The 9 to 5 Marriage

I read something in Forbes Magazine recently about the “work spouse”—the colleague who you confide in (he understands all the “b.s” of the office, after all), gripe about co-workers with, and even share fries with at the cafeteria. With the amount of time we all spend at work (much more than 9 to 5 these days), a “couple” gets support and friendship from each other without the hassle of a romantic entanglement. In fact, sometimes the fact that you’re both married makes it “safer” to be close. Though—of course if one person is married and the other isn’t—it could get sticky. I, personally don’t have an office spouse, but honestly? I wouldn’t mind one…especially if he did dishes! Or at least changed the ink cartridge in the printer!
