Office Stats, Office Love

by Dan Gould

It’s Friday post time, and the HR people are not going to be happy about this one. The Sun just published results of a survey of 1200 office workers. It seems people are getting a little naughty at the office, which makes sense, I suppose, because of the ungodly amounts of time the average person spends there. It’s reported that 600 hours of worker’s lives will be spent checking out attractive collegues, and two out of five employees end up in bed with their workmate.

Other interesting statistics from the report:

The average worker remains at their desk for 60,000 hours as they toil, drink 32,000 cups of tea or coffee and make 110,000 phone calls, according to the research for a recruitment firm. They will also write 50,000 lists of things to do over the years, receive more than 320,000 emails and have 13 job interviews,

The Sun: “Workmates ogle for 600 hours”
