Any opinions on dating someone you work with?

depends on how you define "work with." if its in the same building as 5000 other employees and shes in accounting and you're engineering, its fine. if shes on the same team as you, or its a small business, its not. and don't date anyone in your line up or down the management tree either.
 
i was afraid of these answers....

we're not on the same floor even, but she's part of my "elite lunch crew" aka we eat lunch together every day so i suppose that could be a problem should something happen...
 
I would say that it's probably not a good idea, dating someone you see often can get messy after the breakup, for example, since my gf broke up with me about a month ago she hasn't even acknowledged my existance when she see's me during the day, and it really infuriates me. If this woman/man works even closer to you.. could be very messy. Although, if the two of you have feelings for each other why not give it a shot? It's really a matter of whether your willing to risk some potential discomfort for the potential great times you could have with the person.
 
It cannot be done successfully. Ever. It might be ok for a while but it'll go down in flames, then you've gotta deal with her from then on. Take a cold shower then hit the bar and pick up a woman you wouldn't have to deal with should you break up.
 
Make sure to skim through your company's work policy (if they have one) some companies forbid this and it's grounds for termination.

It can happen since you don't work on the same floor but I personally would NOT recommend it.
 
no, elite lunch groups are not assigned, they are formed independently!


so, if i rephrase,

would simply ASKING for a date be enough to spoil whatever one might have already?

i assume that would change the way she thinks!
 
my friend's dating his boss(the work at micky d's) and so far so good, but it's gonna end badly, i can tell

I see a tarter sauce & mustard fight in the horizon.
 
sigh, a risk vs. reward thing, just like buying stocks or anything else. Others are right, if it's like a situation where you're in accting and she's in marketing, it's better that way just in case things don't work out. Still you have to wager it for yourself, you cross the line to see whats over there, good or bad there's no turning back.
