    Thankfully my cube has a window, and there are only 4 cubes in the whole office, so it's not like its a total cube farm.

    Haha.. Zx14chick I don't take offense at it, because it's true...

    My boss and coworkers, who all work in cubicles in the actual office area (yes, there is one, where I had a desk before I got moved in here), like to come in here and complain about the noise in cube land... I'd love to switch with them!!!

    Ok done complaining.... I swear.

    I was in a cube farm for many years. Now my cube is nestled inside my very own office... with a window. :happy:

    I do, farms and farms of cubibles, sucking the life out of everyone who works in them.

    Well, you are a mannequin, so...

    I'm lucky. Front desk. Biggest desk in the office, biggest office in the building, and two walls that are completely filled with windows. Oh, and no one really stops by and the phones ring maybe 15 times a day. So I get all the perks...without actually having to deal with the public. Life is...pretty good!

    Downside: My boss can be a real jerk. Constantly complains when I eat brocolli or fish or anything he can smell. Literally threw my breakfast away one morning, and then put the microwave OUTSIDE for me to use.

    Yeah....he can be mean.

    I get to hide and work from the heart of the building a.k.a.the server room. The entirety of the radio station actually calls it "The Cave" and refer to me as the troll who lives in it.

    In my cube now too :] Mine is right between two work friends, so it's pretty nice because we can chat when we're bored.

    Yep - same here... in the middle of a small sales office with people talking on the phone all the time.... I can't hear myself think or type all my comments on the forums here... lol

    Edited to add: they are not actually even 'cubicles' they are several groupings of four desks facing each other divided by half walls that allow me to see the head of the person sitting in the desk facing me. I can reach out and slap him if I want to.... and sometimes. I really, really want to....

    Don't really have a cubicle. I'm in a two person office. My boss has an office in the front with a big window. I have the whole back of the office: 3 desks, two computers, the copy machines, bathroom and kitchen. My area is separated by a chest high desk and divider with a door in it.

    Not gonna lie, I'd be driven nuts if I were him too. I doubt I'd be aggressive like that about it, but I certainly get annoyed when co-workers eat particularly nasty smelling food in the workplace.

    I save my smelly fish and veggies for my home meals (for the record I love eating these things, but the smell is certainly offensive when it's not your meal).

    The owner of the company I work for got a sign made up for the NOC door reading, "Do Not Open. Never. Not Even In An Emergency!". Keeps the riff-raff out and for that, I thank him daily. :laugh:

    Wave*

    My supervisor is on the phone as I type. I have two co-workers chattering behind me non-stop in a language I do not understand.

    Yes, it is cubicle hell.

    Well I work in a cubical farm but I wouldn't call hell, in fact I enjoy it, the banter that we all have is great. We give each other crap all the time of course most of us are prior military and that's what we do.
    I guess for me I also have a knack for making the best of any situation.
