I met The Spousal Unit at work. I was loaned out to his group two hours a day. He took that to mean he was my boss two hours a day and liked to push off all his b.s. admin work on me since I couldn't say no without being fired. Then he decided that he liked hanging around my office to talk to me even though every time he walked in my first response was "no" and my second response was "are you sure you aren't supposed to do that yourself?" and all that was usually followed up with "Are you going to yap through my lunch hour? In case you haven't noticed, I like to read at lunch, not talk to assholes."
Not that any of this mattered; I was fired about 4 months later for being in a relationship with him. He got a promotion. Go figure.
It kind of explains our relationship being antagonistic, sarcastic and full of teasing/harassment (all in fun and it's generally a lot of fun, actually - we are kind of weird). I now refuse to do all sorts of things now that I can't be fired for it and I try to boss him around a lot. And I have an unnatural hatred of typing labels.
