College Students Dump Dating Apps as Bumble CEO Steps Down (gizmodo.com)

‘It’s not you, it’s me’ is the gist of college student qualms with dating apps. Hook-up culture declines while young people search for genuine connection.

I just can't fathom doing that even if it was perfectly acceptable. I hope these are jobs people don't give a shit about or they have opportunities for something better. I don't (currently), so if things went south, which for me they tend to, I would be sitting here in a very bad state.

Eh it depends on the workplace. My wife and I met at work through friends, we've been married 13 years, and I think we've only ever been in 2 or 3 meetings together (and those were unusual situations, not regular projects), and we practically never have contact "professionally". It's a large workplace, and there are quite a few couples floating around.
