Q: My boss is really hot, we flirt with each other all the time and recently we kissed. Should I take it to the next level- how will it effect my career? S from Virginia
A: Well S, as hot and steamy as your boss may be, lust is messy. In fact, one of my collegues had a hot boss too and one morning she went to grab him a cup of coffee. As she was walking back to her hot bosses office, a strange man was standing in his office doorway and gunshots went off. The hot boss was shot once in the chest and in the ear, as the bullet barely grazed his scalp. My friend quiet naturally dropped her cup of coffee in shock, and passed out on the floor. Upon awaking, investigators had pried open the hot bosses interoffice email. Apparently he, and a fellow female co-worker located in another department were involved in a steamy affair. The lone gunman, was the womans husband.
Moral of the story: The old adage of not mixing business and pleasure still stands. Date people outside the office to promote career longevity, your reputation and possibly your life. Unless of course, your husband is your business partner. Even then, have offices on seperate ends of the building.
