I would recommend not dating anyone you work with. Not saying that it won't end up a very happy relationship, but if it doesn't work out you suddenly have to see that person at work everyday and after a break up that's the last person you want to be running into.

Just heard a story of a guy who recommended his GF to his work place. The boss didn't want her there because of their relationship, but he persisted. They broke up 2 months after, it became ugly at the work place. An investor in the company was a good friend of the exBF and finally told the boss he had to get rid of the girl. The boss didn't want to, she was a good worker but his hand was forced. He let her go. She had just lost her roommate to her home and was suddenly out of a job - left with a mortgage to pay.

Just my 2 cents.
