> At least I can close the door
Just as a reminder for the youth: in the ancient times, doors used to be de rigueur for professional software folk.
(I don't know which of you all messed that up, but whoever they are ought to be ashamed of themselves)
- klez 2y agoWhen we moved office from one with actual rooms with max 4 people in it to an open space I cried a little internally. Our boss proceeded to extol the virtues of an open space for exchange of ideas and collaboration. Guess who was a stable occupant of one of the conference rooms after less than one month and stopped coming to the office altogether after a while. Working from home now is bliss. If I'll ever start working in a shared workspace again I want an actual office.

One of his claims was that he had a statistic that showed that a closeable door and muteable telephone resulted in 10x productivity for programmers / sw-engs.
