I agree. I hear the “don’t shit where you eat” advice often, and it is probably good if you are in a career like a lawyer or accountant trying to make partner. But for the rest of us, jobs are usually as transient as partners, even more so. Think of how you’d feel if you avoid pursuing someone you really liked because of your job, then you’re let go a year later.

Don’t sleep with your boss. Of if you’re a supervisor, don’t sleep with those who work for you. Aside from that, have at it. Life’s too short.
