Also, I will not miss...

being treated like a child.

Not to over-post, or beat the dead horse here, but if I do get the job I'm interviewing for on Wednesday, I will welcome the prospect of being treated like an adult. It's true, I look about 22, but I'm 30 and would generally appreciate being treated like a competent human being.

I know, I know...I want the world and more.

I can empathize. I'm 36, but have honestly been mistaken for 19! I dress professionally and conservatively, but I think some people can't get past my youthful appearance. They want to underestimate me or assume I'm green and know nothing (and treat me accordingly)!

I would be interested to hear from others who have the same problem and how they deal with it.
