[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My ILs now only care about the kids.

But they have never asked me about my career or job much. Even though I’m c-level now. It started early: I’d be at dinner with 10 years of exp in xyz and they’d ask my now-husband’s grad school roommate about it but never me!

Now I don’t care what they think about me or anything. [/quote]

I'm not going to out myself because there are not many women in IT, but all I will say is that I am also C level. There is nothing more I hate than talking about work when I'm not at work. The second I close my computer my job completely melts away and there is nothing more relaxing than being mentally present with friends and family.

To each their own, but a lot of people are very curious about my job and ask a lot of questions and sometimes i just have to cut them off. I'm very grateful that my inlaws are not enamored with my job. I'd much rather talk about my kids. Heck, I'd rather talk about my MILs health problems all day before my job.[/quote]

That’s kind of industry specific in your case— hey, can you check this out and fix my computer?
