Unsure of how to handle - or what the collective thinks - but in an interview last week COO of the office asks me ‘so are children in your near future?’

Preface, this was preceded by the interviewer going on and on about the need to work long and unfair hours (his words).

This is a pile of bullshit right? Also illegal from what I can gather. Have no desire to pursue the roll but figure I should tell them how shitty that is.
