Walls. Walls gundammit! And again walls. And doors.

Open space sucks, sucks harder and sucks up to create total void and then more.

Open space surrounded by hotline operators and sales department is a whole new kind of hellish punishment. Probably in my past life I was a grindcore musician and now I have to suffer all the noise I created. I see no other explanation.

As a secondary gift: honest colleagues instead of cowardly poisonous carnivore weasels. Or a flamethrower and a 24 hours license to kill, in alternative.
