Wrong about what? There are typically no corporate rules about dating a
co-worker, boss, or subordinate. It might not be a good idea, but it's not
against the law.

Most sexual harassment suits aren't matters of criminal codes. They are
civil suits.

If there are such rules, they're hard to enforce.

Enforcement is irrelevant. If the secretary sues the boss after being
dumped, she generally wins. We're talking civil suits, not criminal trials.

Sometimes the result is messy and sometimes the result is a lawsuit, but
that isn't the norm. Lots of people meet each other at work. I know a
couple that share a job. They work in the same office. I know another
couple who were boss/employee. It didn't workout, but no one sued. This
really sounds like corporate or gov't intrusion into people's personal
lives. I say it's none of their business unless it crosses the line into
quid pro quo.

No one is intruding in anyone's business. It's a matter of civil
litigation, Jon. Not lawbreaking. You have a tough time with that
distinction, don't you?
