A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

(Business people) speaking a language familiar and dear to them. Its portentous nouns and verbs invest ordinary events with high adventure; executives walk among toner cartridges, caparisoned like knights. We should tolerate them - every person of spirit wants to ride a white horse. -William Strunk Jr. (The Elements of Style)

I'd love a cubical, at work we only had open spaces the last 15 years or so. It's so loud and distracting, I hate it. But the upper management always has their own individual office where they can just close the door.

The one up side to the open floor plan at work is it makes throwing nerf darts at co workers across the office easier.

Nothing is better when you’re frustrated than beaming a dart at your buddy, or starting a dart war.

That would make me explode. We had guys flying those mini quadcopters at the office, oh my god it was so annoying.

Hence the nerf.

I shot one with a slingshot and a nerf ball before it could get into the copy room...highlight of my career.
