I cool off while I check my e-mail before I change, but most jobs probably won't let you indulge yourself so.

Storage is a bit of an issue at work; we have hot desks, so nothing personal can be left on or under the desk. I have a small locker, but this is a 12 minute round trip to the bike storage area (with showers), so leaving clothes there doesn't save me time (park bike, walk to office in riding gear, pick up work clothes, walk back to bike area, shower, change, walk back to office). It's not ideal, but it's quicker to take clothes with me every day.
