    It means you fornicate with said female without use of a prophylactic. When the deed is done, you leave without saying a word.

    1) Why do you think the lady would even be interested in you?

    2) If it's a headhunter, why do you think it would be necessary to flirt with her or more? All she does is get you in front of the people who decide. She decides nothing.

    If enough of the social and interviewing communications have been through email or some other documentable media, I would talk to EEOC/Employment lawyer, turn her down, wait for the rejection and then go civil on her ass. Otherwise I would turn her down and then look for another job. I just don't know when it would stop for this person or how much leverage she would have over you, long term.

    1. Is this your first job?
    2. Either job must not be so awesome or you are not right fit for the job if you have to go through to land this.
    3. How old are you? You sound very inexperienced in the real world.

    The thing is, through my own connections, I know that this woman has been handed the keys to finding candidates for this job. She is the only one.

    I know she is attracted to me because she outright told me she looked up my facebook and finds me attractive. The other reason I know is because she only went into flirting mode when she called me from her personal cell phone, versus other times when calling from her office.

    Obviously, this woman is smart enough not to leave a trace of evidence of this happening other than calls from her cell phone.

    We are meeting for coffee tomorrow. Let's see what happens. Who knows, maybe she's just testing me or is more bark than bite. That's what I'm hoping for.

    teknokid,

    In the Dubai version of the real world, I am the experienced one and you should take notes. lol

    ATW,

    I'm not responding to you because I can see what you're thinking and I find it offensive. No, I don't care to share or elaborate.

    At one of my engagements, the rumor was one of the directors opened up her blouse and legs to the VP to get a promotion to management. She was promoted over (more) experienced directors who "paid their dues."

    She was sent to management training. Her direct reports did not respect her, partly because she spent her days running errands; was not familiar with even the most basic concepts of project management or had the technical knowledge or background to lead the team; but mostly because of the rumors of how she was promoted.

    A few weeks after promoting this director, the VP left with little notice.

    Back to Mathloom's point: are you qualified for the position? Is it worth your reputation at this company? People have done worse things to advance their career.

    I'm qualified for it IMO, but that's not for me to decide.

    No one at the potential employer would ever know.

    The only reason this is a problem is the bottleneck created by the fact that this woman has been handed the responsibility of finding interviewees.

    When interviewing for my second job, as a teenager, I went through the entire interview with my pants unzipped (on accident). I got the job. The interviewer, who became my boss, was an older, less-than-attractive woman.

    Not sure if there was any connection.

    What am I thinking? :confused:

    You are imagining something in your own mind and then imagine it is offensive? :confusing:

    I think my posts were pretty clear.
