[quote=Anonymous]I’m surprised to read about the 35-year-old who might go on maternity leave. This doesn’t resonate with me because I work With professional knowledge workers and by mid 30s you’re pretty far in your career probably management or director level. so I’m thinking more long-term and not thinking this person might need three or four months off. Seems really shortsighted to eliminate a huge pool of talent. I can see for someone who is looking for entry-level data entry, retail, or something like a call center being concerned about this, but not for professional knowledge workers. I’m in my late 40s and I feel like in my 30s my career was white hot and people were falling over themselves to hire me. I mean I just feel like that was sort of the prime on my career and people were still looking at my potential and excited about that. So that doesn’t track with my experience, and I’m a mom of two by the way.[/quote]
