I've worked in a lot of offices in the DC metro area and what disturbs me more than anything in the workplace is a poorly planned office and "ugly" office furniture. Who can work comfortably in some of these environments? Did anybody give forethought to how people work before they threw a bunch of gray cubicle panels up in a large white room and assign it as a work space? Did anybody think about adequate lighting and noise reduction? After many complaints by employees nothing changes. I would like to tell every facilities manager...get a consultant to help you! Make a few improvements if a full renovation isn't in the budget. A little paint... a few stylish chairs, do some space planning . I won't give any specific horror stories but if you work in one of those panelled cubicles unite and speak up and out for.... Job Style.
