Is he attractive?

[tjwmason]

I've got an additional office-mate for the afternoon, and I can't quite decide whether he is very good-looking or rather ugly.

He has started to mumble to himself whilst working - which is distinctly unattractive; and the picture which he has put onto the company phone-book is ghastly (in that his tie is closer to his feet than his neck - either wear one or don't going half way looks silly). He is also a tecchie.

Oh the vicissitudes of the modern office environment, and of my wandering mind therein.

1. If you have to talk yourself into being attracted to someone...

...you probably really aren't. One vote for "Not Attractive" (to you, anyway).

2. To be entirely honest

I think that it's more an attempt to avoid work. I did a scary amount of actual work this morning, and so desperately need to slack off this afternoon (or I might get a reputation for good work).

Slight change now, he said 'formulas' rather than formulae which puts him (given everything else) firmly into the unattractive box - for now at least.
