On cube dwellers

Oh my God!

I am not one for expletives, but..OH MY GOD!. (ok..I lied, I bugger and fuck all the time)

Cube denizens everywhere, I have to ask. What is it about fellow dwellers that they have to have a conversation about nothing. I mean really nothing, LOUDLY. As my company seems to be run by committee, everything is a discussion. From the development of future business plans to where shall we have lunch (and as I have said, in the case of my boss, how hungry she is)

This mornings conversations so far ( I start at 8:30 and it is only 9:10) include, cat health issues, my stinking room mate, how far along with a proposal I am, I don’t think my boy friend loves me and oh what cute shoes.

But my favorite conversation was between the facilities manager & the office manager. A ten minute discussion on how to label the circuit breaker. Choice phrases were “ I don’t feel comfortable labeling one bobs office..as what if bob moves and in ten years we will not know where we are.” As a side note, all the offices have unique numbers on a floor plan, my thought, just use those numbers.

Maybe it is me, maybe it is not. Try it for me. Go grab two of your friends and stand in someone’s doorway to their cube. This will make sure you have a captive audience. Bring coffee if you like, or some noisily wrapped food. Make sure your victim has no way of escape, no music, no phone call, nothing. The talk to your friends, and most importantly, not the victim.

Talk about your friends new born and it’s health, how you saw the birthing pictures. The case of diahorea you had while on vacation from drinking the local water (stomach flu in this case can be a laughing matter). Talk about how overworked you are ( for at least 20 minutes) and how you don’t have enough time to do your work (always good for a laugh).

Your victim will be ready to kill you within 5 minutes, and themselves within 10.

I am sure I am just as guilty as everyone else. Yet we all do it.

Office banter, just say no.

BTW, our IT department sent out an email this week saying if you get a zip file labeled “Yourdocument.zip” it is a virus, don’t open it.

Guess what?

Someone did.
