You've just ruled out most of the ways that people cope with their individual insignificance in the universe - in fact just about all of the ones that don't depend on having already started a family. So yes, in combination that's pretty unreasonable. What you'd be left with is a small set of people who take themselves far too seriously to be fun to be around.

No smoking/drugs, no pets, no cults. Sheesh.

No pets seems a bit tough, do you have allergies? Do you include any organized religion into "cults"?

No allergies, I just prioritize humans over pets. Yes, all religions are cults by definition.

Well there ya go. You're just a douche.

What's wrong with having a pet???

OW1 thanks for the serious response. So you think removal of anyone of the three makes it reasonable?

I fit perfect. I am actually allergic to dogs and cats. Sad.

A1 nice. Are you east coast?

@OP: Finally. No pets. Thank you. I fit the bill and I have the same requirement for my partners. I don't feel like it's a lot to ask. But others disagree. 😂

OP went to school in Boston and nyc. Now DC. East coast?

Hmmm DC also

Thanks SC1, glad to know someone agrees

Yikes. #maybetooclosetohome #ornot

OP yes, much easier if you relax one constraint.

Haha A1

Really looking for a way to turn around a toxic building culture with staff to staff bullying, cliques/social isolation, hard feelings on big topics (racism, non acceptance of gender identity). Last year the staff polarized with the lead bully whom I helped leave. And the lead gossip (who was my secretary) that gained their sympathy and turned them against me. She also left. Now I need to regain trust and eliminate unacceptable teacher behaviors. Open to any and all advice.

Hi there, I got an offer for an early stage cyber security saas startup in Canada and they offered me 130k base and 10-15% commissions which they estimated at 160-240k additional a year.

I got 12 yoe in enterprise tech sales. No stock options upfront but potentially after the first 3 months. Good deal?
