    That recruiter might work somewhere less shit in the future, so I’d rather not burn a bridge unnecessarily.

      Just be honest with the recruiter that the particular employer is the issue, but you would be open to discussing other opportunities. That doesn’t burn bridges, and it helps them better determine what you’re looking for.

        Exactly. And if he nods his head silently, you understood each other. If he starts asking “but why, Elon is great!”, burn the bridge.

        You don’t wanna stumble upon him in the future when he’s gonna be recruiting for another Elon. 😉
