I can't speak for the original commenter, but it seems reasonable to me, because if your monitor is facing away from a wall, there is a constant burden of wondering who might be behind you and what they might think of what is on your screen. And this is when you're doing actual work.
When you're not doing work, it makes goofing off on the Internet less of a mental relief, and things are overall more stressful.
- spiritplumber 12y agoSame here. It's important to not feel like someone may hit you in the back of the head with no warning. Admittedly, it's not something that happens in most workplaces... most not all. It's a primal fear kind of thing, and doesn't have to be rational.
- bcbrown 12y agoYep, pretty much.
- freehunter 12y agoExactly. Take something like looking at documentation to see if C# uses printf(), print(), or print "". It's 100% work related, but it's kind of embarrassing that I forgot. I don't need my coworkers or boss seeing that.
