I kinda suggested to the higher ups here that if they ever needed any part-time help in the office that Mrs. PH could come in and do it.
What have I gotten myself into? 
side note :: I met Mrs. PH at a different job and we worked there together for almost 2 years. I worked 1st shift and she worked 2nd, so that's not really like we worked together.

LC and I actually met at work. We started the same day and were in the same training class. Once that six-month period ended, we went to different components in the building, and never worked together thereafter.

No freaking way I could work with my wife.
I hear all her stories and complaints about every person she has worked with in every job she has ever had.

Keith and I have worked at the same place for 9 years, married 6 of those.  We don't exactly work side by side and our hours vary by a few hours too. To get some extra "space" we quit taking breaks together except lunch. Its kinda nice to be able to lunch together every day, and able to get a hold of the other in emergencies, snow day's, whatever.
Works for us.

I wouldn't have a problem with it, except that she has a better work ethic than I do.
She'd make me look bad.

I won't work with my husband. We are too much alike (both Sagittarians). No way.
I worked with my ex-husband once. He said I was bossy. I said he was lazy.
