The Pandemic May Mean the End of the Open-Floor Office
Geez I would be so happy if cubicles made a comeback. The only people who are into open offices are sociopaths that never want to shut up and want to hold people hostage. It would be amazing to just go into work, maybe put a few photos up and then get stuck in. I always hate it in movies when people complain about “being stuck in a cubicle” when it’s better than getting stuck next to a gas bagger lol. What do you think?
The conversation about how to reconfigure the American workplace is taking place throughout the business world, from small start-ups to giant Wall Street firms. The design and furniture companies that have been hired for the makeovers say the virus may even be tilting workplaces back toward a concept they had been moving away from since the Mad Men era: privacy.
The question is whether any of the changes being contemplated will actually result in safer workplaces.
