14:01:07 From Jessica Bender : hi everyone.. everyone looks so serious today
14:01:44 From Kim Pfeffer – Emory : HELLO! Trying to find time to catch up on work in between COMTEC sessions
14:03:00 From Jen McDonald – Georgian College : I hear ya Kim!
14:11:24 From Kim Pfeffer – Emory : Are you sure you aren’t describing me!?!?!
14:12:12 From Jorrun Liston : 🙂
14:12:50 From Jessica Bender : as we grow up, we are told that it is RBF
14:13:02 From Kim Pfeffer – Emory : GUILTY of RBF!
14:13:18 From Jessica Bender : Really, we are introverts who are taking it all in and considering our response
14:18:57 From Kim Pfeffer – Emory : YES! Thanks for sharing – always a good reminder.
14:32:23 From Kim Pfeffer – Emory : Can the list of these books, podcasts, etc. be sent out to the attendees?
14:32:36 From Keesha Ceran : +1 @Kim, that would be great!!
14:32:54 From Lustick, Danielle E : yes, please send them to us!! 🙂
14:33:19 From Dawn Thomas : We will follow up with the book list!
14:37:44 From Jorrun Liston : Feel free to turn on your camera and unmute as needed.
14:37:58 From Jen McDonald – Georgian College : I haven’t sorry
14:38:17 From Lynn Ernsting : I wish we had a similar program but we don’t currently have anything like this
14:38:23 From Sheryl Puckett : I have not participated in one, but would be great opportunity.
14:38:54 From Keesha Ceran : Same as Sheryl, I haven’t participated in one, but love what has been presented.
14:39:11 From Kim Pfeffer – Emory : https://www.acui.org/wli
14:39:29 From Dawn Thomas : I think the lack of these programs speaks volumes.
14:39:44 From Jen McDonald – Georgian College : Our society has proscribed gender roles that they’ve lived with their entire lives and it’s hard to change your mindset
14:40:57 From Kim Pfeffer – Emory : I agree with Jen – some older folks don’t always understand the dynamic of a working mom and stay-at-home-dad. Another issue is calling women girls in the workplace. And Imposter Syndrome is REAL
14:41:17 From Kim Pfeffer – Emory : What is the “balance” you speak of – LOL!
14:42:01 From Jen McDonald – Georgian College : For an eye opening book on the millions of ways that gender impacts our daily lives, I recommend reading “Questioning Gender” by Robyn Ryle
14:44:56 From abarnes : Saying no: I’m going to decline the suggestion. My plate is full with other things that need my immediate attention
14:46:37 From Kim Pfeffer – Emory : https://www.amazon.com/Feminist-Fight-Club-Survival-Workplace/dp/0062689037/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=feminist+workplace&qid=1602096387&sr=8-1

14:47:22 From Maggie McCarthy : Yes. The mental load is real!
14:48:47 From Jen McDonald – Georgian College : Georgian Reg Office is 73 people and only about 5 of them are men so my experience is very different
14:49:28 From Jen McDonald – Georgian College : https://www.abebooks.com/book-search/title/questioning-gender-sociological-exploration/author/robyn-ryle/

14:51:48 From Jen McDonald – Georgian College : My manager used to be afraid to compliment me because I would tear up every time she did.
14:51:57 From Jen McDonald – Georgian College : It’s an embarrassing reaction that I can’t help
14:52:08 From Jorrun Liston : That’s powerful Jen.
14:53:08 From Kim Pfeffer – Emory : CHOCOLATE
