With taking a break here with playing X-Change Life (so I be energized when the update comes out), I thought I share some more experiences of mine with office drama. In one company I worked for, Valentine Day was a nightmare when you had to use the lobby. The place was full of flowers as the deliveries came in with each floor having a table with one special table set aside only for roses (then later, building staff would take them up to the employees). Now you would think "That's so romantic", but they always stuck the table next to the lobby doors. Not near, more like three steps and one would be in the parking lot. Luckily there isn't a black-market for stolen roses, but the little devil on my shoulder always whispered I should steal one of the nicer arrangement for a co-worker I was interested in.
The other weird thing about that company was, no matter what the subject was when gossiping about someone in the building. Be it a divorce or death in the family, that person's pay grade would be included as if that was needed so everyone could rank or measure themselves to whomever they were talking about. Even asking about someone one was interested in and was considering asking on a date. Maybe for other people that isn't weird, but I always thought it was (because it would always happen within maybe two to three mins talking about someone).
