Virtual Work Spouse Wanted

[MenaceDennis]

So...

I got dumped.

Yep, my work "wife" recently left me for another job and, I presume, a new work husband. This puts me in a bind.

With so many of the quality hours of a day spent at work, I truly miss having someone there who has an intuitive understanding of the pressures, personalities, interactions, and underlying narratives of the workplace society. Plus, she added comfort to an otherwise alienating corporate environment.

Being the 21st century, I thought I’d expand my horizons. I'm going to embrace everything digital, and start my search for a new and virtual work spouse.

Here are the benefits of being a virtual work spouse:

-There will be inside jokes that only we share and understand...virtually of course.

-We can be bluntly honest each other about appearance, hygiene or hair...even though you can't really see my nose hairs or me your upper lip (image search is a wonderful thing).

-We can commiserate about our real spouses back at home and share war or victory stories (like getting the evil HR Spinstress (TM) off our backs).

- When something eventful happens at the orfice, we’ll seek each other out for a de-briefing.

-At our virtual breakfast, lunch and coffee breaks, we’ll know what to order each other and how.

-We’ll know almost as much about each other’s personal life as our best friend or real-life spouse does.

Care to join me?

On to something...

I think you’re really on to something here. Not to hijack....but I think having a virtual work wife sounds like a great idea.

Agree, that this has been my life for servers years without defining it this way! More Virtual wife’s please step forward! I prefer using KIK and my KIK is kinkietwist should you fill your position and others work wives are interested!

I thought that I was on to something, but virtual work wives haven't come out of the woodwork.

Unfortunately for me, virtual will never be able to replace real in any endeavor. Nice to get a PM or email from somebody knowing she is thinking of you but for me it can never replace being able to really see the woman sitting near me, catching the aroma of her perfume or shampoo if she leans in to look at something. Maybe even the inadvertent touch when sitting close together working on something or seeing her smile at you when you first walk into the office. And how can virtual ever replace the sight of her swaying hips as she walks across the room or taking a quick glance to let your eyes roam over her curves.
