Choose the pronouns "you" and "your" since they are the only pronouns you should expect anyone to use when talking to you. If you aren't participating in the conversation, other people's diction is none of your business.

Would you quit your job over it?
Suck it up and swallow your pride?
Happily add them and think it was a good idea?
No way I'm giving up my salary because of a "required email tag"
Now, here is the deal...if they are "requiring this" they are probably doing some other stuff that would necessitate a move...

What pronoun does a straight white male use?

I’d put some stupid shite like dog/dog’s.

Or maybe they are just trying to avoid an expensive/time consuming lawsuit from some overly litigious type and this was the simplest, least expensive way to do that.
Maybe they already got hit with a lawsuit and this is their answer.
It's a stupid charade but maybe it's smarter to include pronouns in emails than waste hundreds of man hours in sensitivity seminars every time someone gets offended by a work email using the wrong lingo in a company of thousands

I did quit my job over this and other woke bullshite. Went to a more regional company that gave no fricks about that shite. One of the best things I ever did. We focus on results not genitalia.

No rational thinking person needing to support a spouse and children would quit over something so fricking stupid.
You are right! It’s simply not possible to search for other jobs while employed, so you must quit before you can start searching. The only choices
A) suck it up and stay in a job with dumbass requirements so you can support your family
B) quit and put your family at risk.

I can't speak to financial motivations but even in our dumb culture I haven't heard of lawsuits over not requiring employees to do this and I work adjacent to L&E lawyers all the time.
But companies promoting cultural decline via risk avoidance is precisely why the pro-corporate mindset of many conservatives is misguided.

Wouldn't quit since I'm closing in on retirement but would hold out as long as I could then probably use Baw/Boss

My preferred pronoun is "Big Poppa".

"I don't feel comfortable doing that, thank you."
No HR is touching that response.

If it really became an issue, I’d just list my name and not let anyone refer to me with pronouns.

I'm not gonna be forced to respect someone's opinions that don't respect mine.
I think encouraging pronouns and gay shite is meant to hurt the next generation, not help it. Honestly to me it's a hill worth dying on but I don't have kids yet and don't fault anybody for weighing the risks that come with defiance.
