Listening to a technical talk at a technical conference qualifies as drinking beer and breaking bread? I dunno about that. I've always felt that professional adults should be able to work with people who think different things that them. If you work in an office with 50+ people I guarantee you have coworkers who think horrible terrible things that you passionately disagree with. But that's ok. Because we're all professionals and those naughty thoughts aren't relevant and aren't brought up. |

In 2012 there were 747,408 sex offenders in the US. The population was 314,100,000. This means 0.2% of the population are sex offenders.
So, ignoring clustering, if you work for a company with 500 people, then 1 of your coworkers is a sex offender.
For instance if you work for Facebook, 25 of your coworkers are sex offenders. How can you live with that? Should you quit on moral grounds because you can't work with sex offenders?
For a less extreme example. 44% of americans are "pro-life". How big of a company do you need to overcome clustering effects and have a coworker that believes the opposite of what you do? 10? 50?
