that place sounds exactly like Drop Box, only a little smaller. I visited Drop Box last year.. glass conference rooms, open floor plan, almost no cubicals, everyone wearing headphones.
free lunch/drinks/snacks everyday... etc.
Headphones are the new cubicles.
Man, yeah - I'm wondering is this dog is just to old for that.

I am a very happy DO customer

You guys. The Cloud to Butt plugin makes this thread hysterical.

I think that there is a big missed opportunity in the opposite, a butt to cloud plugin.
Kiss my cloud!
Check on the cloud on her.
And so forth.

Sounds a bit nebulous.

You don't like my ideas? You can kiss my fat white cloud.

See what I did there?

I'm happy with having my own office. I don't even like cubicals, I get distracted too much.

I don't use it as a cubicle as much as I do a brick wall. I don't always have my headphones in, but I do more often now. Our office is unusually silent. So the little noises irritate me. On the flip side, I worked in a loud environment and would put them in to block out the noise so I could concentrate (ironic that you block noise with noise).
I also wear headphones to block out users. We have an open door policy, but I sit with my back to the door so when they see my headphones in, they just turn and leave. Sometimes I put my headphones in, even without music playing, just for that reason. Otherwise I would never get anything done.

I'm young and I don't think I could work in that type of environment.

That's why people like them. Cubicles are the "go to" for people looking to talk to friends at the office and have a solid excuse for why they did no work.

I'll actually agree with that. Having an actual office, even if it's no bigger than a cubical, with a door is definitely helpful in my ability to concentrate.

Yeah, I'm totally useless with cubicles or an open plan. If I hear people talking, I can't think. And cubicle plans means that someone is always talking about gambling or sports. Always. It never ends.
