Who's done it? Horror/awkward/good stories to share?

I did it. There was even a "no fraternization" rule, but it was a collge part time job, so I didn't give a crap. And it turned out pretty well, because I ended up marrying him.

I lost my virginity to a coworker at the time. Granted I was only 17 and still in high school it was the perfect friends with benefits situation.

"Don't shit where you eat!"

Great rule to follow. There is enough drama and stress at work without adding hooking up with co workers into the mix.

Umm yep pretty sure it wasn't that look, and even if it was 15 minutes later I would of gotten the email telling me to never talk to her again, I'm telling ya it was like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

There was a guy this summer. He was new to the labs and me being the boss and all, I had to train him.

Well....we made out a few times, but I flat out told him that I wasn't looking for a relationship. He said he wasn't either. It was just supposed to be two people helping each other out.

Next thing I know, like two weeks later, kid is all like "AlwaysSAI, I want to date you."

My response: "I thought you didn't date."
His response: "I will with the right person."
Me: "There is no way I am the right person."
Him: "You are...blah, blah, blah."

I told him no, that I meant it when I said I wasn't looking for a relationship. Then he goes into this whole speal about how I should thank god he is talking to me because I am damaged goods and no self respecting man would touch me with a ten foot pole.

Yeah, I told him to go away.

But, of course, I still had to work with him....as his boss...

One day, I chewed him and another girl out for not answering the phone when I was off the clock.
Ten minutes later, kid is all trying to talk to me and I'm giving him one word answers. He says he wants to be my friend and he's sorry for everything he said. blah, blah, blah...basically.

He IMs me one day and I told him to get a life and signed off.
He IMs me the next day and I told him to go away.

Haven't spoken to him since. But, I do still boss him around at work.

Hey, I meant it when I said I wasn't looking for a relationship. Little boy is just mad cuz his feelings got hurt and I beat him at his game.

(Currently, he's fooling around with the other female boss on a regular basis...oh what a winner...)

I've never done it, but I did have a co-worker ask to move in with me. The crazy thing about it is she had a 2 year old kid. I thought she was joking, but she was serious. She said that she and I could split the rent and she and the baby wouldn't be a problem at all.

I said "no thanks".

Yeah, I know. And the crazy thing about it is, when a woman is hitting on me, I'm a little slow in that area so it takes me some time to catch on.

After she asked me, I didn't realize that she hit on me and that she was for real until I got half way down the road on my way home from work. The next day was when she told me she was serious.

This happens quite frequently at my office because majority of employees are recent graduates around the same age, who may have just moved to the city, and are looking to work for some new people to "mingle" with. I can think of 4 couples off the top of my head in my office, not to mention all the rumors about who's hooked up randomly after happy hour !! hehe
