Why don’t you like the phrase?

It just means they aren’t looking for a hookup. If you don’t like it, move along.

Yes

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that. I’ve been on too many dates where the other person wasn’t sure what they were looking for or wanted out of it. Like why waste each other’s time?

Yes

Dating with intention: a phrase people (typically older women) use to say they want a turnkey relationship without providing what the other party wants.

Yeah it's dumb and duplicitous. You can't be intentional with someone you barely met.

Yup.

What’s your work-life balance like? I feel like I’m constantly working after hours, always balancing multiple projects, hardly ever going through a phase where there isn’t a ton of critical initiatives going on. It definitely wasn’t like this when I was a more junior PMM, but as a Senior PMM, my work-life balance has severely decreased. Is this just the nature of Product Marketing? Or can I actually find a senior PMM role that allows a bit more room to breathe?

I am in the process of finding administrative assistant interns from our local universities. In an effort to make my job opportunity appealing, I am asking everyone in this bowl about an appropriate job title. Is "Administrative Assistant" outdated or unappealing? I certainly don't want to mislead anyone on the job responsibilities, but I do want to avoid any potential negative stereotypes attached to that job title. Are there alternative titles that you find more appropriate for 2022?

Many with kids live on the same street as their ex wives so they can be close to their child. I'm not comfortable dating guys like that.
