me and my husband are working in the same office, yet in different department. i like it because, i see him everyday and got to easily talk to him when i needed to. the only disadvantage i noticed is when we have disagreements, our officemates could recognized it and the whole office will know it in no time without us telling it. how do you handle situations like that if you were in my shoes?

Hi, I feel you should leave back your disagreements at home and should not behave in a way which reveals that something is wrong with you both in the office. It is better that you behave normally as the other days which you should discuss at home before leaving for office that under no circumstances will you make people guess things. Each of your colleagues will no doubt be having situations like this in their lives too, but as you are working together it is revealed, so there is nothing to worry much about it.

thats the price of having your partner under the same organization, this is also the reason why some companies do not allow marriages among their workers because no matter adjustments the couple will make, their will always be a situations when your family problems will be extended inside your workplace. with regards to your concern, you have no other means but to accept the fact that your relationship problems will always be an open book in your office, you just have to live with it.

me and my wife used to work together. i am in a band and she is our singer. it is hard for us to work together for the management does not like seeing us sitting together or having sweet nothings together. we seldom fight for i am not the jealous type of person and she is not too. we understand if there are guys who wanted to know her name and if there are ladies who asked mine. its park of the work. what is hard is sometimes i love to kiss her but i cant har har har. she no longer work she decided to be a stay at home mom since she gave birth. our son will be turning four.
