Do you judge a person by their job?

Do you consider a person's job or lack of job an important thing about them?
If you're single when you meet someone new is it a question you ask them straight away? Would you go out with someone who was unemployed?
Does someone's job define them?

I think alot of Moroccans are guilty of this, and it really winds me up when im asked so early in conversation, its obvious your being judged!!!

Don't we all when meeting potential partners? It was certainly important to me when I was single. Not for money but for intellect and similar interests. I know that sounds snotty but it really doesn't work when people have hugely different educational and work backgrounds. Certainly not marriages. Especially if the woman is more educated/higher social position than her man because it takes a strong ego to deal with it. Or worse, a freeloader Inevitably these kinds of differences cause problems; I have seen it many times with friends. Looks/sex/humour only go so far after all

As for my friends, well, you have different priorities with friends. You may have one or more things in common. Education or jobs don't mean anything when it comes to friends. It doesn't come up in conversation because its not important. What is important is mutual respect, trust and knowing that they care & are there for you when the chips are down. Someone to laugh with. A shoulder to cry on. Someone to rely on. After all, your man will never be absolutely everything to you. You need your gal pals

Unfortunately that is the type of society we live in today
It would be great if everyone was judged on an individual basis

Thanks for clearing that up

Mouhajir!!!....you loony!!

We all judge to a degree...
Personally i dont think people are their jobs. I'd want to know what they are like and what interests they have, long before I want to know what job they do.

Yes of course - but it's different when its a potential partner. Then greed comes to the fore
