I met a very interesting man at a networking event recently. I immediately recognized his name because we belong to a few of the same email lists and he is a frequent contributor. Somehow he managed to insert himself into a conversation I was having with a woman. She told me she did a lot of volunteer work, and I mentioned that I volunteer at a local art museum. The man asked me why I volunteer. I told him that I really like art and wanted to give a bit of my time to a great organization. The man then grabbed my arm, held up my hand, pointed to my ring finger (which was bare), and asked, “Are you sure you aren't volunteering to get one of these?” I later found out that at the end of the event, he asked the woman I was talking to for her card and said, “Maybe I can call you for coffee? Or sex?” -Maureen, SilcWIT [PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION] LETTERS There are no letters for this article. To post your own letter, click Post Letter.
