Shh, your coworkers might have a (not so dirty) little secret. YOU might have that same (again, not so dirty) little secret. If you or a worker started a new job during COVID, then chances are you indeed are carrying around a secret from your coworkers.

Before I get into that secret, I have to say, when I was gathering the info for this article, I was really quite surprised. You see, I had really thought Iowa had among the fewest COVID restrictions.

Sure, you may have seen 'em on Zoom or FaceTime or whatever, but do you know how tall they are? Or even what kind of pants/skirt/dress whatever they wear? Hm...? Do you?

Since it's now 2022 and we've seemingly moved on from COVID, perhaps you've returned to the office or, met those coworkers. If so, are they horribly disappointing in person? I never worked remotely during COVID, but I'd imagine if I had, my coworkers would have thought I was a bit short. Probably doesn't help that I go around telling everyone I'm 6 foot 3...
