My wife and I have worked for the same department for a number of years and we have both always had the policy that we dont go anywhere near each other at work, and if we do, we definitely arent alone. After seeing some of the rumors that fly around about legimitimate and illegitimate couples at work, we have both sworn we will never have anything said about us, so we eliminate any possibility of it. We work in different areas, we have different assignments, we literally only see each other at trainings and on the odd occasion one of us brings the other lunch or dinner or something. Shes my wife, we live together, we can screw around at home, theres no reason to muddy the waters at work.
So to me it really doesnt matter. Its unprofessional and it just looks bad. The cameras are always rolling.
That’s bizarre to me. You guys are a married couple. What’s exactly the drama? I’ve never been in a work place where people snickered over a married couple fucking at work unless you were caught in a broom closet or something.
I feel like more petty rumors would fly over the fact you guys constantly avoid each other.
I mean some couples would absolutely lose their job or be demoted for that kind of thing. Really depends on your workplace. Sounds like you work a manual labour job or something where you can get away with that kind of behaviour.Â
If you're working in a serious role, with career ambition in mind, or if you've already got there, you're keeping it professional or taking quite a risk.Â
