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 the company have a policy against office relationships and if so Authentic Logan Couture Jersey , 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 Authentic Joe Thornton Jersey , consider the possible legal ramifications if this person gets fired and blames you. Having an office affair can be considered by some employers to be a case of very bad judgment on the part of the people who take part in them. It could be grounds for firing especially if the position you hold is high profile enough to possibly become a public embarrassment to the company.
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聮ve read some statistics that indicate that many couples admit to having met at work so certainly it does happen. Understanding your employer聮s policy and what the possible consequences are for having an office affair before starting one are paramount.
Even if you aren聮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.
