Anthony Shapley10 Reasons I love/hate working in an office

- Lazy People who try and palm every piece of work onto someone else. The e-mail pushers.
 - You would think the toilet would stay clean, being that its all the “intellectuals”, sadly there are still a few dirty bastards, regardless of industry.
 - Communication skills diminish. I find myself talking to the person next to me or opposite me over Live Messenger, because its easier than talking.
 - Noise, this is something Seth Godin talks about. There is so much “Noise” in office environment, its hard to focus on any single task for longer than 5 minutes without a distraction.
 - All the discreet ways to communicate opens up the flood gates to playing office politics, you all get to bitch about each other, without the other people knowing. What great fun that is.
 - Meetings about Meetings.. need I say more? It takes three meetings to schedule my work for a week. Then another two to review it.Â
 - On a positive note, its good for personal development, if your not copying and pasting all day.
  - Stinkers, occasionally you get a stinker who reeks more than rotten eggs. You can imagine the crusty armpits etc, its enough to make a grown man vomit.
 -  Going home early on a Friday if all is ok.. oh wait I don’t. Scratch that one.
 - Jibba Jabba about how terrible the company is doing.. So who knows what companies house is!?Â
