Is it normal to do a job interview and the interviewer drops the fact he is divorced and compliments me for being an woman who loves linux? Was I just hit on?

> Was I just hit on?

Yes.

Him being divorced has nothing to do with your job.

You might want to let his HR know.

I don’t want to take it to HR. I don’t think its serious. Maybe a bit flattering.

@graciegato yes, you were, watch your step, very closely.

@graciegato that guy who interviewed you is not a healthy person. He is also likely sexist or in a state of having cynicism toward women due to going through a divorce.

However, yes, I believe he may have been making an advance toward you and the backhanded compliment betrays an angry and simple mind.

I hear this is common in tech. See #jfrog for an example of toxic workplaces in #tech .

The damage they did to my #family is a prime example of #toxic behavior in the #workplace aimed at #women.

Sometimes #women help male #sexists by being flying monkeys for them.

Be careful and guard your #soul.

The patriarchy even has its effects on the #woman led field of #socialwork.

That said, you are not alone.
