cubicles aren't soundproof

it's funny when you can hear your co-workers gossiping. i don't know what they think about the sound proofness of their cubicles, but i'm here to say, they aren't sound proof. so our office is moving. just to another floor of the same building so we have more space. the tech department is getting it's own, walled in area. there is no door, but there are walls. the walls are glass on 2 of the sides and the back wall is the doors to the server room and stuff like that. we're the only ones who need access to the server room. so the people who work in the other departments are just going to be in cubicles in their own sections. exactly like it is now. so the department that is directly next to the tech team right now is who i overheard talking this morning. one woman is saying, have you seen the progress on the new office? and the rest of them are like, yeah, it's looking good. and she says, do you know where we're gonna be? and someone says, just in cubicles on one side. and she says, you know where i'd like to be? in that little room with the windows. and someone says, that's going to be the tech team. and she says, yeah i know. what's up with that? not fair at all, eh? and the guy says, yeah i was down there and talking to the contractor and asked about the room and he said, yeah, that's where the computer geeks are going. and they all start laughing! and the woman goes, they are all geeks, aren't they! laugh, laugh. and the guy says, i know! they are! and then some other girl says, they're hiring, you know? but you need to pass a drug test. and the woman goes, i should apply and just take a lot of drugs just for the test. and they all laugh. i mean, COME ON!! are you kidding me?! first of all, you don't need to take drugs just for the drug test. you know you'd fail it anyway. second, don't bother applying, because you need to be considered for the job before you take the drug test. and knowing how to send an e-mail is a requirement. we're not going to teach you how to do that. third, grow the hell up!
