For those that know me, I rarely provide constructive input about NANOG matters due to my past affiliation, however, I just saw that NANOG announced the Women mixer on Sunday before NANOG 91 and am outraged for all of the young professional women who would like to participate in NANOG. While the times are changing, women continue to remain primary caregivers for families and this will require them to desert their families a day early. I find it offensive personally and feel like you may have missed the mark.
Minds are hard to read, so asking the question before being offended is not an unproductive endeavour. That said, we are here now.
The amount of times I hear people complain about having to leave their families is one of the reasons this industry has a problem keeping young people - especially women.Does anyone else feel the same?
If you have a better suggestion on what would work best, I'd be keen to hear it.
