All relationships at work are a bad idea. They're dangerous to the firm and bad for the people's involved careers. Best rule for everyone is no relationships

All relationships at work are a bad idea.
They're dangerous to the firm and bad for the people's involved careers.
Best rule for everyone is no relationships between co-workers and if one happens both people are fired.
- collyw 8y agoConsidering that 1/3 of all relationships met at work, your suggestion sounds pretty ridiculous.

- msisk6 8y agoAwhile back one of my co-workers got involved with a contractor. Apparently the relationship went "bad" at some point and one of the parties decided to get HR involved. Both were fired immediately.

- lagadu 8y agoThat is mind-boggingly ridiculous: the concept that a company would have any sort of opinion on who I have sex with. US work culture sometimes feels so incredibly alien when seen from the outside.
- LeftTurnSignal 8y agoIt's alien when you're on the inside too.
- sizzzzlerz 8y agoWe had a married couple working at the company, both engineers and neither reporting to the other. The husband was promoted to a managerial position where his wife would now become a report, not direct, but still in his chain-of-command. That is against company policy so they were given some options to resolve this. The wife ended up with a lateral transfer into another division.
