Easy Poll: would you want to work.....

...with your SO?
DW and I have been lucky to work with each other for the past 3 years.... this is her last week we drive in together, have lunch etc... as she found a much better job (actually the same but more $$$)

i will miss her

would you want to work together...?

i think its nice. we spend more time together and we save on gas

No, I wouldn't want to work with DH. I think it's important for us to have parts of our lives that are separate. I also think that we often have slightly different personalities at work, and it would be strange to see one another in a work environment.

In reality, we could never work together. He works in computers and I'm going to be a child psychologist.

No. I LOVE the fact that we work close enough to each other that we're able to meet for lunch a couple of times a week and can carpool if needed, but to work in the same bldg....eekk!

You could hypothetically work in the same facility.
My husband works in the IT department of a psychiatric hospital.

I would like it if DH at least worked in the same city!

I think I would prefer to either work in unrelated jobs in the same company or very closely in our own business. We work well together, but I wouldn't want cowrkers all in our personal bussiness.

I said no, but actually DH almost worked where I work! I work for the largest employer on LI, so if he worked in another area I would probably never see him, but we would have the benefit of commuting together, etc. In the same department would be a little too close for me.

Good point! I could deal with that, if we were in completely separate departments.

We also used to work together, but now I wouldn't want to all the time. We'll be in the same field, (me a teacher, him a school psychologist) but even if he's assigned to whatever school i'm working at, i'd probably rarely see him.

Me too. I am not the same person I am at home that I am at work.

We met at work and it had it's good & bad points.

We worked together for 6 years before one of the managers I supported made DH's life absolutlet miserable until he quit!! Then a few months later offered me a job I couldn't resist.

It definitely can complicate things, in addition to having a daily lunch buddy!

I agree with this !!

I am glad we don't work together - not because I would mind seeing him around, but I wouldn't like everyone being in our business, more or less

BUT it would be nice if we both worked in NYC .. to meet for lunch once in awhile, to break up the monotany of the day, etc

I would also enjoy being able to commute with him, I think it would make that a little bit easier to deal with and be able to spend a little more time together

That is So what I was gonna say. I would LOVE to work with FH, but I don't think I would get any work done EVER! He is too cute - he would be such a distraction

I have gone in to work with my fiance (he works in his family's business) and helped with stuff, and I liked being there and spending as much time as i can with him. We dont really get on each others nerves.

DH and I used to work in the same bar. I enjoyed it, but we only worked together on a handful of occasions. I would like to spend more time with him, but I don't think that a work situation is how I would like to accomplish it.

I have however always wanted to be in a show with DH. That would be fun!

Re: Easy Poll: would you want to work.....

oh..sorry for the confusion...we work in different deptarments but on the same floor. we cant see each other from where we sit, but a short trip down the hall..and she is there.

we dont need to visit each other as we have instant messageing, email and a phone. if we are in the area, we will stop in and ssay hello

We never worked together, but now we work 3 blocks away from each other. It's nice :) Cuz we take the train together and eat lunch sometimes.
