Is it business or pleasure? New Workplace Romance Books We all know that workplace romances are a baaaad idea. Mixing your professional and personal lives can cause all kinds of chaos in both areas. Even if you think it is a secret, it isn’t – your coworkers ARE talking about you. Even if you think it isn’t affecting your work – your work is definitely affected. There can be legal issues and gray areas between relationships involving a supervisor/employee, between employees in different locations, and can cause tension anywhere at any time…especially when things head south. Which they most likely will (but not always!). However, why not live vicariously through someone else? Such as these amazing new workplace romance books! Whether or not a workplace has an ironclad “no romance” policy or whether they “strongly advise against it,” we know that there is no stopping that attraction. And isn’t the danger half of the fun? Assuming that everyone is on equal footing and there is no power imbalance, a workplace romance can add a lot of spice to your shift. If you are intrigued by the idea, check out these books that will definitely affect your productivity at the office!
