Office Talking Ban!!!

[jaketherave]

For the past 6 weeks, the boss on our floor has been trying to implement a ban on social chit chat.

 

He says several "team" members have complained they cannot concentrate for the chat.

 

This is the first time I have heard such nonesense in 15 years in I.T.

 

Has anyone else ever worked anywhere enduring such stupid office rules?

 

I am one of the main culprits, and have been hauled in several times now, and am seeking alternative employment ahead of my scheduled return to U.K. At first everyone thought it was a joke of some kind, but it is very true.

 

This is 2002 for goodness sake, but walking onto our floor, you would be forgiven for thinking you were back in Dcikensian times!!

I worked for a company where they had a clean desk policy. I.e. anything left on yor desk overnight got removed. I think that was a stupid idea. You want to see my desk now at [censored], its piled high with allsorts of shite, I like to think of it as creative clutter. I wouldn't be suprised if a family of mice were living amoungst the shite somewhere.

 

Not talking is a [censored] stupid idea. Going to [censored] is bad enough and I think its important that you can have a laugh when you are there. If you are a happy bunny at [censored] then you will be more productive.
