Darkest before the dawn
I just got the best news I've heard for almost a year.
And it's a little silly actually.
My desk is in a cube farm inside a large warehouse where very large industrial destop publishing style printers are. The cube farm has no roof and the ambient noise is pretty loud. Normal conversation can be hard to understand without speaking a little louder than normal. On top of this, I have the desk next to the entrance of the cube farm (6 desks total) and everyone that enters to see someone basically disturbs me in some fashion. It is a bad distraction for me because I've never had a desk in a cube, I've always had offices with doors where I could get some peace and quiet and get work done.
So my "boss" today tells me I'm moving to another building where the cubes have actual doors and they are enclosed in a separate office space where it is quiet.
The sad part is that I've been asking since I started this job to move there, since there has been an empty cube in that space for almost a year.
But this little news just seriously made my year. It's the little things in life I guess.

Noise chases away the words sometimes, i think. (Comment this)
