'Lesson learned: don't sleep with people at work!'
,"If you've ever dated your coworker or boss, how did it go?" And the stories ranged from people getting their fairytale endings to ruined careers. Here's what they had to say:"I was 16 and had my first job. The guy I was working with was cute, and we hit it off and dated for about a year, but we were young, and it inevitably didn’t work out. But we stayed friends on social media and stuff. Fast forward nine years, and I run into him in a local grocery store.
"I had just gotten out of the hospital after a tumultuous 16 months, which ended with the deaths of three close family members, a lifelong friend, two beloved pets, and my father’s heart attack. I was fired because I couldn’t stop talking about my divorce at work. It may seem fair, except he was retained, even though he engaged in the same conduct AND his mistress was a subordinate. I would never, ever date anyone in the workplace.
"We worked together for a year before I changed jobs, and I missed being able to see him throughout the day. 10 years later, we're married and work from home full-time post-COVID. I'm thankful we learned how to share and balance work and home life and could avoid the learning curve of suddenly being with each other 24/7.""I dated a coworker, and it ruined my career. It started innocently enough.
