I'm glad you've turned it into such a positive!

: ) Oh, Devon. I kinda wish you could have talked to my boss for me... maybe there'd be a different outcome.

: )

Thank you...

Where did you find that funny picture?! I have some more positives. Everyone will be able to admire your new shoes/outfit when you wear one to work. Everyone will know when your hubby (or puppy) sends you flowers. You can share your puppy photos to anyone who walks by! And you will know everyone else's business! (okay, that is a pro and con!)

Ohh, I LIKE these... wonderful. Except for one thing. I've rolled over long ago with being fashionable, and wear my UGGs each and every day of the work week. No matter how well they match. Horrible. But, if I'm gonna rock the cube life, than I'm gonna be comfortable.

: )

Thanks, Kelly!

You can keep up on all the gossip. (Not that you can get away from it)

You can sing and entertain the troops.

You can more easily share your germs when sick.

and the opposite of all these also apply. Joy!

Ohh, I like that. I can more easily entertain the troups. That's right. More air reale state, if you will.

I sat in a cubicle and I would google support for my position that a cubicle is no way to live. Sorry, you're trying to be positive! It made me mental. I had a big clock, many photos, a fake plant, a variety of food stuffs, a footstool, a heater....and a darn quick finger for minimizing my surfing when someone was Lurking.

Hah!! Spinregina, VERY funny. That's certainly the downside. You are simply a cog on the altar for all to peer at. Like a monkey in the zoo.

: )

LOL! i luv your attitude and the picture! :0) Funny! I can't think of anything witty to add. Need more coffee. If I do, I'll come back and post. :0)

Christy, I've already had 16 inches of coffee this morning. What does that say about me? Even coffee can't thoroughly inspire this situation...

: )

I used to keep a candy jar on my cubicle desk and bring in flowers. I think at one stage I even had a plant. I had photos and cartoons and captions pinned into the ghastly grey walls of my little prison. How about burning an aromatherapy tea light? At one stage I even had cushions on the floor so that working at a desk didn't get too tedious. Me, a bad influence? Nevah!

I know you're trying to be positive, but I hated my cubicle where I used to work. It was right on my boss's way to his office, and he could stop and look over my shoulder to see what I was working on. Half the time I wasn't working... because I hated that job, and there wasn't much to do. Not my fault!

I wrote sometimes, and that looked like working. Ahem.

But the good things... I could talk with everybody pretty easily. I didn't have to worry about being hated for having an office and an actual door, and it was always fun to decorate the cube for the holidays.

I love how you describe it like a bathtub wall. Perfect description. Hehe.

Good luck on staying positive. You have my sympathies.

Nicky, cushions on the floor ~ how SHAMELESSLY and WONDERFULLY indulgent! Oh, you are bad!!!

And Lady Glamis, same deal - absolutely. Per your every detail. Well, I will thrive, it's my vow to myself and to ALL zoo-like cube workers around the globe!!!!

: )

He he he.

Amen to "I hear and smell everything". I like my cubicle position because I can tell when someone puts food out for all of us to eat.

Advantages of a cubicle: Nobody is hoping for you to retire so they can take you place. Nobody is asking you if they can take a nap in your office during lunch.

Well, that's all I can think of. :)

Paul, very good!!! Yes, no one's clamoring to share my space, that's for sure.

: )

Hope you are well!!!!!

Hmm... Dilbert cartoons are more relevant and funny for you now.

If the FBI comes for you, you can duck and scuttle amongst the cubicles, Matrix-style.

Or you could start a cubicle war!

Miriam, Dilbert and I are now soul mates. Very sad, but very true.

; )

What a wonderfully positive way to look at it! :-) Hmmmm ... let's see, how about being able to pin things directly into the walls, without fear of retribution for destroying a 'real' wall! :-)

Perhaps this will turn into a Tom Sawyer situation. Where you're great attitude will convince everyone they need to be like you and live in a cubicle. Then, when the corner office, becomes vacant....you can scoot it!

You know, I liked working in a cube! It was kinda cool....made me feel as if I was a part of the office. Of course, that was a temp thing--not sure how I'd feel about forever.

My old company had a "cubicles for everyone" policy. So I never expected anything else.
And I loved throwing things around to neighbors :)

Oh Beth, we could certainly have fun as cube-bors, but no... it's just no good in the long term. Ughola!!! But, hello and take care!

Kelly H-Y, yeah, never thought of that. Heckya! Apulstery means more freedom for me!!!

And Barrie, if THIS is the case and I could SERIOUSLY pull that off, than I need to do something much larger with my life!!! : ) Very funny!!!

PJ, what a wise, wise Head Honcho your company had. A good, good person he was.

Fabulous!

Hey, I love the jungle ambiance of that picture. And a pastel cocoon? Any cocoon of mine will be pastel, for sure.

Love the pic and the post! :)

I worked in a cube a long time ago and liked it.. I think I was the only one.

Wow. Love how positive you are turning this situation into. And that picture totally rocks!

Everyone should have at least one cubicle job in their lives. I had one for about four and a half years. I was there just long enough to work my way up to a window location. Then I left.

It builds character and--I'm surprised no one I could see mentioned this--provides fodder for writing.

Way to be positive, Gottawrite Girl!

So is this the real picture of your cubicle or are you kidding me? I prefer your cubicle to my kitchen. It's cozy, don't you think?

Marcia, I love pastel, too. Favorite. Absolutely!

And Keri, WHAT??!!?? So crazy. I think you MIGHT Be the only one to like a cube!!!

: )

I want some of what you have!!!

Christina, it is a GOOD photo. Someone has my sense of humor out there... : ) Thanks for writing!

And AMD, it DOES build writing fodder - GREAT way to think about it! I suppose it IS a self-supporting right of passage for most.

: )

Rebecca, thanks... and Gutsy, NO, don't worry ~ that would be a bit TOO in your face! Mine is wuite pretty, with a light blue curtain across... : )

Hey, that looks familiar. I remember building forts like that with my kids. What fun that was.

I love the camo cube, but now I'm curious to see yours. A shower curtain? Really? That's awesome!!

A pastel cocoon sounds kind of nice...what a great idea to put a curtain up!

I would love to have some noise around my office...its too quite...hence the ipod

I haven't read your post yet because I want to say I'm sorry.

Somehow you got booted off my RSS feed list.

I was wondering why you weren't posting, so I finally came over to check it out.

Sorry!

I will read your post sometime. Ha ha.

Wow. I've never heard such a positive outlook about a cubicle before. That's impressive!

When I need an attitude adjustment, I'm coming to you.

: ) Thanks for stopping by, everyone, and now I gotta post a next writing goal to keep accountable to everyone!
