Drawbacks To Working In A Cubicle

office-chair-800px1. Being told to “Think Outside the Box” when I’m in the darn box all day!

2. Not being able to check E-mail attachments without first seeing who is behind me.

3. Fabric cubicle walls do not offer much protection from any kind of gun fire.

4. That nagging feeling that if I just press the right button, I will get a piece of cheese.

5. Lack of roof rafters for the noose.

6. My walls are too close together for my hammock to work right.

7. 23 power cords, 1 outlet.

8. Prison cells are not only bigger, they have beds.

9. When tours come through, I get lots of peanuts thrown at me.

10. Can’t slam the door when you quit and walk out.

11. If you talk to yourself it causes all the surrounding cubicle inhabitants to pop their heads over the wall and say “What? I didn’t hear you.”

12. If your boss calls you and aske you to come into his office for a minute the walk there is like a funeral march… people hand you tissues as you pass and refuse to make eye contact.

13. You always have the feeling that someone is watching you, but by the time you turn to look they’re gone.

 

Amazing Whiteboard Artist

Office cubicles aren’t known for inspiring creativity. In fact, they have a reputation for doing just the opposite. But working in a confined space doesn’t always have to be stifling. Meet Bill Taylor, a data manager in Durham, North Carolina who recreates iconic works of art on a whiteboard in his cube. He spends only two to five minutes per day on his drawings, taking roughly six weeks to finish each piece — and then he leave it up for a day or two, photographs the finished product, wipes the board clean, and gets to work on his next masterpiece. “[T]here’s something about doing it this way that forces me to be patient, something I could always use more practice with,” Taylor told the Telegraph.
