    For this reason shall a man leave his father and mother and "cleave" to his wife. The samething apply to the wife too for two shall become one,that is a divine transposition.Hence, nothing stops spouse working 2gether.

    jeanie dear,

    Personally i would not advice you to employ your spouse to work with you, for so many reasons.

    1. If the company has a problem, it affects the both of you, especially if there is no other source of income.

    2. If you're working, you know how it is in the office, the crude remarks and jokes, especially if u're a female, so imagine how it'ld look like if your spouse is working with you.

    3. to me it reduces the respect you have for each other, especially if one of the spouse is the boss of the other.

    So, i'll advise anyone who is thinking of doing so to think very well, as a marriage that is not very strong may collapse under the strain of working together, and no work is worth risking a peaceful home for.

    Ciao

    For me it is not advisiable apart from the risks factors involved there are also the following to consider.

    Setiments will creep into your organisation if you are to lay-off workers you are so sure is not going to be your spouse even if she is not capable of running it. Her percieve enemies become your enemies even if they are your best staffs.

    What about pride and respect? These things will rapidly die as she/ he is bond to talk things that might destroy your relationship for example how you behave in bed .What happens when your spouse is persistencely late to work? Pick on staffs simply because she is the boss spouse. Will you remove her?

    There is always the tempation that you two are going to do things that are not ethnical in the office.

    Depending on the size of the firm.If its a single branched firm,its not advisible due to distraction on both sides. Another reason is that working in the same firm with ur spouse especially a woman has its allied challenges.I am not a male chauvinist neither am a misogynist but we all know that when God created man,God rested.But since God created woman,neither has God nor man taken any rest.Althou they are important devils in the lives of men(Behind every successful man,is a woman),But from the standard point,no man should work with is spouse in d same workplace if he really understands the word "PRIORITIES" -ODELI FELIX, 08069471437
