Most of those people are fat. And how did that guy get a sledge hammer into the office?

Reminds me of The Office.

They were all programmers. Don't ever get into programming, Bee.

I've worked in \"cube-farm-phone-customer-service-land\", and yes, it can be like that. :P

Don't listen to Testi, though. Ever since I got into programming, the work environment has been a hundred times better. :)

Wouldn't programming jobs be more suited towards telecommuting nowadays?

No, it isn't like that.

Saw that a few years ago (yeah, it's that old). It was staged. Look at how the stuff around falls away without it's cables disturbing anything else. Same goes for the keyboard.

Also, the angle of the view is meant to look like a security camera... but it makes no sense because the only area that camera can actually watch much of anything is that one cubicle and it's centered on it.

Staged. period.

Yeah, I don't think they put security cameras in restrooms.

Theoretically, but that doesn't usually happen.

Yep. For individual programmers, it might not make a difference. For a team of programmers, though (like the group I work with), it would be a hinderance to telecommute.
