What's the worst thing about working in an office with cubicles????

[Queasy]

The lights and having your back to the pathway between the cubicles. I hate the feeling of people walking behind me all day.

yep - but it is worse when combined with that spouse that never dials the direct extension so everyones phone rings:|

I moved 3 times my way up through the ranks to get a cublicle that has a window seat and is not along the walkway. Now not only can i open a window but also can tell when people are coming
Definately the worst part is the burnt popcorn smell...damn orville redinbaker and his infernal invention of the bag of popcorn. Why cant people microwave good things? like choclate chip cookies or donuts or...mmm donuts....
I even brought the microwave in that people use...I never thought it would be used for that vile purpsoe however.

Prarie Dogging - aka guy pops up behind partition and yells for your attention even though you COULD use the phone and call that person directly.

the smell

 

[Robet]

The guy next to me regularly eats cans of salmon at his desk.

 

[Akebona]

The smell of his fart b/c his 4 computers are so hot that he has to point a desktop fan near the back of the computers but the fan is really pointed down near the cracks of the cubicles and when he farts it comes flying right into your damn nose!!!!#@$!@##@%@#

Do you guys worry about getting fat asses? Man, I'd be thinking about that after seeing some of my wife's co-workers waddle out to the parking lot!

[Keego]

A friend used to work at a company with me, we were both like.. 18 so we slacked off a lot. Every time he went by my cube, he kicked my chair. Annoyed the heck outta me! :disgust:

 

[AvesPKS]

No, it's when your cube is set up with your computer facing away from the entrance, so you can't tell when someone is walking by...

 

[HomeBrewerDude]

funny thread! i used to share some space with a woman who had the stinkiest fvcking feet you can imagine. she was not happy when i told her that her feet smelled like dog.

 

[edro]

The 2 older women that talk to each other through the cubicle walls.......... about their pets. I really don't give a sh|t about the birthday cake and sweater you bought for your fvkin dog!
