DAVID LETTERMAN'S TOP 10 DRAWBACKS TO WORKING IN A CUBICLE

#10.....Being told to "think outside the box" when you're in a
freakin' box all day long.

#9 .....Not being able to check e-mail attachments without turning
around to see who's behind you.

#8 ....Cubicle Walls do not offer much protection from any kind of gun fire.

#7 .....That nagging feeling that if you press the right button,
you'll get a piece of cheese.

#6 ....Lack of roof rafters for the noose.

#5 .....The walls are too close together for the hammock to work right.

#4 ....23 power cords - 1 outlet.

#3 ....Prison cells are not only bigger, they also have beds.

#2 .....The carpet has been there since 1976 and shows more signs of
life than your co-workers.

And the #1 drawback to working in a cubicle is....

#1 ....You can't walk out and slam the door when you quit.

So hear ya on the negatives of working in a cubicle! I worked in one for a few years of my life too until I moved on up to just a desk in a shared office with another secretary. The email attachment thing and old carpet still apply!

I think my favorite is the jail cell. I could really use a bed in my office.

The closest I've ever come to life in a cubicle was when I worked for the FAA as a wordprocessor typing out lesson plans for training air traffic controllers. 6 of us shared an office, desks and terminals. And asbestos. Lots of asbestos dust.

Hilarious! I loved the no rafters for the noose one. And the piece of cheese.

Those are good, but I've never worked in a cubicle and can't really relate. Heck, I've never held a job where I worked with more than one person at a time. But Pman assures me it's basically hell.
