Workplace Hazards

I'm sure we've all run into people we know on these websites. Who's been the most surprising?

How about having your boss hit you up for casual sex? Well that didn't happen to me exactly, but that might have been the case. Talk about an awkward situation. Once I interviewed for a middle-management position at a company I really wanted to work for. A couple weeks later, a high level<b> executive </font></b>from that company contacted me through a "dating" site. We never met at the time of the interview, so he had no idea whom I was. My profile was sufficiently vague and only contained non-identifiable photos.

I know it was wrong of me to even imagine, but I couldn't help wonder, if he would offer to pull some strings for me. So I replied to him, and we chatted for a bit. I didn't make any suggestions. I just pointed out that it was a weird coincidence to find him there. Smartly, he didn't offer to do anything majorly unethical. However, he still tried to get me to meet him. I declined.

I did not get hired in the end. But what if i had been? Would I have been able to work there knowing what I knew, even if I never revealed myself to the guy as that woman? Would it have been a sexual harassment lawsuit just waiting to happen?
