[quote=Anonymous]I have been trying for 2.5 years. In that time I have left one job, and am in process of leaving another now (both times on to better things, promotions -- all good!). Anyway, both times when I gave notice, my boss alluded to me having kids. First time, my boss said "Well now that you are leaving I can ask you -- do you want kids?" and this time, my boss was more tactful, but said something like "...and you can pursue other personal things, for your family, in this job... if you want." I am annoyed because it is obvious that people do not know what to make of an early-to-mid 30s woman who is getting promoted but seemingly is not interested in kids. Like I'm just not interested, and that's why I am not having any. Like it hasn't occurred to me to have kids. UGH mind your own business and keep it professional!! WTF. I love how IF does not even occur to them, even though it affects like 10% of women and I work in health care.[/quote]
