By thealjazeera •
Hi all QLers,
i am working in a office, my wife has been offered a job in same office, and if she works we both will be next to each other, i wana know if husband & wife work at same place is it a advantage or disadvantage ? kindly advice im not able to decide, thanks in advance
thealjazeera...are you a sadist?
Or do you enjoy being tormented 24x7.....!!!
Benifits....oh yes....you can plan dinner way ahead.....
and _ _ _ on the office desk.
don't even think about it!
it is soooooooooo difficult-and dangerous for the marriage. i worked with my husband , for 6 years and all problems we bring up to home + plus we lost all friends and finally we reach to the point to do-not miss each other any more.Keep some secrets in your life's and thats moments when you waiting your wife to cam from the work or to pick up hear from.when you are 24 hours together ask your self "when i will have time to miss her?."Good luck
In some companies where I have worked, if a couple meet at work and are getting married, one of them will actually be expected to leave the company. It's in their Contract.
I imagine this is because it isn't easy to be unbiased in the workplace, for one thing, and for another it may not be a healthy situation to bring work problems home (especially if you have different ideas about the problem)! Just means you can't get away from your day job and relax at home, chat about different things which happened to you during the day etc.
That's if you are a couple who speak at home anyway! :P
What Happy 2x meant is Conflict of Interest. It's an important issue that must be considered.
I think the only situation where it would be more advantageous for husband & wife to work at the same place is when you run a family business.
good, one problem ruled out.
my wife wont be interacting with lot of people, she has been working since last 2 years where she used to interact with few men
thanks a lot to all of u for ur valuable advice im thinking bout it, ill wait for more suggestions, thanks
First you should ask your wife's opinion in that matter. You should both sit together and discuss how important this job to her and to your budget. If there are other offers, you will need to consider them as well.
Also, many companies have regulations banning immediate relatives to work in the same office and for the same company sometimes, unless in different branches or separate departments.
Please consider these issues:
- Can you both guarantee objectivity and separation between work and home?
- Can you both handle closeness all day and night long?
- Are you both highly competitive which might cause jealousy between the both of you and might affect your relation?

thealjazeera, will you be able to handle the attention she might get from other men.(Don't know whether she will be interacting with people) or if she gets critisised for some mistakes. You may like to consider this aspect.
take a pal s advice....dont!!!!
you cant scoot to watch the football match.
you have to do work at home and job.
you cant do a boys night out with the guys.
and just imagine when you ve had a quarrel at home and you want peace of mind in the office.....ROFL
do it right - the first time!
Oh...ummm...well there are advantages and disadvantages.....not sure about the advantages...one disadvantage will be that you find yourselves constantly talking about work, out-side of work at home etc. which will drive you both batty...I guess if you have friends and interests, try to get away from each other as much as possible outside of work.

we both will be in same office so we will be next to each other
Do you mean you will be sitting next to each other in the same room or working in the same company?
