Time for something different.
I am being interviewed tomorrow by NPR about office romances for Valentine’s Day. There is pretty compelling that, because people are working increasingly long hours and because many occupations that were once male dominated now have growing numbers of women (law is a good example) that many romances start in the workplaces. I know that different companies have different rules and I know that there are some legal land mines — and beyond that,when relationships fall apart, bad things can happen to one or both parties. But I also know happy couples who have met on the job and have gone to have long and loving relationships.
So, if you have a nice story about yourself, or about someone you know, who feel in love at work, I’d love to hear it. You can post it as a comment below if you want to share it with everyone, or just send me an e-mail if you don’t want everyone to read it.
Thanks! As I told Jessica from NPR this morning, it is nice to think about something other than assholes for a change! But I am still thinking about assholes, of course, and Morning Edition will be doing something on the book in a couple weeks.
