Damn this looks depressing
Still better than today’s industrial chicken coop that’s called an open floor plan office. At least you had privacy with those cubicles.
Now, it's been years since I wasn't WFH, but I've had an office, a cube, a right to park in a dying office's flexspace cube, and occasionally worked in bullpen open-plan stuff. That's also the order of preference: WFH, office, assigned cube (unless yours sucks), flex cube, punching yourself in the face, "open" plan.
Let's take the last vestige of personal space or signifier that your job is anything other than a knowledge worker assembly line and do away with it in the name of "collaboration." You will have no place for your red stapler or "Do it for Her" note, and you will be forced to do your work, which may be sensitive or may involve some trial and error, as well as putting any down-time you choose to take, on display for every asshole in the office who knows nothing about your productivity (as dangerous for the dedicated or ambitious as it is for the slacker). I didn't even like it when it was complete strangers at a coworking space.
I work in one of those. I hate that my co-workers can see me scratch every itch and hear every stomach rumble.
Hear hear. Number one reason to work from home is to wear sweatpants or basketball shorts. Number two reason is being able to scratch my nuts whenever, and that’s enabled by number one. Number three is being able to take a number two in peace pretty much whenever I have to, and not get stopped 6 times in the hallway to it.
I'll take it over women being almost universally assigned to the kitchen, whether they like it or not. Today's being your kids to work day was once called bring your daughter to work day, in an effort to get women in the workplace. I'm all for furthering our work culture change (without going full antiwork) but at least this is a step in the right direction to show that women can be more than a housewife.
I hope this place burns to the ground
"Dad! Don't say that! What if it actually happened!?"
At first I hated it. But now I love it. He seems a pillar of strength in a working dad kind of way. She seems like she's trying really hard to understand what this boring job entails. All around the accoutrements of early 1970s office life in an iconic yet doomed skyscraper. A beautiful moment captured.
At first she did not look like a kid. I had to zoom in.
he looks 60 but is probably 40
Wait a minute... is he... 
NO, I SEE IT. I did not think of that.
He’s Jimming the camera.
He looks thrilled.
No potato batteries at least.
They should put a more recent picture up as a comparison to the changes.
Ill go take a picture next TYKTWD
Does that newspaper say impeach?
Come, gaze upon the paperwork of my discontent.
This picture was taken closer to 9/11 than we currently are.

Math is hard. I won't delete my comment though as you should all find joy in my stupidity.
As a fellow math innumerate, I feel your pain.
Thank you for your integrity.
Don't worry, in five years, you'll not only be proven correct, your prediction will hold eternally. That's rare!
Thank you for the joy this morning!
The picture was taken closer to the construction of the pyramids than what we are today.
You da man, Hank!
