Imagine wrapping up a call with your boss or a client and accidentally saying, “Love you!” It sounds cringe-worthy, right? That’s exactly what happened to one woman, who bravely shared her hilarious mishap online. Her mortification quickly turned to relief when the client responded with nothing but understanding and compassion. He even recalled a time he’d done the same thing! Talk about a plot twist!
Instead of brushing it off, the client cheekily reassured her that having love in her life was a great thing. His warm reply included a compliment about being proud of her for having that much love flowing so naturally.

It sparks a question: why does work sometimes remind us of family? When do those professional walls come down, and is it really all that bad to mix a little love into our daily grind?
