    Article about how much an employer can pry into your personal life.

    This was submitted in the comments section at the end:

    "I can understand this situation well. I am a high paid IT professional in
    the city. I also lead what some people would term an alternative lifestyle.
    I am involved in the BDSM [bondage, discipline, sadomasochism] community, I
    am bisexual and polyamorous. I currently have four partners - my wife,
    another male and a female couple. All of them know about each other and
    most have other partners that I also know about. There is no cheating
    involved, we are all very open and honest about it and all the
    relationships are long term and very stable. While these are perfectly
    acceptable to all those involved, I somehow think they would be very
    unacceptable to my employer, so while at work I have to pretend that side
    of my life does not exist. My partners are in the same situation.
    Anon, London"

    Oh, yeah, like *I'm* a high paid IT professional.[1]

    Right.

    Er.

    Hang on.

    [1] I think I'd have written "highly paid", for a start. ;-p

    Had I written it. Which I didn't.

    Honest.

    'why does everyone call me a ****'

    I can only really recall one person around here making much of an
    effort to call me a ****. Funny, really.
