This situation
I actually know someone who rumor has was not chosen because of something like this. I personally feel that while the old adage Birds of a feather flock together may very well be true I also find that in many, many cases this does hold true. Some people are friends because of some commonality they share, not because they simply enjoy ALL the same things and share the same behavior. Example: some of my friends are a little more rambuctuous than I am, but I feel that THEIR behavior should have no bearing on MY personal merit. They are MY friends, my organization of interest does not have to associate with them any than they want to.
And what one person may find to be negative behavior may not be to another so who is anyone to judge, especially when you are judging someone else based on what THEIR friends are doing.
If I rambled forgive me it has been a long two days.
