Well yesterday was a slightly crap day. We had a meeting at work and we were told that there are some people in the office that gets distracted, so we are not allowed to have our cell phones on anymore. We are already not allowed to receive private phone calls at work, so between the hours of 08:00 and 16:00 we are to drop off the face of the earth. Then we were told that we should limit our private conversations in the the office as this is also distracting others. I just started enjoying this job, when they changed my area, putting more pressure on me and giving me an area which is not as cool as mine was, and now they are forcing us to work like we are in a Chinese sweatshop. I am not sure if I am just a little over sensitive to this, and if this kind of thing is happening all over the business world, but I think its archaic to make someone completely unreachable during office hours. When the hell must we do things and organise stuff. I understand the balance between work and private life, but this is also no balance. Then I went to gym and realised I gained weight, body fat and my BMI is up....All in all its been a shit day....At least I am getting a new car next week.

that would irritate me. How distracting could it be if your phone rings? Ok, so you keep the call short, what is the problem? And to go as far as to say that even conversations in the office need to be kept at a minimum is just stupid to me. I dont get it.
My office is loud. Crazy - busy - all the time. We work hard - but we play harder. And I think that is the secret to success.
Oooh, yay on the new car :)
