You’re lucky – an overhead cubby and 3 drawers. Plenty of places to hide booze.

The best offices I’ve worked at did cubicles. I don’t understand why people don’t like the isolation, maybe it’s about how much they enjoy working by themselves.
I don’t think it’s the isolation, but the endless beige monotony.
I didn’t mind my cubefarm when I was immersed in the cube, but it was hella depressing in the morning coming into that environment. Made me feel like a worn cog in the machine. Lunch, standing up to a beige hellscape, sucked all my creativity (which wasn’t great, as a designer).
Open floor plan, when that became the alternative, was worse, though.
Working from home is ideal. I haven’t been able to work for a few years, so maybe I’m out of touch, but I can’t fathom why anyone is against working from home, especially in software dev. It’s the best of all worlds – no office space fees, and most of us will work extra hours in our cosy environment.
e: I was more productive working from home than ever, and would even work outside hours without reporting it because I was just happy to be creating things. I dreamt about my project – in a good way – and implemented ideas like that. Why would a CEO who claims to have the slightest idea about things not want that, unless they’re an idiot?
e2: That’s not to devalue our worth – rereading this, I can see how it could read that way. What I’m saying is when your skills align well with what you like to do and you make a career in that, it’s a profitable combination; unfortunately, our whole economy is set up to select against that, which is a shame for all of us. Doubly so for the morons in charge.
