100% sure my coworker has invented a dog so he can take multiple long breaks daily under the guise of dog walks. never mentioned the dog until 2 weeks ago, now he’s “brb”ing 3 walks a day. boss asked to see a pic of the dog and he said “sorry it’s sleeping”. I encourage this.
he never said “hey I got a dog” or anything, it was just Monday and he said “gotta walk the dog, brb” like the dog was a well established detail of his lore.

the last part is the confirmation because sleep is the best time to take pet pics
that said respect the hustle of finding the 2024 remote-work version of smoking

I got "walk breaks" at one job I worked because I pointed out that others got smoking breaks and I also wanted to stand outside for a few minutes.

I do have a dog but anytime I leave the house while WFH and someone pings me, I say “oh I’m walking the dog be back in 20” meanwhile I’m swimming laps or at the grocery store
