Am I becoming an old fart?

Ok, with such a bait I can foresee the huge YES response... Joke apart, at my job we are a huge open office. And there often some people on the other side of the floor having humongously laugh every 30 seconds.. (particularly today) I find that very annoying! :mad: wonder whether this is a common reaction or not...

Yes you are. BTW, it is same for me as well. Many a times people will either be talking ever so loudly to each other or will be on a phone call and put it on speaker. It is horrible. This is the reason I have ear phones on for most of the day at office.

As far as I've noticed , Usually people of lesser worth talk loud & laugh loud (@ work). They do these to make their presence felt , which is otherwise NIL through other productive means. I can really talk in lengths of what I've observed with these people. And the other type, very much related to the above one, Usually walk into the office with all noses up. They tend to follow all rubbish body-language principals that teaches you how to walk confident, how to f*art confident & be all ass-ertive. Bullsh*t!

And yup it does. And it's not about getting old. It's about getting more sensible. When I was going through similar BS, I walked up to the director & requested him to do something about it. The message was gradually conveyed to the people who were doing it and ultimately the main character who created this nuisance habitually, was fired. (Lol he wasn't fired for laughing loud but for under performing continuously, you see the connection? ) :)

You are exactly right. Makes me think of this fellow I work with. He uses all the buzzwords, has CIO magazine delivered to the office, and throws out F'bombs about once an hour. Yet you ask him to do something, it never gets done and I get stuck doing it.

I'm surrounded by people who must be at phone to do their job, and a sales department with very little to do apart from talking about soccer and fantasoccer.

If I you had to ask that question then you probably are. :) But if you want to be sure, take a loud music test[^]. Old or not, open space is :thumbsdown:. Perhaps you should invest in good pair of headphones. I did it. Good luck!

Lol thanks. I had actually worked on different types of companies. Even the ones with the assembly line productions, interacting with contract labors. I feel HR definitely had a role there, there'd been a lot of labor issues everyday, right from cafeteria to sanitation. None of the worthy employees dare spend time on these trivial issues. HR shines there. :)

I oh so HATE open office concept. When I first started here I was on one side of the building that had proper full height walled cubes. Then a reorg happened and I was placed under a different manager on the opposite side of the building where they didn't have cubes but a snake of curved table sections. I went from having shelves and drawers to a table section that was barely big enough to hold my monitors. Then we moved buildings, my table is a little bigger and I use my stack of books (big thick things made of paper) as a partial barrier, it's almost 3 feet tall. The visual distraction of people moving about is almost as bad as the auditory. Yes, I have a big pair of over the ear headphones. They don't always have something playing in them but they are always on my head.
