Are you sure theý weren't just joking around?

Who cares if they continued behind your back? It's thier game, let them play it.

I work in an office w younger, male(and female) Env Scientists & can tell you the stuff they/we get up to would make your eyes roll/water

I think the work env up in the US/Canuckland is a wee bit anal.. I hate the namsy pamsy PC brigade that ruins the fun in the office (I'm not saying this refers to your office!)

Then again, i'm part of the younger generation.
