Hello
This is a question to any young blood man, no disrespect to anybody who is G.A.Y ( pokes filter)
I have recently started going out with my manager at work
I am 22 , she is 29. She wants kids i want to have fun. She is hot, i play GC lol. Work it out
Anyhoo tonight we had a big a.s.s row ( i forget to mention that she is the bosses sister in law ) anyhoo i`m sitting here stewing at 3 AM london time, and i have to be at work at 8 thinking, d.a.m.n i can;t lose my job it is a recession and as a young blood i do not have the requisite experience to get a new job
I have a degree but no experience which as any UK student will testify is much more important
And i am stewing thinking i like this girl but if it all goes pear shaped then basically her sister who is married to my boss will crucify me, and there goes not only my job but my reference as to what i have been doing for the last 6 months
Drunken curiosity
Question :-
1. Have you ever been out with someone who you work with
2. How did it work out
3. Did you lose your job ?
4. Can yu empathise with this situation ? ( i.e have had experience of such a situation , no blaggers its sad haha )
NOTE i am not seeking advice, seriously guy...... but just curious about stories of other peoples experiences
The Legend That Is
DP ;-) ( those who cannot understand British sarcasm flame on)

Well hmm if your serious, ur 22 and she is 29 big diff in mentality, she could be much more mature than u , and that could cause a major problem in the future and we dont want to be like akon right na na na. So talk with her and find out if she is like your mentality level, if she is she would be a good match. |

99+ day(s) ago | It is normal to have rows and I see no reason you to get fired. You didn`t date too long as well so why the heck should she want to harm you that much? Men/women come and go... She is 29 and she shouldn`t have a teenager mentality any more imo. |

99+ day(s) ago | Idk DP, I have been flirting with the sister of one of my best friends(it could have evolved if I didn`t get way too drunk and blanked out :P) and dated another friend`s sister. It didn`t mix up with our relationships but there were some weird situations there - so we broke up eventually and I guess it was for the best. But that`s pretty much as far as my experience goes. |

99+ day(s) ago | You cannot legally be fired for having relations with someone at work aslong as it doesn`t impact your work.
<advice>
Just be normal and act as if noting has happend not only will this irritate your boss immensely but it will also make you untouchable by the management, remember to be civil and polite without being sarchastic or anything which they could fire you for and all will be fine.
</advice>
no i havent been out with someone who i worked with, but i know someone who did, and he got fired for it for some random reason, and he sued them, and won. ;)

99+ day(s) ago | Man I worked at a car rental company for years, they hired all young people and worked them very hard, it was a work-hard-play-hard mentality and these people were together all of the time, stopping off after work for chickentails, often on the company` dime, so as you can imagine, the gene pool mixed quite often,
BUT
It almost ALWAYS ended in disaster. Either fights at work, or cheating on spouses and marriages breaking up, or favoritism or whatever. Even if it was only other people jealous or sick of the lovey dovey stuff at work, it always caused tension.
It`s always a bad mix, but it`s tough to stop, because these are the people you are with, you get to know them whether you want to or not, and sometimes you end up liking them (or, as my hip-hop-happenin` young friend DP would say, "But sometimes you just vibe someone, you go out for a drink, get your freak on"
Yeah, baby, yeah! GO DP, it`s your birfday, go DP, go DP (raises hands in the air and yells Woop! Woop!) |

Give me back my barren ! jks =-P
I klnow that dude , i got sacked from my job before, well 4th time back
But sometimes you just vibe someone, you go out for a drink, get your freak on
And before you know it your going to work together
Moops i`m glad that working with your partner did not end your relationship, that is a testament to the love that you have with each other
I alwa\ys think arguments in a relationship are good, as after the initial 1 month stage you are going to disagree and arguments however irrational help bring peoples strange foibles and thoughts to the surface |

99+ day(s) ago | 1/2/3. I have never dated anyone I worked with.. that is a HUGE no no. Never, NEVER work with who you are dating, that is doomed to fail and might cost you your job.
4. I have plenty of experience with dating someone I knew better`s sister (including the sisters of my ex girlfriends and my bestfriend`s sister), so the `ruined if you hurt her` situation I can relate to. :o) |

99+ day(s) ago | Heh, I worked at a pizza place for a couple years and became head manager dude, then we hired my GF as a pizza maker (we were daing for awhile before hiring her). So technically I was now her boss
Slightly different situation because we were dating previously, but things did not go well lol, you wouldn`t think things would be all that different, but we fought all the time, I`d get mad at her for not working hard and she`d get mad at me for being a "jerk" lol
She ended up leaving for a different job later, and we are still dating today a couple years later, so it wasn`t devastating to our relationship, but it was strained and FAR from enjoyable lol |
