See hotdesking. An agile work environment lets you avoid this confrontation by picking up and going to sit between two of the sales team.

  Is this a joke or are you being serious? If your sales people do any work, they're incredibly noisy by being on the phone all the time.

    ...joke- hotdesking is also called out in the article.

    I was wondering if the joke was a little too dry, but yes it's a joke. Our workplace recently converted to an "agile workspace" and I have sales people sitting across from me regularly on the phone. :(

      You really need to be careful if you are afflicted with a very dry sense of humour. Too often you risk being taken seriously by management and your ideas being implemented.

        Another great idea for sabotage. Plausible deniability for awful suggestions.

          Another excellent example of why dry humour is so dangerous. Too often you risk your colleagues taking your suggestions seriously and carrying them out. If I was in HR I'd be keeping a close eye on you.

  You nearly had me for a second there. I could almost see that coming out of the mouth of a Scrum evangelist.

  Sounds very similar to chili dogging.
