Cabo getaway without her, leaving her to process their expense reports and her own exclusion: ‘ I thought I was a part of their team, but it’s now clear that I’m not’

In the corporate culture of this day and age, some folks just can't seem to shake off their caveman instincts. It's like they missed the evolutionary memo about equality and decided to stick with their 'No Girls Allowed' treehouse rules. 

One would think that by now, with all our fancy technology and supposed progress, we'd have moved past the era of grunting and chest-thumping. But no, in many offices, it's still Neanderthal o'clock.

In these corporate caves. Suits may have replaced loincloths, but the mentality remains firmly in the Stone Age. It's a world where the "boys' club" isn't just a metaphor, it's a way of life, complete with secret handshakes and an unspoken agreement to keep the "others" out, all for the Bro Code, Bro!
