Many people spend a lot of time at the office. So it’s only natural that a few bonds will be formed, whether they’re romantic or platonic relationships. Some even have a work wife or husband. A special someone who has become their ride-or-die from 9-5. This person is usually just a close friend and colleague. But there are times when the lines get blurred. And things get messy.
Like when one person found a half-naked pic of their partner in a sauna with an alleged “work spouse.” The partner was meant to be on a work retreat but meta data doesn’t lie. Even when people do. The person is now “freaking the F out,” especially since their partner is denying doing anything wrong. They want to know whether this behavior is normal or if there’s serious cause for concern. Bored Panda spoke to etiquette expert Rosalinda Randall for her take on the matter. Randall has loads of experience when it comes to how colleagues should conduct themselves around each other.
