Plants in the office


Generally a standard office (an open space office) doesn't have a friendly environment: everything in gray color; tiny space for the worker; no so much privacy; neon light from morning to evening, and every season. Did you focus this kind of place in your mind? That's my office.
Generally a standard female worker try to have a nicer desk covering it by: plants (or cut flower); pictures (relatives are the favorite, but any kind of colorful stuff works); bright stationary/object; a cup for coffee.
I've all of them. And I'm particularly proud of my plant, that survives more or less a year.

Exactly, my plant does not live: it survives.
For sure the environment it's not the ideal one, because some of my desk neighbor think that -like they do- my little plant drink enormous quantity of coffee.
So, early in the morning, they trash the left offer of their "day before coffee" inside the vase; giving a diluted and cold coffee to my plant. No wonder that poor thing has yellow leaf.

"Coffee it's a dangerous drug that gives addiction to this plant"
That's what I wrote on a note and pasted it on my plant vase. So it can survive a little longer.
I hope.

Or maybe it's better if I buy a plant that drinks coffee, more than water.

Spero di non rinascere come una pianta che ti appartiene.

domanda trabocchetto: ma perche' ti curo io o per i miei golleghi? haha

poi, per rinascere pianta, devi aver fatto veramente una vita nel disprezzo totale di ogni divinita' e forma di vita...

Ho qualche speranza, allora...

Change the post:
"this plant loves cocaine not coffee".
It'll work better.
