Yeah, I said it! We're office pimps! We love dangling them in front of people, teasing them, making them do tricks and jump through hoops to get one! You know you want one, how bad do you want it? What you don't know is the joke is on you when it happens!
The thing I love most about cubicles, especially in our environment, is your out in the open, your in the mix, part of the scene, blended, anonymous and nobody cares what your up to for the most part! You can put your funny pictures up, have funky pens and groovy books, silly screen savers, be a general mess and no one says a thing, as long as you get your work done,its your space and your golden!
I've included a few picks to demonstrate my point...look out!! On the left my buddy goofing in her cube, on the right, part of my beloved hole! Hey, they can't get any close to me than this, its all good!
Offices, here anyway, all glass, sliding doors, the computers are facing out, so everybody walking by can see what your doing, or what your not doing, and believe me everyone looks, can't help it, it automatic! Your on display in your very own fishbowl! Just when you think you've carved out your little corner of our world, people start commenting on your decor, the style police get involved, there's discussions, opinions, whispers, why are they talking to so and so, why is the door closed etc...really its hilarious and ridiculous!
You know the saying...be careful what you wish for, you just may get it!
Beware the office pimps...you may end up longing for the good old days!
And we're off...
