Impressions from an Office

By Natasha Josefowitz
The family picture is on His desk
-Ah, a solid, responsible family man
The family picture is on Her desk
-Um, her family will come before her work
His desk is cluttered
-He's obviously a hard worker and a busy man
Her desk is cluttered
-She's obviously a disorganized scatterbrain
He is talking with his co-workers
-He must be discussing the latest deal
She is talking with her co-workers
-She must be gossiping
He's not at his desk
-He must be at a meeting
She's not at her desk
-She must be in the ladies room
He's not in the office
-He's meeting customers
She's not in the office
-She must be out shopping
He's having lunch with the boss
-He's on his way up
She's having lunch with the boss
-They must be having an affair
The boss criticized Him
-He'll improve his performance
The boss criticized Her
-She'll be very upset
He got an unfair deal
-Did he get angry?
She got an unfair deal
-Did she cry?
He's getting married
-He'll get more settled
She's getting married
-She'll get pregnant and leave
He's having a baby
-He'll need a raise
She's having a baby
-She'll cost the company money in maternity benefits
He's going on a business trip
-It's good for his career
She's going on a business trip
-What does her husband say?
He's leaving for a better job
-He knows how to recognize a good opportunity
She's leaving for a better job
-Women are not dependable
