don’t shit where you eat

do not cause trouble with someone who has something held over your head. (i.e. you cheated on bae with bae’s good friend)
d-ckson hooked up with sarah in front of a room of people and mel, yet is still mean to mel who can text leigha and let her know the dealio in .5 seconds. don’t sh-t where you eat, d-ckson.
this phrase means “do not have romantic relationships with any co-workers.” basically, you don’t want to make yourself uncomfortable (by potentially having a romantic relationship get ugly, or “sh-tting”) at the place where you work (“where you eat”).
dude #1: “d-mn a really hot blonde just started working at my company. i’m gonna ask her out”
dude #2: “dude, haven’t you heard the saying: don’t sh-t where you eat?”
this expression refers to doing anything that would jeopardize something important or essential to you. a common example of sh-tting where one eats is engaging in a romantic affair with a co-worker, but lying to your roommate or stealing from friends also fits this expression.
local bike shop mechanic #1: “can you believe that guy? i’ve hooked him up dozens of times, but after the tantrum he just threw, i’ll never take a dime off a part for him again.”

lbs mechanic #2: “seriously. hasn’t he ever heard? don’t sh-t where you eat.”
