Sleeping with the Boss	comment	A sub-trope of Unequal Pairing and Office Romance, this is when a person in authority specifically gets "busy" with an employee or a member of their staff. A favorite plot device in many a film, this usually takes on one of any given number of scenarios: the master of the house banging the maid, or the mistress of the house getting naughty with the pool boy or gardener, or the office manager having "business meetings" with his secretary while his wife remains unaware. Either party in the affair may be the instigator, though usually that role goes to the one who holds the greater power and authority. Usually, too, the boss or supervisor is older and more "experienced" than the employee. If either party is married or in a relationship (which is usually, but not always, the case in this kind of situation), this kind of affair comes from an unfaithful heart; unsurprisingly, in such a case, this usually results in a Love Triangle and all the problems that come with it. If the employee is female and the boss is male and married, the employee may take the role of The Mistress. Or, in some cases, the wife/husband of either participant may know of the affair, but won't say or do anything about it because they want to keep up public appearances. Since Power is Sexy, the employee is often perfectly happy with such an arrangement, and may even enjoy being ordered around and punished. However, this kind of situation also holds the risk of the employee eventually asking "Am I Just a Toy to You?", if the boss is flaunting their power over the employee just to satisfy a perpetually high libido. Or it may be a form of Sexual Extortion if the employee engages in sex with the boss under duress or blackmail (though the reverse can also be true, in that it's the employee who blackmails the boss). Sometimes, the relationship is a part of the employee's strategy of Sleeping Their Way to the Top, advancing their career (or trying to) by seducing their superior. This doesn't mean their feelings are necessarily fake, though. The boss might be in the dark about it, or might know and just not care. Sometimes, it's the boss who decides to "reward" the employee, leading to Nepotism. Sleeping Their Way to the Top is thought to be especially common in showbusiness, leading to Casting Couch situations, when someone sleeps with the producer or director to land a starring role — though this, too, might sometimes cross into Sexual Extortion territory. Whether the participants are single or are married to other people, this kind of scenario opens itself to some discrimination depending on the gender of the employee in the equation. If the employee is female and the boss is male, the woman may be seen as loose and only advancing her career by sleeping her way to the top, and she'll be branded by those who are aware of the relationship. If, however, the boss is female and the employee is male, then the man will be seen as extremely lucky; at worst, the situation may be given an indifferent shrug, or played for laughs if the boss is an Abhorrent Admirer. This can also happen in the military, which adds to the additional point that the relationship is probably flat-out illegal on top of all other considerations. See Inappropriately Close Comrades for more. Compare Pizza Boy Special Delivery, where the persons in question aren't in a permanent boss/employee relationship but still have sex in the midst of conducting an otherwise ordinary business transaction; and Teacher/Student Romance, where the relationship in question takes place between a teacher and a student (though sex may or may not be involved in this case). Also compare Bodyguard Crush, where a person's appointed security guard harbors feelings for their client or vice versa that may or may not be reciprocated; Subordinate Excuse, where the employee uses their being employed by the boss as an excuse to exercise affection for said boss (though that situation may NOT necessarily automatically result in the two parties having sex); and Hired for Their Looks, where the boss appreciates the employee's decorative qualities but doesn't go beyond ogling. Note that this trope is not the same situation as the Sex Slave, where the person with the lesser authority is in captivity and is forced to engage in sex under orders from their captors. Also note that the Office Romance speaks more generally about inter-office relationships and can be (and usually is) applied to co-workers who are on equal standing; this trope is specifically about a sexual relationship between a boss and their employee. It should also be noted that, although use or abuse of power on the boss's part does sometimes play a role in this trope, it does not happen in all cases, as some instances of this are mutually consensual. Far more egregious and likely to result in retribution from the boss's end would be Sleeping with the Boss's Wife. No, this isn't about video game Boss Battles. noreallife

He's actually an FBI agent and not her usual direct superior. Deb wants to keep their relationship secret at first but Lundy says it always gets out and that it's better to be honest right from the start. She wants to stay with him but they break up when she realizes they won't manage to make their long-distance relationship work. Lieutenant Maria LaGuerta, a boss of Homicide, and Sergeant Angel Batista, her direct subordinate, start a sexual affair in season 4. Their superior Captain Matthews wants them to either break up or have Angel transferred to another department. They decide to marry and the pro-family politics allows them to stay together and both at Homicide department. Season 6 begins with them being Amicably Divorced.

However, it is revealed in "Soulmates", that Chris, the city manager (who is everyone's boss), has a rule against employees dating their superiors. Thus Leslie is afraid to act on their sexual tension until 4 episodes later in "Road Trip". They manage to have a Secret Relationship, until the season 4 premiere where Leslie decides to run for city council, where they mutually decide to break up. Chris finds out about them and in "The Trial of Leslie Knope", Ben ends up quitting his job so that Leslie isn't fired.

Sleeping with the Boss / int_33fdae4d	comment	Mad Men: This happens a lot around Sterling Cooper. Roger Sterling has a habit of sleeping with his secretaries. He most notably has a running on-and-off affair with Joan Holloway (who, while not his secretary, exactly, is still his subordinate in the sense that he's a partner in the firm while she is an employee). Roger even divorces his first wife, Mona, to marry his secretary Jane Siegel (who is about the same age as his daughter). It doesn't last. Don Draper, Chivalrous Pervert that he is, is actually against this kind of relationship on principle (primarily for practical reasons, but he also has some ethical qualms about it). However, Don's principles go out the window in Season 4 (following his divorce from Betty), and he starts sleeping with his secretary Megan, and eventually marries her. It doesn't last, either. Peggy Olsen has a one-night stand with Pete Campbell while she is still a secretary. People also falsely assume that she was promoted to copywriter because she slept with Don; again, Don has a rule against that, which he was still following at the time she was promoted (Season 1). Megan is propositioned by her female boss when she gets an acting job on a soap opera.

Daredevil: In season 2, Karen Page briefly dates Matt Murdock before the strain of his double life as Daredevil and a number of misunderstandings (like Karen finding Elektra in Matt's bed and mistaking him for cheating on her) temporarily drive them apart.

The other secretary thinks that her boss is going to leave his wife for her; the wife informs the secretary in no uncertain terms that she's OK with her husband fooling around but she will not under any circumstances allow a divorce. It's also implied that she is the boss's second wife, and he met her when she was his secretary. When the secretary learns this, she tries to jump off a building but Sam talks her down.

There was no coercion or ulterior motive on either part and they're in a serious relationship, but it does cause some tension later during the rescue operation when they argue with each other about having to put their feelings aside for the mission. Interestingly, Casca was at one point accused of sleeping with Griffith to get her high position in their army. In actual fact, her feelings toward him ping-ponged between a hopeless crush and Hero Worship, but never went further than that.

When he first came into the District Attorney's office in the original series, Claire Kincaid pointed out that he'd slept with all three of his previous assistants (and married one of them), to which Jack replied that all the relationships were mutually consensual. Then Claire declared that nothing of the sort would happen between herself and Jack, to which he agreed... only for them to get intimate later on down the line. However, the fact that they did become intimate wasn't revealed in the show until after Claire's death. Claire had previously had an affair with a judge that she clerked for. As it turned out he had a criminally bad way of dealing with breakups.

Around twenty years ago, Delia began working as assistant of Professor Oak's post-university, after also having been his student as a teenager. Oak was attracted to her but kept his distance until Delia caught her husband Will cheating. After Will ran off with his ex, Delia couldn't afford her apartment so Oak offered the room above his lab to her. They became quickly friends, but one day they gave in to their mutual attraction. Delia ended up pregnant with Ash afterwards. They've been in a Secret Relationship behind Ash's back his entire life, until at seventeen when Ash discovers that Professor Oak is his dad. It was secret more because Delia was technically Oak's student rather than because of the "boss" element of their relationship. Delia wanted to avoid scandal.

Unfortunately, since God had specifically told Abram that he would have children with Sarai, this plan backfires horribly — Hagar starts forgetting her place with Sarai and is eventually thrown out with her son, Ishmael, though God helps them out later. (Ishmael is said to have become the ancestor of the Arabian people) There's also a subversion with Joseph, at the time a slave in Egypt under the employment of Potiphar. His master's wife wanted to screw him physically, but he rebuffed her advances on the grounds that she was already married and that giving in to her would be a sin against God. So she chose to screw him metaphorically.

Since she tried to ruin Miyu's wedding and snatch her husband, he decided to tell everyone about her secret, effectively making the older sister a pariah. "My family made fun of my disability, until I became a CEOâ€¦" [sic]: Sakiho had an affair with her boss and his wife's PI caught her red-handed and threatened to sue her. Therefore, she and her mom went to her grandparents' house to ask her now-CEO sister Misaki for money. However, she refused to give them money for all the abuse they put her through—the "made fun of my disability" part of the title refers to this, and this is why she lives with her grandparents. "Exposing a slacking worker during lockdown. What the camera showed was shocking!": Yahata turned out to have slept with one of the company's higher-ups, which was the reason Masayoshi's aunt sent him to take care of her in the first place. When he finally exposed her affair in an online meeting, they reported her to another superior, which resulted in the lovebirds getting fired on top of the former superior's wife suing Yahata for alimony.

Meredith Johnson, the ex and new boss of Tom Sanders, tries to restart their relationship, but Tom doesn't want to go through with it due to him being married now.

When his lawyer investigates her, she finds that several of her male subordinates have abruptly and inexplicably quit, heavily implying that Tom is neither the first nor only employee that she's made unwanted advances to.

It's much less about any particular romance between them and much more about getting revenge on her increasingly criminal husband, though, and the power equation changes when it becomes clear that Ted is something of an irresponsible twit, driving her back to Walt. Subverted in season 3. Walter tries to put the moves on his own boss Principal Carmen in retribution for Skyler's affair. However, while Ted and Skyler already had Unresolved Sexual Tension between them, there wasn't even a hint that either Walter or Carmen were attracted to one another, so his out of the blue attempt to seduce her just comes across as weird and pathetic. Rather than turning the cheating into a mutual affair, he is fired from his job as a teacher.
