i guess some are just making conversation but some are waiting to filter you out before they even get to know anything else about you.

I did a mini experiment on this once. Told women variously I was:

-lawyer
-karate instructor
-student

(Each of which was true)

Each had very different outcomes

Karate instructor was the best

They're trying to get to know you, Op. WTF is wrong with that question?

I don't get it. What else is she supposed to ask that's acceptable to you that's still about you?

LOL wut??

Paranoid much? I'm glad I don't care what anyone else thinks of what I do for a living.
I don't live in pill worlds, just the one that makes common sense.

If you become truly self aware you will realize that you are naturally and subconsciously always judging people and people are always judging you. It’s a normal part of human nature. If you think this doesn’t apply to you or others you are just not aware.
You can be aware of the nature of judgement and simultaneously not give a chit about it

I personally don't find it as offensive or anything negative about it. It's for conversations and people are curious. sometimes I just don't kno how to respond when I lie about it. One time I met an old high school buddy and he asked. I said I do printing. And chit back fired when he got interested and said I used to own a small printing company lol. Tried playing it off and he asked me these printing questions I had no idea about lol. Ended up telling him the truth. I think people judge u more on what u drive and what u have than what job u have.

Edit: didn't see u meant online lol. If sloot ask me that right off the bat or few mins in or after a few text. Then I'll play the game

That's an opinion.

And this, I really don't care, so none of what you're saying applies to me. Life hands you much more chit to worry about than a stranger's opinion based on my answers to common questions.

On dating apps if the chicks first message to me is about my job, I instantly ghost them.

I get why they do it, but it’s a turn off for me.

Like you say you're a lawyer, I'm going to ask what area and then attempt to ask non-retarded questions so you can explain stuff to me. No different to if you said 'barman'.
Yeah, the follow-up question I get almost every time is what area of law. Lots of people assume we all defend criminals, and I usually jokingly talk about not doing criminal defense but clients being criminals in their own way.

Normally people ask what "what do you do for a living" to segue into a conversation and to get to know wtf you're spending your time doing on a weekly basis. I don't think it's a big deal.

Probably this

But job/income is definitely a priority for every 25+ year old single girl I know

This. You spend the majority of your day at work anyway, it's important information to gauge I feel like. I think why miscers feel so insecure about it is because they typically have a "boring" job like everyone else does.

Happens often. I'm a doctor

If she asks what I do or what my job in the hospital is right off the bat, I immediately become disinterested (srs) and will just ghost them.

It's one thing when it comes naturally (or appears so), but sometimes you just know the bich has a certain standard

Now here's the thing. I'm an adult and I know having a good job is icing on the cake, and I actually expect my future partner to have a good job as well. But just something about that being the first thing they're curious about really irks me the wrong way for some reason

Have probably missed out on a few good ones because of this but there are plenty of biches in the sea...

creating drama in the hospital you work at? i dont trust that man, especially not in 2021. sounds like a headache too, HR issues aside. not worth it especially when a fit handsome doctor can easily get pssy outside the hospital

it's not the Doc who is gonna create drama.

it's the slooty ass nurses who spread their legs with expectations that create the drama. great if they do, they can get fired after.

Which is OK too right? Maybe they're just as excited to share with you what they do. Who knows. I think people are wayyyy to worried about that question.

I give people the benefit of doubt when they ask me what I do. I honestly don't even give people an answer they like since I love to dumb down what I do to "oh it's boring, I'm basically doing customer service all day. Tell me what you do. I hope it's more exciting" (I don't mention that I own my own business) There are tactful ways anyone can answer that without having an aneurysm.

Yeah I don't think there's anything wrong with it, and work makes up a huge portion of our lives so it being a hot topic makes sense

Depends on the hospital and floor. One of the hospitals I work out, regular floor, nurses straight up show titty cleavage daily, thongs showing out the back of their pants. I've only banged one nurse where I work (drop dead gorgeous, I couldn't resist...and we're still cool to this day). But on apps, they are probably the easiest when I'm looking for just a fuk. And with those chicks, I pull the doctor card (smoothly of course) and it's pound town..
