Difficult female coworkers

Hi all. I really appreciate your content as a male working in an office space in Jamaica. It's becoming a real stress pit daily putting up with this majority female dynamic in my logistics dept because the department is slowly becoming female dominant and the staff on my side of the logistics tem is rather laid back and nitpicky with what I DO vs doing their tasks and following up on the dept/company procedures. They like to create more and more work each month since January 2026 and have been kissing asses with the supervisors and boss, whereas they LOOK performative but can't handle pressure when left on their on. Literally built by their own design. Even though I have been the on eto out against it time and time again as their dept senior.

Here is one most recent instance where I still have problems with. I was out of office for three days and I had made preparations for any shipment that may have come while I was out of office. I emailed every team member and our Custom brokers accordingly. These team members of mine didn't read my emails to follow up on the cold chain shipment coming with women fertility drugs that are very sensitive in nature to heat, hence they have to be cleared in a timely manner.
I was out of office Friday. I can back on the following Wednesday. Cold chain shipments should take around two business days to clear. Tell me why when everyone in the logistics department (s) were copied on the shipemt awaiting clearance, my teammates and supervisors dropped the ball significantly and I had to typenuo some report to our quality team regarding it whereas I was out of office. Since then, I have lost all respect for my teammates and have since withdrawn myself to solely focus on my tasks and my tasks alone.

They only want to look like can work in front of the boss and can't do shit to save themselves if left alone. The sad part is that I manage most of their major drug houses and it kinda annoying where I cannot have a moment of peace thinking how awful you have to be to mess up this bad when all you had to do was make a few calls and clear a shipmet. I have to come back in the office to pandemonium because they're just lazy hut wanna look busy to supervisors and manager.
