There are a lot of attractive folks at my job and, because of where my cube's situated, I see them. A lot. I've been enjoying it but am wondering if that's the wrong attitude. These are my colleagues!
It's noraml to do so but don't fantacize about them that can led to problems when you have to interact with them.
PS don't stare.
And then don't send them creepy emails or stand at their mail box just outside their house, staring at their windows. They WILL call the cops on you...
I approve of eye candy at work. Just don't be a creep when you're checking them out. But then, people who creepily stare at coworkers are generally not conscious of it, so I think my advice would be lost on them.
I don't think there's anything wrong with finding another co-worker attractive. After all, we're only human, and it's part of our biology. I think where it gets creepy is if you stare, or make inappropriate comments, advances etc.
Treat your fellow co-workers with the same amount of respect that you'd treat your boss, or your friends, and I think you'll be fine.
If they didn't want you to look, they wouldn't dress that way.

You little tease. I always knew you braided your tail to draw attention to your best features.

I definitely don't stare. (I think). Or drool. (I think). In some ways I treat it as though I'm at a bar; I look but eyes dart away if there's a smidgen of a chance of eye contact. Or like back in high school where I wait until their back's to me. (Which is kinda the best part, since I like backsides ^_^).

It's okay. Look, but don't stare. Where do you work that everyone's so attractive? I dont' ask out of snark, my wife used to work in the fashion industry and had to get used to models running around in their underwear all day, which was hard(heh) on me when I visited.
like the previous posters said looking is fine but don't cross the line.
Besides your co-workers may find it very flattering. Hard to tell in the age of sexual harrasment the diffrence between appreciation or creepy.
And definitely don't lick a co-worker's stapler...at least while anyone else is around......that didn't end up well at all.....no wonder I can't find a job...:(

Ahh shoot, I was going to suggest putting up a webcam or a digital camera in some innocuous place and just record them. Then you could gawk all you wanted in the comfort of your own home (or on the laptop in the parking lot if a certain spousal unit would disprove of doing so at home).
But I guess all the other suggestions are much more rational... :-p
I was once pulled aside for "making someone
feel uncomfortable at work" one time. My
boss pulled me into his office and told me
to never speak to the person, avoid all contact
and in general don't ever stop by her desk. Of
course I was shocked, and had been talking to this
girl for sometime. I would always (cause I had a crush
on her) talk to her and was friendly, and would flirt a little,
but I never thought that I had stepped over the line.
So after feeling like a total bastard, I sat at my desk
trying to figure out what went wrong. Then I saw her go
into his office...and I started to plan out how I would put
my things into that "white box".
Turns out that someone had been "creeping her out" at the office,
but since they always saw me talking to her, they thought she
was referring to me (I'm not THAT creepy...). She went into
his office to straighten out the story, clearing my name.
Moral of the story: Being at the wrong end of that kind of thing really sucks...oh yea and I'm not THAT creepy...mostly.
