  • An illustration of an office. There's a man wearing a mask sitting at a computer behind a cubicle wall looking up to a man standing with his arms on the cubicle wall. The man who is standing is smiling and talking to the man behind the desk, who also appears to be smiling under his mask. The word "Co-Worked" is in the upper-left corner.
    Co-Worked: The Good, Bad & Ambivalent of the Office Bestie (Revisited)
    Kaia Findlay
    Anita wouldn't have made it through her 20s without her work friends. But now that she's a manager and working in a hybrid office, she's noticed that work friendships don't come as easily as they used to. A psychologist answers her burning workplace relationship questions and dives into the surprising amount of data about work besties. Plus, a Gen Z writer urges her to re-think the importance of work as a primary social hub.

  • Illustration of the same person in side-profile view in three stages of working. At the far left is a femme-presenting person with done-up hair that is in the colors of an active fire flame appearing to be typing; next is the same person partially slumped over with the bottom part of their hair partially burnt looking dismayed; the third is the person fully slumped over, resting their head on their hands with their hair looking like embers of a fire. Above this illustration are the words "Burned Out."
