"Interested in: Career opportunities, consulting offers, new ventures, job inquiries, expertise requests, business deals, reference requests, getting back in touch and DOING IT! JK, LOL! Kinda.So I creep! Yeeeeah.Haven&amp;#x27;t updated your LinkedIn for a while? It might be time to groom the ol&amp;#x27; online resume, because a new dating website called Hitch.me (although I&amp;#x27;d almost prefer MarryMyA**.net) allows users to troll through LinkedIn profiles in order to filter through people based on their jobs...and nobody will ever know. The founder of the website, a 29-year-old married father, told the Toronto Star that he was struck with the idea when his single friends complained that they couldn&amp;#x27;t find any &amp;quot;good&amp;quot; people on the big dating sites. But that&amp;#x27;s not true! One friend of mine who online dates said she went out with a professional chinchilla salesman! And another one went out with a guy attempting to invent a teeny forest full of teeny little fruit trees and call it &amp;quot;Thumbelina&amp;#x27;s Garden,&amp;quot; aah! Those guys both sound like winners to me, so I guess it all depends on your definition of &amp;quot;good.&amp;quot; I&amp;#x27;m not kidding. If I owned anything made of chinchilla I would immediately feel about 75 percent more like Queen Bey. In all seriousness, many friends of mine have found that the people they meet online--for better or for worse--are more of the &amp;quot;waiter/artist/actor/writer/musician&amp;quot; variety than the stable career variety, which is clearly the main source of Hitch.me&amp;#x27;s appeal. Over 700 people have already signed up in the first 24 hours of its launch, but I gotta admit, I&amp;#x27;d feel a bit strange about mixing business with (derp!) pleasure. But what about you online dating pros? Does Hitch.me sound somewhat more promising for the career-driven than the other dating sites?
