Have you ever slept with a supervisor?

Edited by me

No, I haven’t.

What does watching movies have to do with sex with your supervisor? She had Nexflix and you didn’t?

@gailcalled I just assumed there would be some benefit based on popular culture reporting.

I still don’t understand. What does “popular culture reporting” mean?

@gailcalled I believe, after watching television and movies, and reading novels, there would be some tangible career benefit to sleeping with a supervisor. In reflecting on my own experience, I have not seen any, and I am curious if any one else has experiences of a similar nature that impacted on their career in either a positive or negative way.

So you are asking for real experiences as opposed to fictional ones? That’s probably a better reality check.

After my superior left his position (it was an academic community) and I stayed on, he came back to visit, invited me to lunch and make a clumsy pass at me in a dark restaurant. I didn’t take it seriously, but I was very young and quite shaken by the experience. I was a new bride and he was a middle-aged married guy with two kids.

Unfortunately, no. :/

Supervisor? No. But a few years ago I was really drunk and a friend walked home with me, then got me in my bed, and said she was gonna go home after that. But she ended up sleeping on my couch. She sure acted like a boss in the morning though, giving me all these lectures. didn’t get any sex out of it, at least not that I know of She was a damn good friend.

Never slept with a boss or a supervisor though. All the ones I’ve had, I don’t see how that would benefit me, and I like to think I have more dignity than that, even if it could benefit me. which I probably don’t, but wtv
I like books and movies, and while, probably, stuff like that has happened more than often enough, what you see in fiction probably isn’t a good reflection of its equivalent in the real world. I mean if it did, you’d probably get a raise, or at least not lose your job, but then you’d get buried alive in a coffin and would only have a small rodent water bottle to keep you sane. XD

Never! I consider that to be insanity at its finest! No offense. lol

@Coloma agreed. Because I did it. And a few years later, I had no job and he was promoted. What a dumbass thing to do. There are so many other people out there, and if you just are looking for fun, there they are. If it’s “true love” then one of you should probably quit or work it out with superiors. and my idea of true love lately is pretty low. like there is not any

@janedelila Haha, oh wow…well, we all make mistakes, I slept with a “friend” once and it was never the same. Life lessons. ;-)

No.

No. Colleagues, yes. Supervisor, no.

As always @Berserker, I love you.

Consider this my usual semi-awkward admission of love for you.

rodent water bottle indeed.

Not a supervisor, just a subordinate. That was before it was “illegal”, and there was no quid pro quo expected. We’d been dating for a while when I was promoted.

@Imadethisupwithnoforethought Sounds like you were expecting favoritism from our boss. That would be improper on her part, and prostituting yourself if that’s why you slept with your supervisor.

@zenvelo I have had sex with several female supervisors, I am wondering if this has ever turned out well.

Came close but didn’t. I think there is more likelihood of negative outcomes than positives. Who will get fired when things go pear shaped?

No, thank god. It’s weird enough when it’s a co-worker, must be intolerable when it’s a boss.

No.

Yes. I worked at a company for a few years and me and the boss “had a thing”. You know crushing on each other. When I resigned we shagged on his desk. That was the end of that, he turned out to be a hot boss and a crappy boring person.

@Imadethisupwithnoforethought Define success in your escapades. Were you looking for a relationship and none occurred? were you looking to be promoted or paid more? Or did you get your rocks off and you were each satisfied?

I once slept with a visor, can’t say it was super though, had marks all over my forehead…

Never a boss, but several co workers over the years… at least one of which had seniority on me…. if that counts.

Not I, but at least two of my supervisors had an affair with a co-worker. If either of them got something else of value out of it, it wasn’t apparent.

Now Dad, on the other hand, had a long-term affair with his secretary. At Christmas, he would give her lavish gifts. Fortunately, his secretary was Mom. :)

I had the opportunity once – she was the boss, I was the underling. We were on an overseas business trip; no one would have ever known. She was sending the signs that she was open to it, but I thought to myself – this can only end up bad. So I went back to my hotel room.

Neither she nor I ever mentioned it again.

Only my wife, if that counts.

I’m afraid I never did. I feel so boring reporting this, but so it goes. I’m not sure there were any supervisors I was interested in, anyway.

No, but I did have the opportunity, and almost did it. The guy actually asked me to consider becoming his mistress, and told me he’d ‘take good care’ of me. Sort of a kept woman. I was pretty hot for him, but ended up turning down his offer. Not for any high minded reason, either, I’m afraid. He kept me waiting, and I was a bitch at the time.
