I've worked in factories. I've flirted with women who worked on the factory floor beside me. No one is getting fired for dating a co-worker at that level. But you know there are so many (mostly) men that use their power to coerce women in subordinate positions in to sex. So companies a using a zero tolerance policy towards those unequal relationships knowing that sometimes it's totally innocent. </p> <p>It's like eagle feathers and to a lesser degree hawk and owl feathers. They're quite valuable and people were killing eagles to near extinction to sell the feathers. So how do you protect the eagles? One way is to make possession illegal with a high fine. There are ways to get eagle feathers without killing an eagle. Eagles lose feathers in zoos, in flight, in fights. You could just find one. Some native elders get them from places like zoos and give them away. It's illegal but it happens. But it doesn't matter how you got your feather even if you picked it up off the ground and didn't even know the species of bird it came from. It's illegal to possess it and it's more than a $1000 fine for each feather.</p> </div></div></div> Wed, 06 Nov 2019 09:31:22 +0000 ocean-kat comment 273161 at http://dagblog.com "Meet at Work" is the #2 way http://dagblog.com/comment/273156#comment-273156 <a id="comment-273156"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/comment/273136#comment-273136">HIM TOO it really is gaining</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>"Meet at Work" is the #2 way of finding your mate, at 15%. For those who don't have a strong family or friends network and not into online dating with strangers (or pickups - Looking For Mr. Goodbar) it's perhaps the easiest and often the safest, even though the asshole vengeful boss or colleague is a possible downside. For those who are shy, careful, or have issues like being fat or acnes or just kinda ugly or maybe their personality is an acquired taste that make them unwanted in the speed dating world, there's an aquarium to observe, allow less likely matches to happen over a longer period of time. School is like that, but much more cliquey and immature and mean.</p> </div></div></div> Wed, 06 Nov 2019 07:33:00 +0000 PeraclesPlease comment 273156 at http://dagblog.com HIM TOO it really is gaining http://dagblog.com/comment/273136#comment-273136 <a id="comment-273136"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/link/love-work-me-too-we-never-29493">Love at Work: Me too, We never?</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/business-50287158">HIM TOO</a> it really is gaining legs:</p> <blockquote> <p>Australian businessman Gary Lyon still thinks it was "bizarre" that he lost his senior management job for dating a junior colleague.</p> <p>But it all turned out for the best in the end - he has been married to Tamra for 12 years and they have an 11-year-old daughter, Charlotte.</p> <p>Now Mr Lyon and his wife have their own company in Brisbane and he says he would be perfectly happy if two of his employees fell in love.</p> <p>"It wouldn't bother me in the slightest," he says, "as long as it didn't affect their work."</p> <p><strong>Mr Lyon contacted the BBC after reading that <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-50283720">McDonald's had fired its chief executive</a> Steve Easterbrook after he had a relationship with an employee</strong> [....]</p> </blockquote> </div></div></div> Wed, 06 Nov 2019 04:26:16 +0000 artappraiser comment 273136 at http://dagblog.com
