The Office Romance
By The Romantic Gentleman
It happens, it happens more frequently than you
would think, indeed the Vault survey says about
56% of people have had relationships at work.
That is not surprising, you spend the majority of
your waking hours at your job therefore is is the
most likely place to meet someone. Indeed, it is
more likely in isolated or high pressure
environments.
How many times have we heard about actors
falling for each other or the crew whilst away
filming or people on a project falling for each
other.
Though it does happen, we are all for romance
at the Perfect Gentleman, there are a few things
you should be consider before getting hot and
bothered by the coffee machine.

Know the Rules
We know it sounds like we are being a kill joy
before we have even began but this is an
important point. You need to know your
company's policy for office relationships.
In some companies and sectors it is banned,
therefore your passion could jeopardise your
career.
In other companies it may not be an explicit
written rule but an implicit one and the culture
may frown on it.
You might have to ponder whether or not the
risk is worth the romance.
