    Why must we freeze all year round? In the winter, it is often 60 degrees (yes I track the temp daily) in the mornings when I get to work in my own cubicle. I think they turn the heat/ air off at 4pm every day. During the summer, I run my tiny heater all day, everyday. I believe hell is actually cold, because this place is awful. How do you get one of those work from home jobs? I really want one.

    I work with this guy. No joke. Same hair, same glasses, same sketchy mannerisms... All he's missing is the Swingline. Perhaps this Halloween I'll make it happen.

    I used to be in a cublice. Now I'm in a small office in the basement - it's cold and there are no windows anywhere. It was really dark too so we had 6 lamps in it but I got the overhead lighting replaced so it's a little better now.

    I was sharing it with two other people - one who is great, and one who would chew really loudly, burp frequently and let his garbage overflow - but he got moved :) So now there is just two of us. I miss daylight, and not having any idea what the weather is doing before I go outside, but at least being in the basement away from all the executives we can be a little more relaxed.

    My own personal cubicle hell, complete with the endless buzzing from the flickering fluorescent lights, layers of dust that fall every night from our out-dated air system, and a fantastic location right by the elevators where people like to congregate and chit chat loudly. Oh and endless overheard conversations about child birth and other stuff I'd rather not think about. Thank goodness for spotify.

    Love my job though- just taking a quick minute to whine a bit, haha.

    Only fun about cubicles is when we have an in-office wars.

    Rubber hand wars are common place.

    Best things is sneaking around the cubicles and scaring the crap out co-worker.

    No cubicle for me. I am on the move from the moment I get to work until the moment I leave. I never sit down.

    I'm in a cubicle. It's pretty private since it's at the back of the building. I only have one person next to me, so if I want to check MFP four times a day (I would never ever ever do that being that I'm so productive at work), I can.

    I used too. It does suck the life out of all who dwell there. So I quit. No more bosses for this clever primate! Although there is fun to be had in the cube farm..."Office Space" FTW! :smile:

    I love my cube, tucked in the corner of the research lab. I am dreading the move to the new building with the "collaboration friendly" office layout designed by extroverts who scare the crap out of us introverted, nerdy science people. Note: not all nerdy science people are introverts, just most of the people I work with.

    cubicle hell in a small room with 10 other WOMEN and 1 dude who may as well be a woman with how emotional he is. It is petty and dramatic and just terrible. My desk faces the wall and I have a coworker to my left and one to my right...both are obnoxious/poor mannered especially when it comes to eating. There are NO windows, the dust and chemical smell from the first floor fills our vents, and the other side of my wall is the bathroom.
