　　Before long, we were using it once a week. Then it became twice a week. We went from using it after work to using it in the mornings, and then at lunchtime, too.

I see co-workers furtively (偷偷摸摸地）sneaking down to the mailroom, eyes darting around suspiciously.

　　I know what's going through your mind as you read this.
