Not a surprise, folks! When I talk to prospects (job, consult, who cares?) and they tell me "we're like family" do you know what goes through my mind? Yep, this or a potluck where I avoid eating anything. It's because I had a bad childhood, and as an adult I choose my own family and nobody gets to choose it for me and most especially my employer. See? This is indeed work related. While we're at it, can we simplify the "sexual orientation" question by making it a two-parter? 1) Sexual orientation? (yes/no) 2) If yes: dominant / submissive / other? and leave the poor "no"s alone! I empathize with them, honestly. If I ranked those four categories in order of predominance it would be No, Submissive, Dominant, and Other with No being the largest but not as large as Dominant and Submissive combined. As an Other I'll hang out with the Nos at work if you don't mind. That's not going to stop the doms and subs from sizing people up, because that's just what they do; that's not permission by any stretch and working for a company which is "like family" isn't either. Not looking for votes either way. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest.
