[Ghoulish Delight]

No, I meant, "Women in the workplace, what'll they think of next?!"

There are about 22 people in my department. Exactly 2 are women, both are married. We have 3 buildings. In the building I'm in, which houses our engineering operations, there about 200 people, I'd estimate. I can probably sit here and name all of the women off the top of my head. It can't be more than 20-30.

The ratio is much different in the other two buildings (HR, sales, marketing, accounting, etc). But if I'm in those buildings I'm doing my job wrong.

So honestly, who's dating whom and who's available etc. is not a particularly hot topic of discussion among the men in this building. Perhaps there is talk amongst the women, but I'm oblivious to it if there is.

Meanwhile, just yesterday I was looking at a floor plan of our building and noticed one of the rooms labeled "Womens Lounge." It was nowhere near a restroom. I went and looked at it. It's a room that's always empty, large enough to be a conference room for maybe 5 people. It has one small desk and one crappy desk chair shoved into the back corner. I'm not sure I want a mens lounge.
