but yeah, in general i feel like the person i'm hiring/i'd like to be hired is someone i can invite out for a beer or two after work. not necessarily to become best buddies, but someone human enough that i wouldn't mind spending a few hours outside of work with. i can't exactly describe it, but you hopefully get what i mean |

socially awkward, sure it's tolerable definitely not the worst thing, but some of these kids are just arrogant and the textbook definition of "thinking they're hot shit" |

We are a small office, so being a dick get's noticed very quickly. Of the 50 or so people in our office, only 6 aren't either Software/front end developers or Tech Writers. |

She didn't listen to my advice about the first guy, so I just withheld her from having my daughter for visitation while she was with him. But once she figured it out for herself and tried to get rid of him.....it resulted in about 8-10 slashed vehicle tires, and a gas tank full of sugar even after a restraining order was put in place.

this girl i met through tinder (yet to see her in person btw, been busy) has added me on facebook, followed me on instagram and even connected on linkedin. also somehow found my number but the only common link i can think of is that one of my friend's girlfriend is in the same sorority as that chick and i know she doesn't have my number and my boy wouldn't do that to me

Wow this thread derailed...
On the original topic, many years ago I had a girl that I worked with, and she wasn't exactly undesirable, at least at first, and we dated for a little bit. Ended it, and although she was a bit upset, seemed to get over it. The job was seasonal, so before long we did not even see each other, and lived quite a ways apart. Months later, she reached out and wanted to hang out again, and I mistakenly agreed. She came over to mine once or twice to hang out, and then started asking if she could use my address to register for her next semester of school, which I denied. Then she tried to leave toothbrush and hair stuff in the bathroom. As I was starting to see the need to cut her out again, she showed up at the house when I was at work, and asked my roommate if she could come in, and leave some stuff in my room. After I got that call, I had to tell her that she had crossed the boundary, and needed to stay away. For the most part it worked, she called me a few times over the next year or two, then I moved and changed phone numbers, and never heard from her again. Luckily this was all pre-social media, so I never had any worries in that respect. |

I'll wait for details (soon to be) on the dating thread. She sounds like a keeper! At least she is showing initiative. |

My Attorney had to do a series of meetings in Chicago and asked me to speak at a function in his place. I said yes and he connected me with the event coordinator. Before I met her, he said in passing..."don't be surprised if she asks you out because you're exactly what she likes." Wait wut?!?!!
Fast forward 48 hrs which is Monday of this week. She calls me and asks if I could help her bring in a couple of more sponsors to which I said, "yes". I make some calls, get a few more, pick up the paperwork and a couple of cases of wine donated by the local cigar shop. I ask her how she wants to handle the transfer and I told her to meet me either at my office, my attorney's office, or a local coffee shop at 11 on yesterday. We agree to coffee at 11. She calls me again and tells me that the schedule is changed and asks if we can meet at Ruth's Chris and do the paperwork exchange at that point. I say, sure. I get there and she is dressed for a date...completely dolled up. I'm in a pair of chinos. I order a glass of tea, take two sips and make an excuse to leave. Last night after 11 PM she texts me again about having a proper drink and dinner. I don't answer. This morning she calls at 6:30 and I don't answer. I finally called her back and stuck to nothing but business. If I hadn't committed to speak, I'd bail right now. It's disconcerting.
