    They all have phones, right? And computers. Group chats!

    How do they get out of those cubicles? Climb over the desks?

    Might as well let people work remotely in that case. But then execs wouldn’t have that feeling of power over others.

    Then they send them off to “Team Building” seminars because they aren’t working effectively together.

    Still better than an “open office” with no cubicles

    I rather like that idea. I always hated it when someone would come into my office just to chat or gossip, folks, I have work to do!

    On the plus side, they allow pets. On the down side, they are all vicious guard dogs.

    Instead of worrying about what people are doing at any moment (inputs), how about setting expectations and managing their performance? Oh, sorry, I lost my head. That’s what talented supervisors do—and they’re pretty rare.
