Yes, not many people here atm but when there is it's quite bad. If you just allow yourself to stop whatever you're doing and listen, it's the keyboard and mouse click clacker that drives you nuts the most. It's goes on and on and on, like a little abrasively-voiced shrill old grandma who doesn't stop talking about things, and just when you think she's stopped she carries on, despite your attempts to look elsewhere, laugh nervously and desperately clasp someone else's attention, like a locust burrowing deeper and deeper into your skull, a hundred tiny woodpeckers viciously working at your ear drums, a hundred MONKS laughing at you from beneath your temples, every key another pneumatic drill digging up pieces of your brain, and FINALLY comes the HAYSTACK of back-breaking straws - the mOBiLe PhoNE tUNeS, hahAHahAAaa, the horrible tinny nasty screeching symphonies of sAvAGry, LIke a fAst sPeAKInG MonOtoNIc mAN sPeAKing INto a PA system with a tEndenCy to pIErCe yOUr EaRS wITh tOO MucH vOLuMe ON EVERY 's' or 'f' sOuND, the ORCHESTRATION OF OPPRESSION LIKE A CRESCENDING SCREAM OF FEEDBACK TO BLOW OUT YOUR EYEBALLS!!!! AAAAAAARRRGGHHH!!!!

But if you don't specifically listen to it, you get used to it.

I need a new job. I can't stand offices and call centers.

I suggest you all watch a movie called Office Space

It's fine tbh, I think it's less about offices and more about which office you work in. People have a tendency to despise nien-to-five's too hastily. Certainly 'freethinkers'; Although whether you get on with it or not is down to what you want to do in life. :)

I used to like the late shifts, but, they really do suck now.

I wish I could get a 10-6 shift or 11-7 at the least.

Much louder... there is about 100 Tvs in this room, as well as computers and people.
