Meeting spouses via work isn't dead. Just dating people whom you have power over on the org structure. You can't date your N-1 or N-2 etc, but you can still date someone in an adjacent group just fine.

Which honestly seems reasonable. Working in restaurants in rural areas I constantly saw managers removing shifts from women who wouldn't date them, and were very pushy/controlling over all the women they had reign over. There weren't many other jobs for most of these women - high unemployment areas.

Nah, it’s trivial to get #metoo’d out of a job dating someone even in another department now a days.

The hierarchy thing is definitely a thing, that’s a fireable offense even without false allegations.

But false allegations will take someone out pretty easily regardless.
