A Different Point of View

And the winner of last weeks competition is:

Sickofit with:

"I want to be a free range human because it is my god damn freaking right to be!"

Too true. Sounds like a heartfelt sentiment.

Which prompted me to see if I could find anything worse than a cubicle.

I was looking around for pictures of workspaces that could be considered worse than a cubicle and found this little gem. It looks as though it's in China. *shudder* I think I would end up killing someone if I had to work like this. It does indeed make a typical cubicle look good. I can't imagine how much fun this would be, it looks like there are hundreds of people all in the same room, all talking on the phone at the same time.

It's all very well saving money for the company, but this is ridiculous. If anyone knows where this was taken, please let me know.

I spent the last ten years of my working life as a massage therapist, and many of my clients came to me with work stress related issues. Either from poor ergonomics, or clashes with co-workers and bosses. I treated a lot of them very successfully by suggesting simple changes at work. Wearing a brightly colored sweater, adding some potted plants or flowers. Simple things, but they have a ripple effect on the way you feel and the way people around react to you. Try it and see. Wear a drab color sweater one day and a bright yellow one the next. See if there's a difference. Or bring in a plant or something personal and cheery. You never know, it might make the day seem a little better.

In the meantime, this week's competition:

"I don't go postal at work, because XXXXXXX"

As usual, my feeble effort:

I don't go postal at work because all my cubicle mates are paid up members of the NRA and have concealed carry permits.
