Dating the boss? 27% of workers have done it, study shows

While dating a boss or “higher up” poses a variety of complications, nearly 30 percent of American workers are guilty of doing just that, a new survey revealed.

While more than half of American workers reported having a crush on a coworker, 27 percent admitted they acted on this crush and sparked a workplace romance, according to findings released Friday by the Society for Human Resource Management.

The data was gathered from a survey of nearly 700 American workers conducted by NORC at the University of Chicago's AmeriSpeak Panel, a nationally representative panel of U.S. adults.

Never dated a subordinate but I did smash one on my team and a few in my division

 

[Rell Lauren]

Date on your level, never below. The consequences are too big for both parties especially if the lesser starts receiving preferential treatment and perks no one else gets.

Never had sex with a co-worker but me and my gf started workin together like a year in. Terrible decision. Sex in all of the exotic places of the restaurant was fun and all but, could not even, and i mean LITERALLY could not even smile at another girl or she would wild the fukk out.

Then again, when supervisor called to tell me i got the job I had to remove my face from a side chicks p*ssy to answer the call, so maybe she was justified in wildin

I dated a co-worker as well. Still managed to get promoted which was ironic because dating colleagues is frowned upon.

That was the younger version of me. Never again. Everybody needs space and when you’re not only working together and then going home together it gets real excessive.

Incels get that promotion and the puss will come
