I feel like such an Idiot!

The lack of car and money thing IS an issue. She will drive everywhere and pay for everything. Heck, she knows how small your paycheck is because shes the one who gives it to you. I see this ending in heartbreak and job loss.

When I was working at a movie theater years ago, I remember a fellow co-worker getting involved with one of the managers. Corporate found out about it and gave the manager an ultimatum: either leave the job so you could still see her or transfer to a different location. He did the latter and the last I heard, they got married. The funny thing is, he was around 30 years old at the time (the manager) and the female co-worker was my age at the time (around 18). He was also into comic books and lived in his mom's basement.

Was she ugly?

 

[Prison Mike]

Was she ugly?

she wasn't a supermodel, that's for sure. I was amazed that he got ANY girl, really.

 

[Erzengel]

I see three problems with you getting this girl;

1. You don't have a car, so you can't take her anywhere
2. You don't have money, so you can't take her anywhere
3. She's your manager, so she probably can't go out with you anyway, if you were at the same level at your job, maybe, but different levels=bad news

What AF said.

Even if you had this magnetic personality, I don't see this being a very good idea. She's your boss and while this isn't a permanent job for you, you really shouldn't do anything that would jeopardize it. Especially since it took you this long to find this job.

Here's a golden rule that applies to many situations, be it work or flatting:

Don't screw the crew

Don't listen to them, JAL. Follow your heart. Don't be contained by the petty rules of society and the workplace. They are for the lesser and the closed minded.

 

[Erzengel]

There are always exceptions like for instance if the woman is just really, really hot.

But in all seriousness, I don't agree with dating withing the workplace unless there are extenuating circumstances, as in you work for the same company different facilities. But even then, sometimes it's not a great idea.

If JAL was 18 - 19 and she wasn't a manager, I would have told him to go for it because it's just some burger joint. But like I said earlier, he has trouble finding this job, don't f' it up by trying to make it with the boss.

 

[Ronny Shade]

on the other hand, ****ing the boss could get you a promotion.

what are you trying to say?

 

[Erzengel]

I'm speaking in metaphors here Ronny, you have to keep up.

 

[Ronny Shade]

heart = wang?

This idea that comic fans cant get smokin chicks is rather silly. Heck, theres a couple of gorgeous girls that post here that are as big of dorks as the rest of us. If the girl isnt a dork (I use the term as a compliment) then you have to just tone it down until she likes you, and then hit her with the surprise that you have a life size rendition of Supermans funeral in your den once you get engaged.

I STRONGLY reccomend against trying to date your boss. Much like my prom, it can only end in tears.

However, people are easy...and figuring out your angle is all it takes. Can you draw? Llet the girl see you draw "accidentally" and when she goes on about how great it is, theres your opening, AND it gives you a (much later) angle to get her into comics. Everybody has SOMETHING about them that makes them interesting to others. If you dont, go find something. Its kind of a lame thing, but you have to accentuate what makes you awesome when you first meet someone. Let them realize what a bum you are later on. Dont talk about your love of Nazi propaganda films and encyclopedic knowledge of Dragonball Z episodes...let them find that stuff out on their own.

You took your boss to prom? [/pimp]

When I type a lame joke, I rarely have a follow-up ready to go...so lets say...Yes, yes I did...and he was quite the dancer for a port-a-potty cleaner.

I've always liked the saying "Don't dip your pen in the company ink"

I've always liked the saying "Don't dip your pen in the company ink"

Yeah that's a good one too, there's also:

Don't poke the payroll

 

[Eggyman]

I've always liked the saying "Don't dip your pen in the company ink"

Crude: Don't sh** where you eat.

Makes plenty of sense, in an obvious kinda way.

What about...Don't kiss the hand that feeds?

I prefer the saying don't put your penis in your boss's vagina.

 

[Eggyman]

Ok, ok. This is JAL (Appletoe) we're talking to.

He'll be coming on saying 'WTH?!!1, I dont evan have ink at my j0b. jusd pencils '

JAL, Don't F*** your boss.

 

[Heretic]

I prefer:

Dont get Herpes where you make Slurpees.

Okay...I got nothin.

 

[Lemon]

Now you're just making them up.

I wish, one of my old bosses actually told me that one .
