Professions you would never date after working with them

[Ettubrutus]

I’ll start - surgeons.

One of them told me his wife was a GP -“because only one of us (him) could have a proper career”

Also - the overriding narrative that every female who complained about their outcome or consultation had “mental health issues”. They just couldn’t conceive that anyone would complain about them.

Probation officers. Spend too long dealing with low lifes

Police
army
prison office
tory

Vicar

Pilot- knew loads of them and didn’t have sex with any of them. One used to live in my shared house and used to randomly come and get in my bed sometimes in the morning/ I used to get up and go and make a coffee giving him a shake of the head and then he’d bugger off back to his own room. Looking back he was just pissed as I was the only woman that wouldn’t sleep with him ever. He got married aged 35 and hasn’t been faithful to her.

Other people can and should at up risk, do an individual risk assessment
Do what’s tolerable for them but that’s not applicable to all. It’s Not universal risk eg no one date or ,marry, police,medic etc
its well documented all the dreadful acts perpetrated by a violent vile minority. A minority who aren’t representative of the whole. Broad brush generalisation are simply that,broad brush

one could also say don’t date men who are football fans who drink alcohol as there is a direct correlation between football and DV.

generalisations and anecdotes about wrong un ex partner are of limited value

I've never actually dated one but my sister was married to an Electrician or ' ' ' 'Sparks'as he liked to be known he was a total bell end . A close friend and colleague was also married to one he was worse a big headed bell end

None of them 🤣 I'm a happily married widow. So my days of are

The ex-husband and my late husband were in the building trade, so I guess I preferred men who weren't some academic know it all.

Most men in any academic or professional roles are know, it alls especially in sales

The first paragraph should end with the word "over"

I was good friends with a couple of surgeons who were true gentleman, lovely gentle guys who went out of their way to make sure their patients were comfortable and not in pain. Having said that and echoing a pp, both their wives were GPs so perhaps there’s a veneer of arrogance. Female surgeons are also pleasant. Other male surgeons I work with are arrogant pricks and wouldn’t look me in the eye or listen to a word I said when I first started working there. I’ve had to be very public school headmistress which they seem to respond better to. Still wouldn’t touch them with a barge pole.

police officers - not a chance. Uneducated, chip on their shoulder, arrogant, power hungry and a lot of very dodgy misogynistic racist homophobic views. A couple in the holiday let we stayed next door to once had some “strong opinions” and his wife was long suffering, not allowed to express an opinion and was overall cowed.
prison officers same
anyone creative - the level of self absorption is off putting
I’m single and quite happy, especially given the state of some of the men of my age on dating apps

@Folklore9074 no I think it's a thing. I flatshared with another teacher once and we had to make a conscious effort not to do it. I've also known two pairs of married teachers who said it became a problem - one pair divorced and one half of the other pair moved out of teaching. I've no idea why we do it because it's boring enough for us let alone people who end up listening to it.

Came on to say doctors. Worked with a few in a non-hospital environment and there was literally nothing they could see of use in other professions. Being condescended to all day was tedious.
I’ve worked with many IT bods as well and on balance I’d avoid them in the dating pool. Just a bit clueless about wider society. Unable to frame their work in anything other then technical terms.

Blimey. You come across as very aggressive and deeply unpleasant.

I think your personality that is putting people off you, not whatever it is you do.

You are cracking me up! 😂😂😂

Having worked with both id say a police officer or a pilot!

I recommend Do go back read the posts I responded to,get some context
or stick with your opinion.Up to you.
I don’t need to justify my responses to someone else to you.

I am a police officer and married to a police officer.

It makes me feel really sad to see how many wouldn’t date a police officer either through experience or reputation.

We are (I am) trying to make a difference and improve the culture and service we provide.

It is not the case that ACAB.

There are some incredible men and women that work tirelessly to try to ensure that you and your families are safe in multiple areas from domestic abuse to terrorism.

The public are the police and the police are the public.

Please try not to think we are all the same.

And if you do have a bad experience, please report it.

I don’t want to work alongside those that are not behaving as they should.

Thank you

QED.

LOL ,in fairness, you’re unlikely to say I have reflected and on balance I see it was a difficult set of posts.
As you were

My Thoughts are public Have short memories. 2020 it’s was all clapping & ❤️NHS with rainbows 🌈 in windows when public were scared & needed NHS.

Investment banker. I was married to one for long enough that they tend to attract a lot of misogynistic cheaters and wife-beaters.

Only staying here for @PleaseBeHappier posts!

A cryptozoologist, I went out with one once, he was more interested in looking for the Beast of Bodmin Moor, the Mexican Chupacabra and playing with his lizards!! I turned up to meet him on a blind date, and thought I must get away from this guy, made up an excuse and left. My friend knew who he was and was dying to meet him, so I had to meet up again with him, so my friend could be introduced to him.

Team Sportsman I used to work in semi-professional sport, I could count the members of the team that were faithful on one hand.

Had to get rid of the lorry driver. He was always tyred
