very interesting to find other folks who jibed with this comic at a young age. My mom and aunt had cubicle jobs and the entire idea seemed very fun to me. I recall looking at my 4th grade classroom and thinking we could really benefit from some cubicles.

Sadly I'm doomed to work in an open floorplan.

I wasn't exactly a daily reader at the time, but I was sad to hear when dilbert was pulled, and why. I tried to send him some fan mail when I heard he had fallen ill, but the email of his that I found had been deleted.

My very first job in tech I had a cubicle, but that was the only time. I’m also not a fan of open floor plans, but seems like they’re standard now. Feels like a “careful what you wish for” situation since everyone hated the idea of “cubicle farms” and wanted them gone (like the famous scene in Office Space), but somehow open floor plan is actually worse.

I actually had an office at my first tech job. It was more like a cubicle that went to the ceiling, with a sliding door. I didn't know how good I had it.
