Zoe, your office sounds like Mulder's in the "X-Files". Hope you do something secretive and exciting down there. Funny poster by the way.

I just happen to be browsing the latest job offering on Charity Village.

One caught my eye. an events coordinator for the Toronto Vegetarian Association.

As well as the usual list of requirements for the job, this one got me thinking

Must follow a vegetarian diet (free of meat, fish and poultry or the flesh of any animal).

Now I can accept that you are organising events that are for vegetarians and that serving up a steak would probably be considered quite tactless. I can even accept that you wouldn't be able to bring your ham sarnies into work, but insisting that you are a total vegetarian?

What would they do if they catch you eating bacon on your day off? fire you?

Would they insist on non leather clothing and purses etc? The shame of being seen with a non leather handbag

What about one's personal integrity. You would probably need to lie to get the job. I think that's a fireable offence in itself. It would be the same as working in say, an accounting role when on your application you "ticked" no to the question "have you ever been convicted of a criminal offence" when, in fact you had.
