If Only Liz Taylor Had Been a Temp

I just read an article on CNN.com, entitled "Seven signs you have a work spouse." You can read it for yourself here, but let me break it down for you ala mid 90s Mase before he got all holy and what not:

-A "work spouse" is defined as a co-worker of the opposite sex (but not the same sex. Thanks, Prop 8!) with whom you have a close platonic relationship that resembles a marriage.

-Signs of this co-worker marriage can include finishing each other's sentences, having the ability to be totally honest and upfront with each other, without any risk of fighting or hurting the other's feelings, and being able to depend on your work spouse for supplies, snacks, aspirin, condoms, whatever you may need. Well, maybe not the last part. Married people don't use condoms. Well, OK, they do, but not with each other.

-A "work spouse" can be a great source of support and comfort in the workplace, but one must be careful not to cross certain boundaries with his work spouse, or let the relationship threaten or harm a real-life marriage or romantic relationship.

Here's my question ... has anyone from CNN.com ever been married? And like, lived with the person, not just for a green card or something? Because the list seems a bit ... off. It reads like an actual healthy, enjoyable romantic relationship, not a marriage. Here's some key points they left out:

Signs You Have a Work Spouse:

-You want to sleep with all their clients, even the ugly ones.
-You do not want to sleep with them.
-You desperately want to move out of your shared cubicle, but you've already decorated it, and all your stuff is in order there, and where would you go and, ugh, what about the plants?
-When you were just a temp, you thought all you ever wanted was to be on staff. Now you stay late, until your work spouse has gone home, and hide Craig's lists postings for maternity-leave office assistants behind desktop windows. Of porn.
-Their face is the first thing you see in the morning, and the last thing you see at night. Because you work in a sweatshop and sleep on top of a button fastening machine.

Just kidding about that last one. I sure hope they don't have machines in sweatshops. Kids these days need to learn how to do things for themselves, not just rely on technology, you know?
