Sure, a private office is quite uncommon. But I don't see how you can criticize the author for a "highly developed sense of entitlement" in pointing out the shortcomings of open office plans and then making suggestions for both reducing the drawbacks and to encourage employers to allow more people to work from home. Honestly, it sounds like sour grapes on your part: Driven by distraction, a freelance copywriter asked for a private office but was denied one, although he made a compelling case for the increased productivity. As he went away, the copywriter remarked 'Oh, private offices are for people suffering from highly developed senses of entitlement! I don't know anybody who has one.' People who speak disparagingly of things that they cannot attain would do well to apply this story to themselves.
