Would you sleep with your boss to get a promotion or does your sense of ethics overrides such a move? I'm in a tight corner!

what's his beard look like?

if it was a good promotion then yea i wud but if it only moves u up a lil bit a better offer will come:)

If SHE was hot? Maybe? If I didn't like her husband because he was a total A hole? CERTAINLY! If I was involved seriously, not in good conscious unless my wife ordered me to do it!

Women would file a sexual harasment case. You could too. She must be real ugly or you wouldn't be asking.

Hi --

You certainly are in a tight spot. Assuming you aren't going to be violating a vow or agreement (written, verbal or silent) with a current partner by doing so, it still holds many pitfalls.

Certainly by sleeping with your direct supervisor you are changing the terms of your relationship with them. Some people can separate personal and private, but it's a rare individual who has that much self-analytic power to control themselves according to the current situation with someone they are emotionally tied.

For Doing It -
Possible benefits - you can follow her up as she's promoted. Of course, you also have the current promotion in hand. Of course you have a new lover. Maybe there are more benefits, but I sure can't think of any.

Detriments - Maybe her boss finds out and doesn't like it? Maybe your co-workers find out and think you have an unfair advantage? Maybe corporate policy is against it and you lose the job (or she does or both)? Maybe she uses your job sometime in the future as blackmail to force your behavior? Surely there are more I haven't thought about.

Of course, NOT doing it could anger your boss. But I think if you say that currently you are focused on career and not on emotional relationships, blah blah blah, throw some chickstuff into it, see if you can water your eyes on cue when describing how MUCH you want her for your woman, but must sacrifice...maybe in the near future you will feel more secure and able to commit...especially if you got a new promotion!

Like I said, it's a tight spot. I don't know about any other benefits, but the detriment list is pretty long and I don't think I'm exaggerating. I've seen all these bad things happen in offices.

It goes against all my moral standards. Wouldn't you prefer get a promotion knowing that you've worked so hard that your boss HAD to give it to you, than knowing that you slept your way to that position.

I thought A man's Ego would keep him from doing something like that... sleeping his way to the top.

Nope. That's cause I'm retired and don't have a boss.

No way. Watch out. She may have a camera in her bedroom.

I take it shes an extremely large woman?

NO!!!!!!!!!I would not want that job with a boss like that.

How much of a raise are we talkin' here?

Hell no! If my boss expected me to sleep with him to move up in the company, I'd probably leave the company, become successful somewhere else... then I'd buy the former company and fire his ***! Take that you SOB!

Sex should only be had for pleasure, not for monetary gain, IMHO.

haha you're hilarious!

probably of average size...

No, reporting them and replacing them with a more ethical boss would be a much better deal.

No. And it would be really awkward if he asked me to.

Prolly not then...

so "it" does matter!
