You are relieved to hear the voice of Julie, the secretary for your division. Her name is really Juliet (you guess her parents were hopeless romantics), but everyone just calls her Julie for short. She is in her late thirties and, in your opinion, the most attractive lady at the office. You and her have recently bonded at the office, sharing a few lunch breaks together and chatting about office politics and personal lives after work. She even developed a nickname for you, calling you "Marky" every chance she gets. The thought of taking your relationship with her to the next level has crossed your mind several times, but being happily married to your wife Sarah, you quickly push the thought out of your mind each time.
"Hi Julie," you respond. "What's goin' on?"
"Well, I was wondering what you were planning to do for lunch today. One of my friends told me about this restaurant downtown that just opened up, and they just went on and on about how great it is. Whatcha think, Marky? Wanna join me there?"
You smile, ready to accept her lunch offer when the thought of an affair slips into your mind again. You realize that things might be getting a little bit out of control with Julie, and maybe you should stay here and get some work done instead.
Sensing your pause, she adds in a low voice, "I'll make it worth your while, Marky."
Should you go to lunch with Julie, or stay behind to try to catch up on your work?
