Okay the last entry about work this week. When I started UMG it was decent. I liked the work but I had no one to talk too. Jeff and Carlynn have now joined UMG so the 3 of us each lunch together and the work topics have started flowing again.
What is a work topic? Basically just a question that we all have to answer. Here is the topic we have been mulling over the past few days:
Scenario:
You have a g/f
Your female friend has a b/f
Your g/f was not friends with your female friend before you met.
The female friends b/f is not part of your circle of friends.
Your female friend is attractive
You win round trip tickets to Europe for 2 months but your g/f can't go and so your female friend takes her spot. This is your first trip and your friend's first trip to Europe.
You get along great during your 2 month trip. Since you are on a tight budget because you don't earn a lot of money you share a hotel room and a bed.
Here is the question: Do you hook up with your female friend at any point during the trip? If no, then if she makes the first move do you reciprocate?
----
Naturally my answer was DEFINATELY!! To both the hook up and if she makes the first move. 2 months, touring new cities, drinking every night, sharing a room and a bed. You would totally have to hook up.
Now, I didn't say I would dump my g/f. I just said I would hook up with my friend on the vacation.

Back to the amusing topics again! :)
I agree, given the scenario..."you would totally have to hookup"...the fact that you agreed to take the trip together, share a room and bed...seemingly you were already working in that direction..now zone out any moral qualms if you still have any left. 'Now free your mind and rest will follow' !! lol....
Oh btw...the g/f that you still think that "you could dump"...I dont really think that she would be around anyways once you take a 'two month, tight budgeted trip to Europe with an attractive friend who she has no clue about' ...
I thought this situation is already a bit lopsided..so Predictive Analysis is easy! Even for a moderately conservative Indian... :P
Say my Hi to Jeff/Carlynn...I never knew Carlynn had joined UMG too!
sunil-
you would this is lopsided and predictive analysis would be a no brainer but jeff and carlynn both said NO to the hookup.
carlynn joined UMG about one month ago. =)
where do you come up with this stuff???
Ok, miles...so let's say AYA was the girlfriend in this scenario. Does that change your answer???
hmmmm.... If you asked me this 10 years ago, I would say 'no' you shouldn't hook up that's just wrong, but now (less idealistic), I would say 'hook up'.
I'm not saying it's right, but I could put money that put most folks in that situation, it will happen. My thought is that by deciding to take the attractive friend for 2 months, you already made your decision at that point.
jen-
i come up with stuff because i am creative! =) naw, just stuff that comes up in conversation and then we expand on it.
sure, i can imagine aya as the g/f, but if that is the case who is my pretty friend? jessica alba? if so, then YEAH! not only will i hook up but i will try to make HER my g/f!
sao-
i like it! you can eat with us anytime!
let's say the girl looked like claire danes.
Jen..we all know Aya seizes to be Miles g/f, the moment he agrees to take the 'other g/f' ... lol!! Wise thing for any levelheaded jealous person to do!
On an annoying scale that should be 'One small step for man(Miles), one giant step for mankind (Aya)!!'
Although, it would be interesting to read as to what Aya has to say!
Miles, ask those Prudes :P, as to what reason do they have to say 'No Hookup' while all along they have been tagging along nicely! Jeff must be playing mr. nice guy coz of the recent wedding!
man..this is so cool..that u are back with old skool lunchtime humor! hehe....
jen-
see the problem is i said someone (you the traveller) finds attractive. while claire danes is decent she isn't so attractive to me. not that i would kick her outta my bed but i can say for certain that i would hook up with her.
jessica alba...YES.
jessica biel...YES.
giselle bunchen...YES.
sunil-
you wanna hear the funny part about this whole scenario. this happened to jeff. this is jeff's story...except he didn't hook up with the girl! i was like no way!
i felt maybe my morals were all messed up so I called Oscar to confirm...but he said he would totally hook up.
as for aya's side...she can't say anything. this story is kinda like her story too...except her b/f went away and then aya hooked up with ME!! TRUE STORY!!
ahhaahhahahahahaha!! i am the GREATEST!!!
yeah. we don't know WHAT aya was thinking when she did that!! It took us years to finally stop questioning her tastes...
So Oscar is your moral litmus??? Did you ask Ron what he would do (assuming Laura was his g/f in this scenario)?
that's exactly why i picked Claire Danes. It can't be someone I *KNOW* you'd hook up with because that would be too easy (and obvious).
huh...man...too much info!!
I had rather maintain the whole topic to a hypothetical situation...then have names behind images!! Names to be only discussed during happy hours! lol...
