I think dateing a coworker says a lot about your basic character.
It can say you are a risk taker, that classifications are just labels on people on the same overall team, and that people are more than the job they do. But it can also say that rules have no reason or purpose to respect others, that what you want in the short term is way more important than the long term consequences, that is ok if you violate the system that provides for your employment and all the good things having a job brings everyone, and pretty much disregard for customs and common sense as long as it feels good in the ment. I have seen far more relationships tank in the work place than ever succeed. They generally make not only the prinipals miserable and have to conduct themselves in habitually deceitful ways they corrupt everyone around them. Whenever ever I have had to go in and fix an organization or it is a failing businesses it is usually because some kind of hanky panky is poisoning the pool. |

I think if you are in management it makes things much more risky. Especially if he or she is subordinate I've been in management way too long for this to be a problem. It's just "NO" for me. I can't help but think that if a business is failing because of hanky panky ,then how serious were they about the business to begin with. |

Hummm well I have never dated those I worked with first I did date a guy for like 4 years then went to work for him and actually worked for him for several years before we broke up.. Would I do it again most likely not... when you break up and still see them every day it's not a good thing.. even tho we still remain civil to each other and still check up on one another...it took some soul searching in order to be able to get to that point.. Thanks TsxGal for your comment. That's pretty much what I see at my workplace. The ones that are married, were together before they started working together...usually the ones from other countries that come here to work. And I agree, if things don't work out, it would be difficult to see each other daily and especially if they or you were to see someone else, that could be very uncomfortable. They don't encourage relationships at my workplace, but allow spouses to work in different departments. They allow those who chose to date to do so, but not if one or the other is in a position where they are your boss. For me, it's just a good idea. |

Generally speaking, it would be bad form to date a co-worker.
In a larger Company with over 50 employees and where you wouldn't see each other or interact with each other during the work day, perhaps that would be allowed.. however.. In a small Company with few employees where everyone is close together, then NO dating allowed.. (if it was MY Company).. that would only lead to trouble.. a breakup would occur and someone quits.. costing the Company money to re-train someone new for the position.. |

There's over 400 employees where I work. I'm not sure if that factors into their over looking it in some cases. But even there, they do have fraternization rules when it comes to any higher up personnel...executives, supervisors, managers, etc. |

But thank God he didnt but it was a really weird situation especially when we had to work late together. I am nolonger working at that company and we are now good friends. I will never repeat that again though

Many work environments have pettiness and gossip as a natural occurrence.
To date someone you work with would only add to that kind of thing. I'm not saying i would never do that hut he would have to be much more convincing than your average person. |

I have never dated a co-worker. In business ethics, the company always has a policy in the prohibition of romance in the workplace. I don't think it would be healthy to date a colleague. If you don't want to be the talk of the town , better find someone outside your working environment.....always maintain respect and professionalism.
