Can a Custom C# object contain a property of the same type as itself?

Question

If I have created the following Employee object (simplified)...

 public class Employee
    {
        public Employee()
        {       
                


        

Answer 1

Yes, an object can contain references to other objects of the same class.

And secondly, I wouldn't create a new Employee in the cunstructor but inject it like this:

public class Employee
{
    public Employee(Employee manager)
    {
        this.Manager = manager;
    }

    public String StaffID { get; set; }
    public String Forename { get; set; }
    public String Surname { get; set; }

    public Employee Manager { get; set; }
}
