I had interview recently. Company allows dogs in the office. I had very bad experience with dog owners in past (a few weeks in hospital) . I asked some questions about self defense, insurance, sick leave... Interview went downhill pretty fast.
In past I would deal with that, and just pay cost from my own pocket. But pandemic changed that. Now I demand fair compensation for work in hazardous environment.
- 255kb 3y agoI absolutely don't get this office dogs thing. I like animals, but I don't particularily like dogs. They jump and drool all over you. How is "liking" dogs considered as universal or even a perk?

- lithos 3y agoPick an obsession, allow it in the work place. You suddenly have employees less likely to leave on lower raises and similar "abuses"(tm).
- antisthenes 3y agoService dogs and well-trained dogs definitely don't jump all over people. Older togs tend to just chill under a desk for most of the working day, next to their owner. Seems like you just had a few bad experiences with dogs.
