Poll: Is it okay to date a coworker

December 13th, 2008 · 7 Comments · career, poll

I asked the question a few months ago, is it okay to date a coworker?  The majority of people were split between saying no and maybe.  Very few people said it’s a great idea.

Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.

    Normally I’d say it’s not a great idea if you work with the person all the time without a change.

    But when I met BF, we were co-workers but I was on an out of town project meaning that I’d leave after the project was over.

    In that case, it was OK for me.

    more info is needed to answer this question. Are either of you married?

    dang, i pushed submit too early.

    second question: are you both working in government?

    third question: is the person hot?

    I’d avoid it if you work directly together, if one person is the boss of the other person, or if it’s a tiny company. Don’t s–t where you eat.

    Valid questions but we’ll leave that for a more discerning poll.

    @LAL, that was the easy way out.

    1. if both married: then yes
    2. if in govt: then yes (this is more or less a given)
    3. if the person is hot: then hell yes

    Polls are too small to comment. I will write about it maybe on LAL musings where I think it’s more appropriate.
