Suggest You - An Office Affair: Just Say No!
Imagine the horses all lined up at the gate in the last Kentucky Derby. Successful businessmen/women are just like thoroughbred horses. They must practice, run like the wind and sometimes be driven to make it first through the line. Like a horse race the majorities are losers and only a few are Triple Crown winners.We know that the majority of horses are not of the qual

You cannot fail when you give more than 100 percent. In whatever endeavour you are doing, always give more than one hundred percent. You will find that whenever you do this, your rewards will always be far greater than the extra effort you expended. Some people refer to this success concept as going the extra mile. What it means is that you need to give people more than they e
While I have worked with a handful of couples who met at work and ended up living happily ever after – at least so far anyways – having an office affair in my opinion is not a great long-term career decision.
Especially if it's a clandestine affair.
And it could be a career limiting decision with your employer if it goes REALLY bad.
I’m not referring to when two co-workers start seeing each other and where one or both of them are married to other people. If you need to be told that this is not a good idea, then an article probably isn’t going to help you see the light.
I’m specifically referring to when two co-workers who are both single start seeing one another.
Certainly it can be difficult to meet that special someone and it’s reasonable that when two single co-workers spend a great deal of time with each other that they might become attracted to one another.
Rather than trying to prove a point, I will instead list several possible outcomes of two co-workers having an office affair that you should think about before doing anything you may regret later on:
Think about the worst case scenario that could occur if things end poorly.
- Does the company have a policy against office relationships and if so, can you be fired if it becomes public knowledge (which it most likely will)?
- Could becoming involved with a co-worker create a possible conflict if you end the relationship badly? Will you still have to work closely with them in the future?
- If you are planning on having an office affair without letting anyone know, how will co-workers and management react if and when they find out especially if there is a company policy against it? How will it then look if it appears the two of you were also deliberately hiding it?
- And if you are thinking about having an affair with a subordinate, consider the possible legal ramifications if this person gets fired and blames you.

Q: I am interested in starting my own business. I have a business degree and lots of experience in my chosen field, but I don't know if I have the necessary skills to really make it on my own. Any advice?

No matter how much preparation we’ve put into our presentation, no matter how carefully we’ve paid attention to the details, and no matter how confidently we walk onto the stage or podium, Murphy’s Law will catch up with us and create an unexpected event or experience when we are presenting.

What would you tell a future potential employer about why you left your last job if it was because you were fired for having an office affair?
I’ve read some statistics that indicate that many couples admit to having met at work so certainly it does happen. Understanding your employer’s policy and what the possible consequences are for having an office affair before starting one are paramount.
Even if you aren’t fired, it could end up being a career-limiting move that lowers the opinion that co-workers and superiors have of you especially if things go bad and the gossip starts.
