You’re lucky – an overhead cubby and 3 drawers. Plenty of places to hide booze.

Millennial here. I only briefly worked in a cubicle, when I was young, but I liked it as an environment. Not sure why the previous generation hated them so much.

They probably felt like rats in a cage or something similar. Very limiting and stifling, claustrophobic little boxes. I have to say though, if this little box gives me even an extra inch of privacy or silence I'll take it. Leave me alone while I'm working.

That and you can decorate a cubicle. Individuality still exists in a cube farm. In an open floor, you may as well be a Borg.
