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

        Not always a mistake I married Mrs. Maxxx 30 years ago - we met at work - the rest is history! (yes you do get a shorter sentence for murder, but the sex isn't as good!)

        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. :)

            As you work in an all male environment, that's very liberated of you. We're proud of you.

            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.

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

                                Getting emotionally attached to anything (animate/inanimate) is a foolhardy task.
