What should i do? i made the worlds most dumbest mistake in dating someone i worked with. We both had casual positions in a supermarket. He left his job as he moved with his family and it was just to far to travel for casual work as he doesn't have a drivers licence. We still remained going out however. i'd been working at this job for 3 years prior to him starting and he was there for only 6 months. he ended up treating me really bad cheating on me with other girls and just doing really shady things, just very young and immature. So i ended our relationship. So anyway now cause he can't find another job and he has finally realised money doesn't grow on trees he wants his old job back, and i really don't want him to work with me again....... I need help blues

Tell him you don't him anywhere near where you are working and you want nothing to do with him. If he gets a job working with you, there will probably be a lot of tension that would be bad for both.

You need to be professional and mature. Just do your job..ignore him if you can..if not..be courteous and NEVER bring up things about the break up at the workplace. This is what happens when you date co-workers..you now have to be the bigger person.

If you can't handle it then you will be the one who will have to leave..sorry to be blunt but that's just the way it is. You can't stop someone from working with you.

You are right on with this answer. You, also, are a Christian. Pray to the LORD for strength. It is in Eph 6:10-20. It has worked for me and it will for you, too!

Right, I take it you are not responsible for the recruiting of any kind of personnel in this supermarket. Then what gives you any right to say you dont want him working there. Absolutely ridiculous. Just because of your personal feelings, which one should never drag cross the line into the realms of work.

You need money to live in this world of ours so if he wants to return to the same work place deal with it, professionally. Do you know how hard jobs are to come by in this world right now for many people?

Put the shoe on the other foot and see how you would like it.

My advice is. See the manager and explain everything,and why this person been around, will have an impact concentrating on your job.
