It's a wonder sex in the stationery cupboard ever became such a cliché.
Everywhere I've ever worked, the spare notepads and Biros have been kept in a small filing cabinet — not really roomy enough for any clandestine shenanigans.
Sex over the desk may have become the TV storyline staple (it happens all the time in Mad Men), but is anyone in the real world doing it at work? I asked after-work drinkers in Victoria whether they had ever got it on in the office.
Yes
Amy, 28, Chef
My office is actually a kitchen and I have had sex in there. The appeal was getting caught. I cleaned the surfaces down afterwards.
Yes
Paul, 40, Consultant
A long time ago. We were at the pub and went back to lock up and things got a bit passionate in a meeting room. It carried on for a few weeks after that: we went into all the meeting rooms and sullied all the tables.
No
Niels, 23, Account Manager
There are loads of women in my office but I've only been there four months, so give it time.
No
Skip, 21, Chef
Not in the office, but I have had sex in a very public place, down a backstreet in Covent Garden. It was pure lust. I couldn't wait and neither could she.
Yes
Emily, 27, Teacher
I was working for a travel company. I was dating someone in secret and we went to an office block around the corner and had sex in a huge glass building overlooking the London Eye.
No
Jean-Baptiste, 27, Advertising Creative
I've tried pretty hard. It's strange — you put all the hours in and try your best, but nothing seems to come of it.
