[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the specific job. Working for Altria wouldn't bother me. Working for Breitbart/NRA/any other hardcore right wing org would. I have plenty of conservative friends, including those who work in politics, but some organizations are beyond the pale for me because it would indicate too great a gap in our fundamental values.[/quote]

Same.  (Well, except that I've dropped most of my conservative friends at this point.)  It depends on the organization and also on the job: I don't have a problem with the guy who does IT support or even advertising for Chik-Fil-A, though I personally won't spend a dime there, but I'd not be friends with the CEO.  I agree with the PP who said every NRA employee has blood on his or her hands.  My own employer (at the high level, not my unit) has done things recently that I find morally wrong and I am figuring out my next move as a result.

In OP's case, yes a lobbyist for a cause I find unacceptable would be a deal breaker.  Wave and smile at the neighbor, but that's it.[/quote]
