    Actually there’s a woman at my company who I see about once a month. No idea what her name is or what building/team she works in. She’s one of the most attractive women I’ve ever seen. Like, I can count on my fingers how many times I’ve seen a woman that attractive in my whole life.

    I find it interesting that a majority of the top comments assume the image is referring to a female coworker. The gender neutrality of it leaves much room for interpretation. I haven’t seen the latest Lemmy demographic stats, but this doesn’t exactly paint a balanced perspective.

    last one i thought was hot was actually in a different department separated from me by an eight inch thick cinder block wall with one door in/out at least 100 feet away and no reason for her to be in my department for anything.

    Counterpoint: your coworker is attractive and they don’t need to be a goddess among trolls to be worthy of interest.

    Instructions unclear, dated attractive co-worker in 2007. She farted on our first date, loud enough to be heard over the music and loud drunks at a steakhouse.

    We’ve been married 17 years.

    If I spend 40 hours a week with someone and still I’m attracted to them then they’re attractive and probably a nice person.

    One of my coworkers is physically extremely attractive but to be honest I would quite like to have her beaten to death with a mallet. No amount of attractiveness can overcome her lazy petty vindictiveness.

      In my experience, attractive people are used to get what they want because society subconsciously favors them. I’m not generalising as there are plenty of attractive people that are good human beings. But I think attractive people tend to be narcissistic than their non attractive counterparts.

    Speak for yourself. My bosses are all 50 plus year old perverts, so they’re only hiring incredibly attractive women.

    Sometimes going into work sucks for me the way it might feel for a goblin sewer cleaner to walk out into the city.

    Counterpoint: my place of business hired a person who was a regular customer that I found distressingly attractive, like “Oh no, that hot customer is back, okay don’t be weird, give them their space.”

    Once I worked with them for a few months I found out they were a total space cadet. I didn’t suddenly find them un-attractive, but I definitely revised my estimation such that their presence was no longer a problem.

        Someone too focused on being an astronaut to pay any attention to the work that needs to be done at their normal job

          You’re not entirely wrong. Any conversation with them would inevitably drift off into the weirdest tangents, and they would happily continue their side of the conversation, even if the person to whom they were speaking had to walk away or start doing another task. They weren’t bad at the job, but they weren’t great either, and they were consistently odd, and not in a fun quirky way.

    I find the inverse true. I work at a place that has a few women I thought were very attractive. Now that I’ve worked with them for years, I’m over it
