Only co-worker I ever got horizontal with was my wife, when we shared a job. Also the only co-worker I ever got pregnant.
His Parisian experience was probably more reflective of that office than of French society in general - or am I terribly mistaken, or somewhere in between?
Wait, we’re not talking about a sex party with the cast of The Office?
It’s weird now reflecting upon my office environment 20 years ago at an English-language weekly in Budapest. It was all so incestuous. I was dating the receptionist; the managing editor (eventually ed-in-chief) was dating an ad sales woman; a couple of the reporters were dating ad sales people, too. (Oddly, I can’t remember any reporter-reporter pairings.) It’s almost surprising that none of the parties we’ve had didn’t turn into full sex orgies. We did almost have an office-wide strip poker session at my place, but I put the kibbosh to that. (In retrospect, was that really a bad idea? Should’ve done it at least for the story, right? I sometimes regret being Buzz Killington there.) Like I said, above, oh to be in my 20s again.
…counts number of negatives mod 2…
Oh my!
That does not compute…
Things NOT to discuss at work, or indulge in at the office, if you know what’s good for you:
a. sex
b. politics
c. religion
d. Uh…sports (kinda like religion to some)
Works for me.
