I think the people I work for mostly hate me, and I'm responsible for negotiating an exit from a contract with a much larger company. It's complex because they're both a customer of ours and also a supplier. As they are larger than us, I have no real negotiating power. I got the job because I claimed to be stubborn, but it turns out that isn't a good attribute when you're the weaker of the two negotiators and the default position is very bad for my company. I asked for training on the job but there hasn't been any provided. Does this work in my favour?

I'm worried I will lose my job, but the next guy isn't going to do any better.

Can I claim sexual discrimination because he's a man and make them keep me employed as Prime Minister?

Very funny. I must be a bit slow, because I didn't realise who it was referring to until I got to the end.
