selna? >> just a comment. my feeling is that you're presenting us with a problem that doesn't yet exist as the previous commissioner mentioned. this is all hypothetical. this legislation is not intended to prevent you from gaining employment and as someone who spent many, many years as a public affairs professional with many companies, there's no reason to think that you can't find a public affairs position and that doesn't necessarily mean that you will be interacting with the city and county of san francisco in any way whatsoever. so i think that to grant you a waiver prior to you having a position is really not something that we're prepared to do, certainly i'm not. but if you should find a job where there is going to be a clear problem, then that would be the time to come back and ask for a waiver, if it's clear that it's a job where you do need to communicate sweat and that there are some areas that need to be carved out or we need to consider but the whole thing seems premature, as has been pointed out.
