she can't be that ugly, can she?
+1 If she is a smoke show then the MD will try to smash but if she is ugly then he will get roasted for dating a jar jar binks looking chick.
SB'd for jar jar binks
Hey fuck off
gang bangs boost team morale
If they’re not your ekismo brother, they’re not your real homies
if i went to bed with your mother, would that make us eskimo bros? serious question
You can't meet her in the lobby?
This, but if she’s hot, tell a fellow analyst you are “walking out to lunch” for verification. That is how you play the game. Left overs at your desk = no bueno.
I would generally have her come to the lobby. Irrelevant of who the person is, I guess it isn't cool to have external people come directly to your desk. Mainly for privacy reasons. That's why you don't have your food delivery guy drop things off at your desk.
yeah this is weird. meet in lobby.
Can't believe people are answering this seriously lmao - clearly a troll.
Sorry if I seem like a troll, just a student asking stupid questions due to lack of experience. I didn't even think of the lobby- my internship doesn't have one, so visitors/food just come right to my desk because our office is so small. Now I feel troll-ish for not thinking.
What kind of office doesn't have a lobby?
r/nothingeverhappens
Foodin Lobby!!!!!
I'm guessing your girlfriend is attractive if you're trying to let her in the office and not meet in the lobby it must be to flex on your colleagues. Nice
is it your weekday gf or weekend gf?
Are you trying to impress her with your fancy office and deal toys???
extra points if I act surprised and look important when she walks in
I actually know a guy (who works on the buyside) who once threw his bday party at his office to impress chicks on a Friday night at 9pm....... I went to the party but the funny thing was, the building turned off the AC after hours on Friday so everyone was sweating his/her ass off lmfao
Yeah, just a recommendation as such, don't let other people see your girlfriend. You should meet her in the lobby and don't let other people see her. Now, this might sound extensive but people tend to judge others with other people they associate with. Don't ever bring her up to the office.
Umm...shouldn’t your SO be someone you are proud to show off? That’s what I always strived for and ended up with. My goal was to have colleagues ask how did you end up with her? She’s better than you. And, that happens.
I just prefer people not meet her in the work environment, rather at a social event. It is just a different tone and vibe.
if you're asking, then you're worried, and should meet downstairs. Simple enough.
Please, this is truly not in your best interest or judgement. Meet her for lunch outside the bldg, or invite her along to drinks with office colleagues when appropriate and introduce her.
If she's hot, you're damned, because then everyone (except for guys like @Lloyd BIankfein", who like taking it in the ass), will want to hit it. If she's ugly, your damned as well, because then everyone will wonder why you can't get a decent looking girlfriend. So my advice would be don't do it.
By merely asking this question I can safely say you will be laughed at.
If you are embarrassed of your girlfriend you're doing it wrong.
Sounds like we have a sentimental and idealistic one here boys
its true if you're embarrassed of having your girlfriend bring you lunch at work, you are a lil bitch lol
7 or below....its a really bad idea
I make my GF meet me in the lobby.
She's an NYC Model, and very attractive. I actually don't want my colleagues to see her, because I don't want them to think that I was too busy chasing girls in college / am a douche for having a super hot girlfriend (you'll be surprised how many people think like that).
Play it safe, meet her in the lobby or at a cafe / restaurant close to the office. They can meet her at a Christmas party or another special occasion.
casual flex
bro you'd be promoted to VP instantly if you came in with a fuckin NYC model....
Hahaha. My MD met her once when I was showing her around the office on a Saturday evening (did NOT think he would be there) and he was surprisingly cool to both of us. Even showed her around the office and recommended a couple of places to eat around here.
Weird flex, but ok
Highest odds are that she is a hand model or some model that doesn't include the face
Kinda shook that it's even this big a deal.
I thought the same thing ... why date a girl if you are too scared to have her bring lunch to you... weird
Lobbyyyyyyyyy
This dude came to WSO for advice, bro hahaha
