Message: During a recent interview at tech firm, a male VP of Sales and Marketing made the following comment to me, "You are very, very, impressive young lady." I didn't think of it until a day later then it kind of ticked me off. The only person who ever calls me "young lady" is my mom when she is angry at me. Should I be upset or not? The company did make me an offer, but I'm a little hesitant.
