Dying to Know

Trueofficeconfessions.com

Looks like somebody has a case of the Mondays — a particularly nasty strain that can be cured only with a hefty dose of TGIF (or, perhaps, a very stiff drink). 

The newest form of self-medication: True Office Confessions, a site comprising anonymous posts about or relating to how much work, a workplace, or co-worker sucks.

Its benefits are twofold: First, getting gripes off your chest is said to make you feel better. So rather than stewing over how your boss’s lack of personal hygiene affects your productivity, type it in, and let it go. Second, after reading pages upon pages of other people’s conference call faux pas (“I thought it was on mute!”), close-talking colleagues (“Back it up, big boy!”), and clothing malfunctions (“This shirt was not see-through this morning!”), making it to the weekend might seem that much easier.

It’s only four days away.
