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?

You know what is unreasonable? A man with a leaky mouth. No-one needed to know 😔.

Does it really matter? As long as they clean up their mess and don't do it infront of anyone I wouldn't care. How does it impact your life OP? It doesn't, so leave it.

@Eyesopenwideawake I couldn't agree more Grin

We never told anyone though!

I work in a library , it has a pillar in it with a desk nearby .
It has footprints on like someone has used it as a brace towards the desk . This is in a staff only area . I can only imagine .

I wouldn't report it. There is no proof this happened. However, I would tell the woman that her boyfriend is spreading it about that they had sex in the office.

GoldenLegend · 07/11/2024 18:17

Anywhere I've ever worked this has been Gross Professional Misconduct and you'd get dismissed.

However the wrong person (senior management or HR) has to catch them at it. I doubt someone else telling tales would have much influence and in any case, who would want to be That Person?

Eyesopenwideawake · 07/11/2024 18:17

Ah, shagging in the office. Happy memories.... 😋

sweetpickle2 · 07/11/2024 18:17

Get a life OP.

Isn’t that half the fun of an office affair? Don’t worry, I’m sure the cleaners come in first thing.

LookItsMeAgain · 07/11/2024 18:16

All I’d do is say to the person who shared this nugget that you hope they did that before the cleaners did their rounds as you wouldn’t want to discover anything unexpected on a desk or elsewhere.

Just stop this Karen shit.

Didshejustsaythatoutloud · 07/11/2024 18:13

If there was "fluids" or suspicious stains on YOUR desk/chair then defo report 😂😅

Waitingforfriday75 · 07/11/2024 18:12

YABU. Good for them! Not inappropriate at all.

Pottedpalm · 07/11/2024 18:11

Surely they would just deny it? Do you have proof?

Unicorntearsofgin · 07/11/2024 18:11

Why would you want to report it? Its a stupid thing to do but trying to get them in trouble is so vindictive.

Coconutter24 · 07/11/2024 18:10

It’s inappropriate but it’s non of your business and hasn’t caused any issues to the business so stay out of it. What sort of friend would want to report a couple of friends like that?

Sia8899 · 07/11/2024 18:10

I wouldn’t report but it’s inappropriate and potentially unhygienic depending on where they did it. Although I’d probably be more worried about the awkwardness when they break up

OliviaRodrighost · 07/11/2024 18:09

Oh my God, I’d be worried that sweaty ballsacks and heaven knows what else had been all over the desks 🤢

But I wouldn’t report gossip. Just bring some anti-bacterial wipes in 😂

Itisjustmyopinion · 07/11/2024 18:07

Why would you report it? It’s not as if they were doing it when other people were around or when they were supposed to be working

You are very naive OP if you think things like this don’t go on

Oh and give it a month and we will be right in the middle of office Christmas shenanigans

fanaticalfairy · 07/11/2024 18:06

Unless you walked in on them during working hours, you have no evidence apart from "he said this when he was drunk" ... You don't even know if it's true.

Please don't use that horrible ageist, misogynistic term. Be better than that.

Jazzabel · 07/11/2024 18:04

No! Don’t be a snitch!

WickedlyCharmed · 07/11/2024 18:02

I would let her know that her boyfriend is bragging about shagging her in the office.

It's all fun and games until it has a detrimental affect on one of their careers, and if that does happen I'll guarantee it'll be hers and not his.

JollyPinkFox · 07/11/2024 18:02

Don't think i'd report it but I would tell the biggest workplace gossips so the news travelled up, that's gross
