How fit is she?
Use the astraboy fitness scale of 1 - minger or 10 - Elizabeth Hurley is a dog compared to her. the outcome of the astraboy fitness test will affect the advice given.

I am going out with a woman from the same company, we dont have to work closely together though....
It can be a little awakward at times, esp if you have had a bit of a tif.
Just think though, you will see her every day, all day, then in the evenings too.... for some people, this will be overkill and will b a large spanner in the works.... it is not a problem for me though, I enjoy seeing her more
Hope this helps

At one point when working as a summer student over the summer months in 2 years I managed to have/have relationships with 6 female employees (all at different times though !)
One of whom was the boss (me 21, her 34 and still fit) .. my advice
don't do it .. nightmare when things go wrong.

I was secretly dating/living with someone i worked with. Top girl (hello jennie) that all the blokes fancied. Keep it discreet and make rules to not act couply and it'll be okay.

If you're the boss and shes the underling then you can still have some fun if it all goes wrong. For example, all the sexual harrasment and discrimination at work forms should be kept in the bottom draw of a filing cabinet. This will enable you to have a cracking view of her ar$se when she bends down to get to them.

LOL @ Doofus
You advise not to do it, yet you did it 6 times I bet it would have been 7 given the chance

I met my wife at work - for 2 years (dating 6months, living together for a year) we had desks next to each other.
If you do it, you have to respect the feelings of everyone around you. Its unfair to bring your relationship/arguments into the office. Several times we would have blazing rows in the car going to work, leave them at the door, be fine all day at work, then pickup up exactly where we left off
If you're the boss you have a responsibility to her and your other staff, not just to satisfy your own fantasys
Can you honestly say you wouldn't favour her ?. Do you decide pay awards ? If it goes sh*t shaped, is she going to be able to carry on working in your department ? Could you work with her after a break up. It is a risk and will cause unanticipated stress into the relationship.
If its just a fling I would say steer clear - Its not fair to her or others. If it could be more, then have fun but keep it outside the office.

frisby,
We only get one shot at this thing called life. A good relationship is harder to find than a good job. Go for it and sod the consequences if it goes t1ts up.

I'd say go for it...
met my wife at work too...
You are the boss so if it goes belly up, you can just shrug it off...
espeically if shei s fit...
lifes is too short to think twice..

I've made abity of a habit of doing this I'm affraid. You know the odd trip to the disabled loos for a quickie, groping in the lifts etc . Can be quite good fun. Can get a bit tricky if they live with you too !
With hindsight I won't be getting my money where I get my honey... but there is this dirty goth girl who sits near me..no !!!!!!!
