Why risk your job being social with anyone at work? Why ever do anything other than exactly what your job requires?

I'm saying, if your social skills are so bad that you're risking your job by being social with women at work, you should make fixing that a top priority.

Okay, but if my social skills are that bad then I certainly wouldn't try fixing them at work.

Also, in response to your first sentence, it's about relative risk.
