    i'd guess we are 40% office. but almost all have window's. :x

    when the day comes to get a new gig...if i have any bargining power, the request will be a nice salary first, followed closely by seating arragement....and then vacation time.

    True. My old job look liked that one. My new job is one in which you can actually walk into it. Still: No door.

    ^^^ no, those cubes with the half walls (where everybody can see you) are shitty cubes.
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Warning, people will walk in your cube when they have to talk to the person on the other side of the wall instead of walking around, and they will always assume you are listening/paying attention to everything around you.

    Stock up on rubber band guns and other throwable things...



    I got less work done. A LOT less... :(

    Wow...you are very persuasive. How could I turn down an offer for a drunk employee washing carving knives and such. What could go wrong?
