There is a particular topic of interest that I was reading about some days ago, one that deserves ponderment:
Dating at work. (dun dun DUNN)
These crazy kids met at work....Nuff said.
I read an article that said while this was once serrriously taboo, it's becoming more common practice and many employers are loosening their rules on it. Well, I say that's bullhonkeycrap. Dating a coworker still seems to get you a good deal of negative attention these days. I've heard plenty of stories in the past year of people being fired, reprimanded multiple times and looked down upon at the very least for coworker dating. So I ain't so sure that things be changin'.
It's easy to see why so many of us look to coworkers for luuurrrve. You're at the same office every bloody day, and meeting and dating somebody you work with is far less creepy than meeting someone on the internetz (or poking your crush for the zillionth time on Facebook). However, this may still be under "tread lightly" territory. Especially if your boss is ugly, single, desperate, angry or has more than 2 cats.
Waddaya think? Thoughts, comments, issues, concerns, or witty remarks?
