    yeah, the luxury of having to keep the comp on your lap because there's no room on your daft tiny desk. can he actually fit his legs under it? looks a squeeze and his chairs not going any lower

    Do people still actually work in cubicles like that?

    Open plan offices FTW.

    I think it's more of an American thing or possibly for call centre workers. Would drive me mad.

    Both cubicles and open plan offices suck.

    Yes, lets listen in on everyones telephone calls, and all the desk neigbour's incessant gossip...

    So glad I have my own walled office.
