I like experimental polls.

A few years ago, I might have said Private Bathroom, but I'd have to say Private Office now.

I have had a Private Office and I have had a totally not Private Office and 99% of the time I was wishing i was in my Private Office. It is just so hard to get work done in so many situations.

I've gotten pretty accustomed to the whole public bathroom thing. Yeah, it sucks when you've gotta go #2, but you learn to deal.

But, now I have the best of both worlds working from home .

I'm trying to picture the office where all of the employees work at desks in one shared common area--but then the office has, like, seventeen separate bathrooms--one for each person.

Does working from home count? LOL...

I loved having my own office, but I like working from home even more. And when I am on the road, the Hotel is my office so I guess I have the best of both worlds there.

Errrm. Are you from the Hattrick board? Otherwise, how can I not know somebody with over 2,000 posts?

Private bathroom. That way, I'd know I was the only one using it, and wouldn't have to fight with the butt gaskets prior to dropping the kids off at the pool.

If I have a private office, I'd probably sleep half the time. My performance review would suck.

Naw...MISL is dying...one of the main developers has fallen off of the planet, and I haven't touched a line of code in the game for over a year. On top of that, the hosting company I was with sold us off, and the move killed my site, and the one developer has all the code for it on his machine, and I didn't bring it down before the move (My fault there)

But I figured I came to FOFC because of HT, and I am in the General more than I am in the HT area, I might as well go to the name I use everywhere else.

5 or 6 years ago, I went 6 months without a private office and it was not an experience I enjoyed in the least. I feel sorry for those stuck in cubicles or sharing an office.

Man, nothing is quite as satisfying as using the common washroom and laying enough cable to frighten people. I'll take the private office, thankyouverymuch.

I have a private office, and I couldn't imagine being without it.
But I wish that people in my hallway would:
1) Shut their door if they're going to talk on speakerphone
2) Talk a little more quietly about non-work things

The bathroom would be nice, but completely unnecessary. I go maybe once or twice while at work and there's never anybody in there anyway. Guess that happens when you're a female working in a male-dominated world.
