Not at all, as long as you don't ask him how much he makes lol, it's something about him that would be of interest to most people meeting him, perfectly normal to ask
Superficial gold digger types usually ask this pretty early on in an interaction, rather than taking an interest in you/the connection, but there are ways of asking without being quite so obvious/making it at least look like you're not just performing a box ticking exercise
that's essentially what a first date is though, a box ticking exercise.
Beautiful, intelligent ambitious women don't tend to work in grocery stores so I probably won't have that problem.
That's what I say but I'm always being told not to think that way. I don't wanna ask a dude and it turns out he has a *****y Job making him feel bad after.
I'm sorry but asking what someone does for a living doesn't make one a gold digger,it's just a good way to get to know Abit more about the person,that's all
