@chai2,
I would never leave a note like that - seriously her laugh is annoying, but then again there is alot of distracting noise when you work in such conditions as basically being gerbil in a habtitrat cage - why I do have my ear buds so when it gets bad I can pop them on and be in my happy place.
Just thought good I am moving from the one person who persists in having conference calls in an open area and from the other side a group that must have no work because they are always gathering and chatting right outside my space.
Doesn't matter where you sit when they have such inhumane conditions to work in. And guess what we are going to be moving next year to a new building - a GREEN building with GREEN seating.
You know what that means - yes we show the display - the lowest peions sit basically on a long table with one person next to them all down like an assembly line.
Me, being a bit higher - only have to sit with a person directly across from me - sorta picture elementary school with your desk touching the desk in front of you - but we do get a small divider.
I guess I will be working more days from home.
