I work alone. So I guess technically I'm already dating a couple of co-workers, lovely Palmela and feisty Fistina.

**cdcox** · 04-30-2005, 07:33 PM

I'm pretty sure my wife would be against it.

milkman · 04-30-2005, 07:35 PM

I'm adamantly opposed to dating co-workers.

Of course, I'm married, and all my co-workers are men.

I've done it a couple times (in my younger days at the grocery store) and neither one turned out well. Made going to work suck ass. NOw that I am a grown up I won't do it, even though there are a couple hotties I wouldn't mind laying the wood to.

**Rain Man** · 04-30-2005, 07:59 PM

I married a woman I met at work, but she worked in a different department and we had no professional interaction.

Same department or work group, no. Someone two buildings over, yes.

I'd maybe try it if you don't have to see them all the damn time, like in a diff. work area. Otherwise no.

**Tribal Warfare** · 04-30-2005, 08:15 PM

That's hot.

Dating is typically what you do when you were unsuccessful at scoring thr first time you met up...I wouldn't recommend it, it could lead to expensive problems like marriage.

I can't say that I've "dated" any women I worked with, unless you call frequent sex with no strings attached "dating." Although I'm no longer seeing any of those women and it never caused any problems, I've seen it ruin a lot of working relationships for others.

What he said.

cheeeefs · 04-30-2005, 09:12 PM

I think my stance would have to be from behind, that way if she wants to talk shop I can tune it out a little easier.

KCChiefsMan · 04-30-2005, 09:37 PM

at my work, the boss's girlfriend of several years is a terrible employee...not good at her job at all, and lazy. So she gets all the big raises and promotions (no BS) she got promoted to marketing coordinator and with a big payday. Not one person I work with would disagree that "it's not how you play, it's who you lay"
