Yes. I married her, so I guess it worked out.

Mutley...me too.

Been together for over 20 years and can honestly say I am happier now than the day I married her.

It's the person that matters, not what they do, or where you meet them or anything else.

That said, I'd be pretty sure you want to move forward before you go near someone at work, or at least keep it to yourselves until you're reasonably settled. No-one at our work knew for the first 8 months except her very best friend who also worked with us. In fact, our mutual boss thought we hated each other. We used to argue a lot at work.....then leave, kiss and make up then go home to her place. It was kind of funny really.

Have I just tuned in to the Bold and The Beautiful?

I have flings at work all the time

Oooh....they don't count if you're on your own in the mens toilet.

ha ha, flog, fling...to some it is the same thing..


Gold that your boss thought you hated each other DICKO, the look on his/her face when it was announced would have been priceless..

Someone said to me a long time ago:
'Never get your meat where you get your bread'
A good motto to stick to.

Sexy.

Let me see. I work with Engineers with 99.99999999996% of them male so, No!

Sturty6ers - I work in I.T so there are very slim pickings....the only female in my group is a Lesbian!

Hey.....I met my wife in IT!!!!!!!

Work in finance and most of the chicks here are a fair bit older.

She must of been the only decent one then!! ;)

I got to work to get away from the missus, not find another one jeez :P

Prefer not to screw the crew

Have been known to dip the pen in the company ink from time to time..

I'm a boss had plenty of them.

Still scouting the office. Quite a nice selection though.

Very dangerous pastime - playing hide the sausage at work - always tends to go off the boil.

I did for a bit...but it was not only a co-worker it was the bosses daughter....well lemme just say...not recommended unless your not fussed about job if it doesnt work out

bb gun 'Never get your meat where you get your bread'.

On the contrary - Nothin better than being the snag in the middle of a late night sandwich after the pissy chrissy work party .

Yes, I've had office romances. Not here. At another place I worked at. Good-looking ones, as well. But they're not a good idea, office romances. It's like shitting on your own doorstep. I've had loads of offers here, but I go 'no way, distracting'. And that's actually one of the major arguments against letting gay men into the army. And I haven't got a problem with that, right. A gay man's not gonna put me off, I can look after myself. But if you're in battle is he gonna be looking at the enemy or at me, going "Ooh... he looks tasty in his uniform"

I'm not homophobic, all right? Come around, look at my C.D collection. You'll find Queen, George Michael, Pet Shop Boys. They're all bummers.

Manager's Assistant, or Assistant Manager?

Assistant to the regional manager

Will there ever be a boy born who can swim faster then a shark?

I don't think it's yours to be really commenting on the armed forces and the like - i'll bet you have never even served. I would (Royal Navy) if i could - but i don't make the the height requirement (i suffer from acute darwfism), used to drive forklifts for a while though...

" and I don't agree with that in the workplace"


by the way anon 702...i think you will find gareth keenan was quoting a humorous part of the office.

bahahahahahaha!

Well done Gareth, even a couple of bites! One of the greatest shows ever, that one. I was p*ssing myself reading every line of your post and reminiscing of shows past.

Just one more season Ricky, please! Do it for the team

This is slightly diverting the topic, but I can't believe there's so many people around outside of here who find the US version of The Office funnier than the original UK version. Some people don't even know the UK version exists!

The first season of the US Office I absolutely loathed as they were repeating all the UK story lines with different actors, just seemed 2nd rate, cheesey. But once they started developing their own story lines and characters, I came around, and now think it is absolute gold, better than the UK version. (although given a longer run for the UK version it could of been a different story)

IMHO, Season 1 and 2 of the UK Office were better than the US.

But the US seasons 3 and 4 were some of the funniest stuff ever.

The Gay Witch hunt episode was a classic. Just some of the pranks that Jim pulled in later series were hilarious. Faxing Dwight from his future self :-).

The "Conflict Resolution" episode at the end of season 2 was a classic where Jim pointed out a heap of the pranks he's pulled.

Dwight : "This morning I hit myself in the head with the Phone. I suspect this is Jim's doing"

Jim (to the camera) : " Yeah, that one took some time. Every day, I put a nickel in the handpiece of Dwights phone until it got heavier and heavier. Then one day I just took them all out"

:-)

I work for the family business......so no.

DICKO - for future reference - typed recounts of scenes from The Office are not funny.

Please stick to providing breaking basketball news out of Melbourne, which you do so well.

I thought the intra-company basketball game on the US version was pretty funny (especially Steve Carrel`s carrying on and his character`s stereotyping of the big african-american guy - who in the final wash-up couldn`t play and didn`t even like basketball...)...


From what i saw though - on the main, the US version couldn`t hold a candle to the UK version Ricky Gervais and Mackenzie Crook hit the nail on the head with their characters (not to mention Finchy!!!)...

As long as your not fu.king them on work time(or on the desk in your office) , I see no real issue, but would get weird if it didn't work out.

"DICKO - for future reference - typed recounts of scenes from The Office are not funny.

Humble apologies, doc.

thedoctor, you need to relax mate. I nearly wet myself reading DICKO's post. I thought it was bloody funny!

Hey if you want to rid yourselves of any spare office girl affairs, post their phone numbers here and I would be happy to knock em up and over for you.

mmm Interesting - We'll I say never shy away from a feed, cause you never know when you will go hungry. Obviously there are risks...but it's like everything in life. The only concern that I would have is if for some reason it turns out ugly, then what a bummer to be changing jobs (only if you enjoy working there that is).
