Re: Those cubicle things
The cubicle might have the capacity to be nice, but in practice it just isn't. The last place I worked with a cubicle system, my cubicle consisted of only two walls. One ended at head height. The other was a bit higher for the cabling. There was nothing at all behind me or to one side, so I did get a bit of sound that I didn't need. Of course, my cubicle was in a corner, but the ones in the middle were not better. They were very open, with low walls all around and positioned two people facing each other for no reason whatsoever. One side was wide open, with no illusion of a doorway. The cubicles were also big enough for the empty space behind you to be a bit annoying. I got the impression from the managers telling me directly that this structure was done specifically with the intention of being able to place a lot of people in that one section. Contrary to their wont, they managed that aspect pretty well.
