Okay so me and my virgo are doing really well, we have been getting along so well and have both been putting in effort and both agreed to begin trying to be more accepting of eachother.
NOW.. here's a tricky question.. he works in construction and i work an office job, there is a chance he might be able to get me a job there aswell but i would be his assistant, it's extrememly good money, and if i get a job there i will be soo insanely lucky, because it's rare. he would be my boss pretty much, and i am a good worker and i would defiently put in 100% plus more at all times!
But if it does happen, i'm worried, could this end up being bad? he's a virgo so no doubt he will be super critical, i think our charts also indicate that we get along best when we are productive though, so it could even be a good thing?
thoughts?

Do NOT do it. If you two have to work together, your relationship will go bye bye. I'm married to a Scorp, and as much as I love her, I think I would kill her if we worked together.
Virgos are 'just the facts' type of people. Scorps are very detail oriented, and have to know every insignificant fact on top of 'the facts.'
You two will drive each other crazy.

And, you're right. He will be super critical, but as the saying says...The devil is in the details. Virgos will tolerate insignificant details to a point, but it would go right out the window if you worked together.
Example: My wife and I are about to buy a used car. I told her the specifics about the loan. She was asking me about little things like about the 3 small scratches on the car. Me? I don't care about the scratches. We got into a little scuffle about that.
Imagine that in a work place where he is your boss.
Like I said...Don't do it!

I have to go with no, unfortunately.
Not going to be easy if you do...

If its more important than the relationship itself (which it probably is since youre 22) then I'd take it. But I dont recommend anyone work with their significant other, thats a whole lot of hours to have to see someone everyday that youre fucking. then think about the coworkers that inevitably flirt and so on.

Look, sometimes it can work... I gotta be honest.
This is not a meany thing but I feel meany when I say it.
I have kind of followed your threads in the past and I gotta say I just don't think you and the Virg are up there just yet...
It's just a big step in my opinion, when only in a matter of months I've seen you go through every high and low possible in a relationship and then a "relationship"
I'm sorry, sweety, I just don't see it working long term...
Work is a whole different kettle of fish, and ooooovirgos really take that shit seriously.
My besty is a Scorpio, we been mates for twenty years. And even romantic involvement aside and the fact that we got each others back, I could NEVER work with her...
And she's just a mate!
Scorpions are intense, I don't need that sort of thing at work... I didn't reread but did he suggest it??
And why did he suggest it if he did? Did he say??

Marriage partners work together all the time. They run businesses together and successfully. So I don't buy that at all, they aren't living together...however, given their track record I would be cautious of doing it. Given the money is great, and these days that is important as the cost of living is going up everyday and making it harder to just live let alone buy a home or travel and enjoy some of the fruits of our labour.
My thoughts on it Scorp is, what if your relationship takes another dive? Can you still handle working with him as your boss? What if he hooked up with that girl that he texted after you split or anyone else...can you live with that? Could he live with being your boss if you should find someone else?? That is what I would focus on should you decide to do it!

GENERALLY speaking I'd discourage it but it really depends on who you two are as individuals.
The person you love dearly might not be the same person in the work place.

If you have to ask this question then you already know its not a good idea. But since we all know how the relationship will play out...I say go for it.
Just remember in that 6 months you could be fired by him and black balled from the industry too...so which is more important...the relationship or the money?
Your relationship will be fine if you guys are mature enough and it seems you want to be. You'll get to know each other more, see if you tolerate being side by side for long periods of time and most importantly, you'll be earning A LOT OF FUCKING MONEY!!!!

@mellymoo I find it a bit sad how you seam to have so much time on your hands to go look through all my old threads.
He isn't "offering" me a job, it's not up to him if I work there or not it was simply a suggestion by him and he said he will talk to his boss about it in the upcoming weeks to see if they will hire me, he suggested it cause like I said its extremely rare to get that job with that kind of money and
It would only be for a total of 6 months or so.
My government job pays well but it's not permanent, and obviously it doesn't pay as good as construction. Circumstances change, stop going through my old threads in hope to find something "suspicious" seriously get a life
