This is what I meant. Not all politicians lie. I don't think it's their job to lie. Some turn it into that. Some are good eggs, though.

Sounds like a quote from a failed business owner who tried to fudge his books but got caught and reported by the SEC and is now unemployed and butthurt.

I could never date anyone whose job was religious or supernatural in nature (fortune teller, astrologer, faith healer, etc)

I would also have a hard time dating a bartender or server that had to work nights, just because I plan on being more or less 9-5 for my whole career.

I want to be an urban planner in the near future. Would that be a turnoff?

I don't want to date a cop or construction worker, since the physical risks scare me. Also, the lack of consistent work for construction workers concerns me. Considering I've never seen an attractive garbage collector, I'd never date of those guys either.

One of my old roommates got asked out at her workplace by the City of Chicago sanitation worker whose route they were on. She said sure, and more than a dozen years later, they're married with a family. He's just an average, handsome dude, and has always made really decent money working for the city.

Haha! So many of the ones I've seen are toothless and have made disgusting remarks to me. They must employ a better breed of them in Chicago. Good for your friend!
