Is it okay for representatives to share an intoxicated kiss at a work occasion? What if it’s not consensual? What if among them is wed? How about lawfully separated, does that modification anything? Is dating coworkers unpleasant? What about the one in charge?
Offering the OC, the spinoff of the hugely popular Netflix series Offering Sundown, dropped its 2nd season Friday. Both depict the California-based shop high-end brokerage The Oppenheim Group, led by Jason Oppenheim
The concerns above show a few of the hard individual limit and track record concerns the cast has actually been coming to grips with after a newbie representative attempted to kiss her then-married associate in Season 1. When Tyler Stanaland, gets separated in Season 2, more coworkers flirt (and more) with Stanaland.
Which pleads the concern at the center of all the drama, the concern that fractures relationships and breaks alliances: Where’s the line?
” Work environment love– and couples interacting in realty particularly– are absolutely nothing brand-new, naturally. However where should brokerages fix a limit?

At the very same time the season dropped, the market was reeling from unwanted sexual advances accusation discoveries at the National Association of Realtors Ripples of unwanted sexual advances matches are still working their method through Keller Williams and eXp too.

However it is to state that, as evidenced by the suits and significant headings above, the very same limit discussion occurring on a nationwide level is likewise appearing in workplaces all over the nation And in Offering the OC‘s case, those workplace discussions are right there for all to binge on Netflix.
And binge-worthy it is.
Why? Despite the fact that individual relationships remain in tatters, absolutely nothing obstructs of the offer, the cast states.
” We might have various relationships occurring and things severing, however our cash and our tasks are the most crucial thing, which is why we’re all at The Oppenheim Group. So that constantly precedes. You might not even be on speaking terms with somebody, however when it’s time to work together on a listing, here we are,” Brandi Marshall informed Inman.
