@bikepedantic I can't think of a more powerful disincentive to go into the office than the presence of a massage parlor
Would I like a massage? Sure!
Would I like it at work, alongside my colleagues? OMG no. Never.
I think I have permanently traumatized myself with the image that just popped in my head.
@DrTCombs @bikepedantic Oddly it's actually OK? I've worked at two places that did this and the biggest issue, by far, was actually finding an open appointment as the masseuses were inevitably booked for weeks in advance. (I say this as someone who's got almost 16 hours of massage credits sitting unused)
The massage staff is also inevitably *far* better about issues of privacy, personal space, and boundaries than a lot of management. They just don't put up with the creepy stuff people imagine.
@wordshaper @bikepedantic see, all I can think of is what's going on in the minds of (some of) my colleagues when they see me walking about of the work massage place.
when I was pregnant, I asked for a pat-down from TSA instead of having to go through body scanner, and the comments I got from onlookers afterward about the supposed thoroughness of my search still grosses me out.
@wordshaper @bikepedantic I'd be down if the LMBT made house calls. But I guess that defeats the purpose.
