Well in that case you're right, quit. Its a conspiracy. Watch out for black r/c helicopters over your cube. Trust no one.

You're just upset.. I can understand, but don't do anything rash.. you will regret it later.

You'll really be pissed when you have to worry about moving- into the streets- when you don't have a job anymore.

Lets see, you are getting paid to blow half a day moving you stuff into a larger cube only a short distance away. Personally I would/could make it last all day, but I am estimating 1/2 for most people.

Big deal.

Tear on a burrito? WTF is that supposed to mean? :Q

A walk sounds like a good idea. Really, when you think about it, it isn't a big deal. You have reason to be upset about having to move from your home before you're ready, but it isn't like they're transferring you to a different location or something like that.

It will be fine. :)

Hey, if it makes you feel any better, at least you are being moved closer to your group! As a fledgling with EDS we were in a very crowded office bldg and I was moved many times, the worst time being out into the hall right next to the door going into/out of a flight of stairs :D Very difficult to concentrate, luckily I didn't have any real work to do :p

sorry to hear that dude. I hope they have a legitimate reason, in most states you can't be evicted just because the landlord feels like it.

have had to move my desk/workstation 6 times in 4 years. big deal...
or is it that you are just worried that they are going to be able to see that you are screwing off instead of working now?
hell i'd fire your ass if it was that big of a deal for you to move 20 feet. obviously you are not a team player, and i wouldn't want you working for me.

There are lots of reasons why they might have asked you to move. However, the people in charge are your bosses (and they make more money than you.) You need to listen to them. And, threatening to quit because they moved you?? How do you behave when you have a really bad day??

That's nothing.

A few months ago I was asked to move literally across the aisle between rows of cubicles.

I just looked at my manager and said, "You gotta be kidding. You're making me move 10 feet?"

Well, he wasn't kidding.

yeah...I can sympathise with you...I hate moving..even if its 2 inches...but ya never know..maybe your new cubicle will have a view of the hot blonde or something...or maybe they are just putting you in that cubicle while they get your corner office ready...either way...relax and just take things for what they are worth...dont try to make it into a conspiracy



anyone else notice that I am not as rude lately??? this has got to stop....

yeah...wassup with that?..God forbid people start to like you...

hey...now I was trying to be sympathetic with you...relax a little bit man...life could be much much worse...they could have came and told you that you were demoted/laid off/fired/going to have to take a pay cut..but no...they ask you for something very small in comparison...yet you overreact to them and snap at the people who are trying to help you...maybe it would have been better if something worse had happened then you would realize how petty this is

Maybe you should unwad your panties; they seem a bit twisted.
