Reflections on an Odd Life

Work Life

I sometimes marvel at what a strange workplace I have. We do a lot of things here at the magazine that are perfectly appropriate in the context of our jobs that would be totally out of line elsewhere. 

Assorted things from this past week:

a) A colleague expensed her hair cut.

b) I noticed another colleague spend an hour browsing DVF’s website for shoes.

c) A photographer had lying on his desk a book with a super risque photo on the cover.

All of these things, though, were totally within work context and completely defensible.
