I haven't stated my background but like the poster's daughter I was put of IT as a teenager. It took until my twenties until I was convinced by other women who worked in the industry - none of whom had Computer Science degrees - that it was an OK profession where you could earn decent money. I've since met other British women who were also put off as teenagers but now work in the industry. Part of the issue is some people especially men believe in IT for it's own sake not in how it can solve real world problems.
You appear to have done exactly what you wanted to do at the time you wanted to ... I can't see any problem with that.Comment

You seem paranoid that some woman, person not your age, ethnicity or a mixture of any of them will take a role you could have. Guess what - if they are found and are liked better they will get the role nothing you can do about it.
Those who point it out like this guy get fired, beaten up, bullied, ostracised, etc. which is why most people keep their heads below the parapet.
The evidence is everywhere if you choose to see it.Comment

I wonder what person in a minority group you think stopped you getting a lucrative contract when in reality the reason you didn't get it is because the hiring managers worked out they had a more pleasant personality than you.Last edited by SueEllen; 12 August 2017, 20:21."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

I'm lucky enough to know real people who are or have been politicians from different parties who I've had conversations with - all woman shortlists was an interesting one...."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
