    I've made that same mistake over and over again... Mind you, so far, it has only been crushes, and I have never actually managed to get anywhere with them (goes without saying, I'm a programmer/nerd) :sigh:

      Generalizations like that are silly. Admittedly, I've never had a crush on a co-worker, but know quite a few couples who had met at work.

                        Nagy, pissing in anyone's beer is probably sacrilege, although with some mass produced "beers" you might not be able to tell the difference.

                          I did the opposite. My wife of 37 years now works in the same place as me. With the fact that we live 7 minutes from the office and drive a hybrid, our commuting costs are really low! ... and it's extra discouragement for workplace liaisons. :)

                              No, not ALL male environment, and that's actually the problem. As soon as a girl sets foot inside the door (on some occasions even before), you can count on me getting a crush on her... :sigh:

                                It's okay to have a crush on someone you work with... as long as they don't catch you looking in their window when they're taking a shower.

                                        I believe this comes under the moral heading of "Don't Piss in Your Own Beer"

                                        I heard it as "never sh1t on your own doorstep".

                                          A crush would leave a bad stain. Too bad it wasn't a 7-Up.
