In case you haven't been keeping up, Nerve's been running a series called "Sex Advice From...," in which they plunder the below-the-belt knowledge of workers in various jobs. (It's sort of like Studs Terkel's Working with two backs.)

This week's installment is "Sex Advice From... Editorial Assistants." Yes, the unsung copier jockeys and Fed Ex label filler-outers are finally having their say:

I mean, they're literate and possess good grammar skills, which is a turn-on, but they're all crazy. You'll spend your whole day holding their hand. Like I said to my shrink, do you want to go home to someone who's bipolar and goes off their medication all the time when that's what you get at the office? No!

We bet your shrink said the same thing exactly.
