This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Not per person, per woman
Meeting people at work is the worst way to meet people.
"Oh hey. Our major thing in common is that we're both working for the same business.
Lets hook up so that we can be constantly reminded of work when we see each other.
On top of that: if we break up (which is highly likely) it'll get awkward at the place where we gain money to pay for necessities."
No thanks.
Edit: Also the reason why Korea has a low birth rate isn't due to "not dating at work".

Counterpoint - sneaky sex at work.
That's a good thing.
Engaging in relationships at work can not benefit your future ability to care for potential offspring, only hurt that ability.
Despite your downvotes, I actually agree it's not a bad thing (especially from a global sustainability perspective) but a drop that sharp is causing huge problems in Korea
Yolo.
