Unacceptable!

I don't know what caused me to turn on the TV yesterday but I did. And I caught this show which whenever I've seen it captures my interest and it happened to be on. Last night on House...

There was a meningitis outbreak.
A 12 year old diver was hemorrhaging in the brain.
And they were trying to find a new doctor for a fellowship.

The outbreak was contained.
The diver turned out to be pregnant and needed an abortion and other treatment to save her life.
And Dr. House was propositioned for a date by the person who's job they were trying to fill as a condition for her coming back. He accepted.

Guess which topic I'm going to go off on a rant of today...

If you said #3, then you'd be right!! In today's corporate environment, even with long working hours, challenging travel schedules and heightened expectations from management... You don't "fish off the company pier". Ever. Leave it to FOX to romanticize office relationships in such a manner that could be construed as acceptable and/or the norm. I'm okay with the woman asking for the date though.

Here's my advice to those about to jump into an office relationship: don't. Join a local social club or a dating website. Hit the bars and meet people the old-fashioned way. Have your friends introduce you to their single friends. Or even (gasp!), meet somebody at church.

For those of you who are disappointed in my choice of topic, I'll rant about teenage (and pre-teen) pregnancy some other time.
