Normally, if you’re in a meeting called to figure out how to boost company morale, the last thing you might want to do– especially if you’re a middle-aged, single guy– is suggest a Naked Friday. In the United States, you’d probably be banned from offices for life for so much as suggesting a full-day of inter-office nudity. But one Newcastle guy pulled it off, and now he’s a hero to nudists everywhere…
According to the Telegraph:
David Taylor, a business psychologist, told workers at design and marketing onebestway, in Newcastle upon Tyne, that a Naked Friday idea would boost their team spirit.
Despite some initial reluctance, nearly all the staff took off all their clothes – except for one man, who wore a posing pouch, and one of two female workers, who kept on black underwear.
Sam Jackson, 23, the house manager, was the only woman to go fully naked. “It was brilliant. Now that we’ve seen each other naked, there are no barriers.”
Miss Jackson, the fact that there are no barriers is exactly why most people don’t want to go naked around their colleagues, some of whom need those barriers. Oh well– it seems to work for them…
