Something fun for Valentine’s Day!

Dating in the workplace happens more frequently than we think. And it’s inevitable. We easily spend a third of our day at work (and up to a third of our time sleeping, for reference) and eat at least one meal each day in the presence of colleagues. That’s a lot of time in one place! Sometimes, colleagues become so close to you that become like family. Or more than that.

Although dating a colleague comes with benefits, it also comes with a lot of challenges. Unfortunately, we don’t cover this in the conversation, but here are a number of articles that address this for your reference. Many of the articles present dating at work in a mixed way. Let’s face it – dating at work is like dating in general. It can turn out great, where you find the love of your life. Or it can turn disastrous where you meet a psycho.

Here are some articles on the topic:
