Colleagues having sex in the office out of hours

2 of my colleagues have been dating for a few months, I’d say they are friends of mine and we get on well.
Yesterday after work a lot of us went to the pub, the CEO was covering the tab so everyone was a bit tipsy.
Today the guy mentioned to someone else (who is dating my closest friend). That when they went back to the office to pick up their stuff before leaving they got carried away and had sex.

AIBU to think this is massively inappropriate and to report it?

If they’re friends of yours and you get on well, reporting them will soon put an end to that. Mind your own business. It may be inappropriate but it’s nothing to do with you.

I'd just be jealous that I'm old and married and office shagging isn't on the agenda for me 😁

No way I'd report it, though.

Nikitaspearlearring · 07/11/2024 18:29

Report it? Don't be silly. An inward snigger and own business minded.

TooBigForMyBoots · 07/11/2024 18:29

This is the kind of thing that happen when people watch Jilly Cooper adaptations. See also the 80's.🙄

"I’d say they are friends of mine and we get on well."

This isn't true is it, otherwise you wouldn't be thinking about reporting them, would you? (If this is even real)

PrettyPickle · 07/11/2024 18:28

It won't end well if you do and the more they do it, the more chance of being caught and that is their problem and not yours.

I'd button it!

Entertherubicon · 07/11/2024 18:27

I'd casually mention things going nissing in the office and askjng security to check cctv footage. Every office has security cameras, they were bloody stupid to have provided a free sex show for the IT guys to upload on the internet. .......

OchAyeTheN00 · 07/11/2024 18:26

Yes it’s inappropriate. No, do not report it.

mitogoshigg · 07/11/2024 18:26

It's inappropriate but hardly shocking. I'm sure many people have. 2 consenting adults and nobody around, don't report

DemonicCaveMaggot · 07/11/2024 18:26

Mozzarellaballs With one of your work colleagues? Or would you bring someone in for the occasion?

EveryOtherNameTaken · 07/11/2024 18:26

It was a bit of fun! Defo not a reportable issue.

MolkosTeenageAngst · 07/11/2024 18:26

It’s inappropriate but if no one else was there to see it and they didn’t do it on your desk or anything I don’t really understand why you would report it as it hasn’t effected you in any ways? It also may just be gossip and even if you report it to HR they may just deny it, without any evidence I can’t see much coming from it but it might damage your work relationships.

Blueblell · 07/11/2024 18:25

Not if she is your friend no!

Mozzarellaballs · 07/11/2024 18:25

Why though? It really doesn't affect you unless some juices went onto your keyboard. Are you jealous or do you fancy the guy? I'm jealous, I've always wanted to be sneaky at work like this!

DemonicCaveMaggot · 07/11/2024 18:25

I wouldn't report it. I'd ask him whose desk or chair they used though because if it was yours you may want to disinfect it.

afishcalledvanda · 07/11/2024 18:25

This is pretty common in some workplaces,
Why on earth would you 'report'?? 🙄

loulouljh · 07/11/2024 18:24

It's not right...but report it? No.

TheSmallAssassin · 07/11/2024 18:24

Who are you going to report it to? What are you going to say? Play it through in your mind, what do you think would actually happen once you'd said it?

GivingitToGod · 07/11/2024 18:24

TheYearOfSmallThings · 07/11/2024 17:54

YABU. Why would you feel the need to report that? What would it achieve?

Exactly. Let it go OP. Not nice that the guy spread the news of it

Willsnbills · 07/11/2024 18:23

Yeah two people were actually caught in my workplace 😅😂😂 surprisingly enough they still work there!

WhatDaHell · 07/11/2024 18:22

Just stay out of it

HollyIvie · 07/11/2024 18:22

I would have a quiet word with my friend about the 'gobby' bloke but I wouldn't report it. Why would you get involved!!?

SlashBeef · 07/11/2024 18:22

Report it?! It's giving telltale vibes. Get a grip.

AgathaX · 07/11/2024 18:21

I can't see why you'd need to report it.

NewGreenDuck · 07/11/2024 18:20

This happened where I used to work. A married man and a soon to be married woman. Unfortunately, they were caught in flagrante delicto by another colleague who had left the office but returned to collect something.
Very embarrassing for all concerned. I hope that doesn't happen to these two.
