Would you ever give up a relationship for a job?

Would you give up your job or possible promotion if a relationship may be possible with a subordinate that you were interested in?
 
Not a chance! I don't ever date my co-workers to get myself in that situaion to begin with.
 
How many c-notes we talkin'?

I would give up my job for an established relationship. If my guy wants or needs me to move with him somewhere, or vice-versa, so be it. I would hesitate with a new relationship. And I would probably say no for "the potential of" a relationship. I also find it a little silly that companies try to forbid or regulate the interpersonal emotions of their staff. I'm not being paid to make myself devoid of emotion. So had I met my guy at work, I assure you we would have still figured out we're right for each other.
 
For the scenario suggested in the opening post, I wouldn't have a relationship with a workmate.
If I was in a relationship though, I'd never give that up for a job.
 
Considering I may find myself in this situation, I don't know. I left town for 6 months on a contract position, and although I was only 3 hours away, it was a bit rough on the both of us. The relationship is fine, and we're still good, but I don't think we could handle another distance like that again.

And considering he's in school, and I'm done, depending where the job was...they'd either need to offer his program (in a manner he'd be willing to switch to), or it would look like a tough decision to make...

I don't know, to be honest.
 
Depends on the job/promotion and the person I am looking to have a relationship with.

If it's a small jump and I am already in the relationship, then yes, I could probably forego the career jump.

If it's a big jump or a career boosting role, and I am only looking at starting the relationship, then probably not.

I may ask why the other person doesn't consider leaving the job to start the relationship with me.

;)
 
Depending on the job, maybe. But I would never have a relationship with a co-worker to begin with. Cuz it will most always end up in a bad out come.

Have seen it happen many times to some friends and other people. So not good idea to mix work/relationship--for us anyways
 
I have this 'don't shit where you eat' mantra. That doesnt mean the temptation has never crossed my mind once or twice.

Otherwise, I feel a bit at-odds with my coworkers. I rather keep the interpersonal stuff at bay.
 
When I lived in Atlanta I worked @ a Call Center and I had a Fuck-Buddy relationship with a Floor Manager...Had it grown into something else neither one of us would have quit because quitting a job because you're Fucking a co-worker is not what the Average Man does...

Hetero-relationships on the job are a different story. The Female Manager tends to be more nervous @ getting caught so she will either tone down the relationship, end the relationship or transfer the Guy into another department...I've seen this happen and in the end she was still fired because the STUPID Dude she was seeing blabbed to another Male co-worker and he stabbed the both of them in the back.......

You can't tell your bizness to everybody on the job....2 Men are waaaay better @ keeping their relationship a secret on the job vs a Man & a Woman...Just my opinion....
 
i would NEVER date my coworkers. i never understood why someone would do that or would want to work at the same place their s/o is working at where they're working side by side with them. i think that's unprofessional especially if it involves a manager position.

Be careful....I said the EXACT same thing when I was your age....I always thought my Floor manager was Good-Looking and that was that. Maybe for a week or more I was talking to this Guy on a Gay/Bi tele-line service. He invited me over to his house and guess who walked out to my car?...My Floor Manager...

I almost died in my car...He told me to come in and the rest is history...But you should NEVER say NEVER because you never know when you're gonna be in a situtation that you never saw coming....

you're very right about that. i don't know what the future holds or what i would do in a given situation but i just can't see myself doing that at all. the only way that would happen is if i got raped or something like that. i don't like women and i doubt a guy is going to throw himself on me.
