slight change in topic.....

my bro told me that in the US, a lot of companies have strict policies against office affairs especially when it is a boss with a subordinate. So much so that when the employee is hired, they have to sign a contract of some sort that they are not to engage in such behavior and it is grounds for dismissal. Also, if they were fired from a job for adultery, they would have a hard time getting another job bc they are black listed and would not likely be able to get references. Is this true/?

Standard (for bosses/subordinates).

Slim, how old are you? The facts seem to suggest that you're in your late 30s at a minimum, but your disposition suggests that you're 12. Some offices have rules against dating/sexing co-workers. This has absolutely nothing to do with adultery. Whether or not the fling is adulterous has zero bearing on these situations.

Mt bro told me this...he said specifically adultery. 2 single coworkers can have a relationship but not 2 people who arent married to each other.I have never worked in a company before so I have no idea.
