Is it really impossible to prevent people from dating within the workplace? I've worked for many years at large and small companies and I've never done it, nor have the majority of my co-workers.
The HN demographic is skewed by a lot of young people who work for companies that are managed more like college dorms than real businesses. I think this gives some people a distorted perspective about what's realistic.
To be clear I'm not proposing a blanket ban on all workplace relationships everywhere. But if some employers choose to go that route it's not necessarily bad or unrealistic.

Should bosses ban friendships in the work place? I mean, horse play can impede work. At some point, bosses shouldn't be dictators of their workers' lives.
