Yes. It's not usually a big deal in most larger companies, I'd wager, although having sex with someone of a different ranking in the org structure could be downright dangerous for one's career.

WAY way way back in the dark ages of my life, when I was very young and stupid, and in the Army, I did hook up with a fellow soldier a few times. Once or twice it was a superior. No lasting repercussions, someone was either transferring in our out, or I was too oblivious to notice.

I wouldn't call it a "hookup" but,I've dated people I worked with before. It's never really been an issue,The relationship either outlived the employment situation or we were able to go our separate ways and still be civil to each other in the work place.

My mother met my step-father at her job. They've been married for 28 years.

I've never hooked up at a job BUT I've found most of my partners through work and have often worked with my partners.

Too close for comfort. My mother did... here I am. That will teach her a lesson.

If I could live my life over again, there'd be a lot of young ladies who would've gotten laid that didn't the first time around.

One time, it was awkward at first as I was the one to end it but we talked and smoothed things over and remained friends.

I served on a public health care committee and observed the Executive Secretary being promoted to Director of the non profit organization. I observed her off duty having and intimate encounter with one off the powerful board members. I knew the board member and that he was engaged to a women that I also knew. The fiance of the powerful board member forced him to resign the committee because of the relationship with the female director. The other board members decided that the female Director had to go and was out of a job with in days. She was using sex to gain a better paying job and it back fired.

I am straight and have never worked in anything but male dominant professions, so it has never come up.

I don't think I would if it did.

I had just divorced when I went to work for a small business. It turns out the employer had just divorced as well, and both of us were missing the comforts of the marriage bed, so after a few weeks, we ended up hooking up.

It changed the whole dynamic of our working relationship. Our personal interactions and our working expectations led to conflicts, and the whole thing became a nightmare.

I had moved to take the job, and I ended up having to relocate once more and find other employment. Learned my lesson. Bad idea.

I met my second wife at work. It took four years before we actually hooked up, but it was great. She became my wife, and mother to my two boys. Unfortunately, I lost her to leukemia 15 years ago. I think if you are going to hook up at work, you really should get an idea about who the other individual is. Is he/she just looking for a fling, or is he/she available for a relationship. I think one of the greatest things that happened between me and my wife during those four years before we hooked up, is that we both wanted to hook up but didn't let it happen. We would go out to dinner and just talk about life. We were both going through divorces and she had a son, so there was a lot going on. Just jumping into bed right away probably would not have worked out as it did with us waiting. The greatest thing was that after four year when we finally did hook up, it was mass fireworks.

I went through pretty much the whole office... I work from home now so it's just me and my right hand... LOL

I had a relationship with one if my soldiers when I was in the Army in 1988... I was a Staff Sergeant and she was a Specialist. I wasn't married and she was... her husband was also in the Army and had been cheating on her while he was in Korea. It only lasted during the time she worked for me. She eventually divorced him and we have remained friends, though not stayed in touch over the years.

Yes I did, it turned into a relationship, we would both be the first at the building and have coffee together in my office. She would bring breakfast and we would talk for about an hour before the rest of the co workers arrived. After about 6 months she seduced me and we shut my office door and had at it. Unlike a few experiences I have read here ours was a good one.

I would but I haven't

Usuallly when I work somewhere, I try to keep it professional. That’s just me, though.

I have met partners at jobs a few times. I met my ex-husband working together. None of these were great relationships, but it didn't matter to much as far as the jobs went. I think the relationships outlasted the job in most cases though. I wouldn't want to just hookup with someone from work. It seems like it would be awkward afterward.

My first husband was a coworker.

Have fun where you find it or where and when it finds you

When I've been involved with a co-worker, the relationship has always preceded the employment relationship for at least one of us. And I've sought workplace separation when that's happened.

During my teenage years, I was a waiter at the lical IHOP, and probably half the girls I dated worked there.

I might be a little more cautious now.

Yup, done it. Sadly I was guilty more than once. Not going into details though.

Ugh... Yes, and never again. I dated someone I met at work and that turned out to be my shortest, ugliest relationship--after which he tele- stalked me for a year. So glad he left town. I don't understand why there's not more of a taboo or stigma against dating coworkers--and I don't just mean across authority; I mean anyone you work with. If fall in love and a relationship is thatimportant to you, one of you can get a different job. Otherwise, why bother jeopardizing your employment or working environment? 2/10 would NOT recommend.

I did once. It was my shortest relationship (2 months - even my first relationship was a little over 6, and every other one has been a year or more straight or off and on after nearly a year), but very nice while it lasted. It ending had nothing to do with the fact that we were co-workers.
