ok but those are the same cisco phones they have at CTU in 24, I wouldn't get too complacent
After noon chair race heats down the long hall? Finals every Friday. Is that just me?!
Is your company hiring?
It's where they book Casting Couch events. My friend says, anyway. I don't how what that is.
People with no self respect are the ones doing 9-5. Anyone worked a 9-5 know how shit people are .
Would rather sell drugs than doing 9-5
May I ask what you do for a living?

A genuine cubicle like that would be a luxury
Seriously.
Open-plan office dwellers everywhere: "Tell me more about this 'cubicle'. Walls, you say?"
I don't know. My first job was in a cubicle and it was in the middle of a large floor. There wasn't any natural light and the cubicles spread in all directions for what felt like forever. Like, its nice to have your personal space but it sucks to have the hours blend together because you're in a liminal space where you can't tell if you're alive or dead.

Fast paced = we have understaffed and expect you to do more than your share of the work. Exciting = as people with better prospects leave our untenable work environment you will be expected to take on their responsibilities with no extra pay.
It gets fast-paced and exciting when the boss has An Idea on a Friday afternoon that must be completed before the end of the week.
And the idea?

That is a management cubicle.
This is the cubicle you are applying for: (chair not included)
Those walls are awful tall there, cant even see your monitor over it!
they can see your monitor fine with all the "security" software they put on the system.
I'd take a confessional booth over an open office floor.

Sure, that's how it starts but then all of a sudden you're a Jesus allegory.

This is just corp-speak for “we will burn you the fuck out”
Yeah but the dpi on the mouse is crazy high and no one knows how to slow the pointer down
