Not sure why they would even ask that. I sure don't ask, I really don't care what your final destination is.
TSO1973, are you directed not to ask such questions, or is your refraining from asking such simply a result of personal preference?
It's nice that there are a few good apples like yourself, but I'm more concerned with the policies of your organization than with the possibility that some of you, by choice, act appropriately in performance of your duties as public employees.
