Office Romances

Valentine's Day is approaching again, and there might be more than a few employees waiting to see what the internal mail, as well as the post-man, might bring them.

Romantic relationships in the workplace are perhaps more common than one might think. A study in America has revealed that at least 70% of employees will date someone from work at least once in their career. Many employees meet their future husband, wife or partner at work. For instance, Barack Obama and Michelle Robinson met at a law firm in Chicago.

We shouldn't forget, however, that love hurts. Most of us know that, but what we might not know so well is that your hurt may end up being shared by your employer at any time from the first throes of romance to the bitter break up.
