non-fraternization
Another reason to leave.
There's a new policy in the workplace: non fraternization. It apparently took effect on January 1st. And it's retroactive to everyone.
No manager or supervisor can be in an intimate, romantic or sexual relationship with another manager or supervisor of the same account, or an employee directly under his supervision, or on the same account as well. To put it bluntly, boyf and I to be both in TS: no good.
We'd be counselled, then suspended for ten days so a decision could be reached on who transfers to another account. Of course, depending on whether there's an availability/opening. OR decide who goes. Is splitting up an option? Duh? What about those who are already married? And those who were already together and started out both as agents in the company? Either one was bound to be promoted. Now that one is, say, a manager, should they terminate their relationship? Should it suddenly become an issue: career over lovelife? Ugh.
This sucks. One, because no one is hiding whatever relationship they have, because it was not prohibited in the past. If not even encouraged.When boyf applied, we were open about the relationship. Everyone knew about it. And since i don't really handle his line of business, it was never really an issue. I guess, til now.
No, we haven't been singled out yet. No one has really called us in for a case con or whatever, but it bothers me. and it bothers a lot of other employees too.
I'm about to leave anyway. I'm just not sure if it will still have an effect on boyf since i'd still be around for a coupla weeks. I really hope not. He can't afford a 10 day suspension without pay. I'm not sure i could, either.
ON another topic, what is this puppy saying?
Take me Home!!!!
