Me too! This owl is my work spirit animal. Damn open floorplan....

Open Floorplan is enough to get me looking for a new job.

It's not just how it makes me ineffective, it's the ignorance it reflects in upper management.

My biggest thing is that with no assigned spots, everyone just separates into their own cliques. There's only one other person on my team, and we are very opposite, so they go off somewhere else. So nobody else knows me after a year, and I have a lot of down time as I wait for my machines to run most of the day. So I could technically do whatever I want, but I feel uncomfortable whipping out a book or watching movies all day because there are people around me working. It just feels like purgatory. I'd hang out on my loading dock, but it's pretty filthy since it's open all along one side, plus there's no chair or desk or anything. It pays decent and otherwise I get left alone and most days only do like an hour of actual work, so I've been riding it out, but even as an introvert, it gets lonely some days...

Still from "The Trees Have Eyes" by M. Night Shyamalan.

Plot twist: the eyes come alive and eat you

I was thinking: there is no tree, the whole thing is the owl!

That's actually much more shamalamish

He makes all his movies around here, so you just kinda pick up second hand shamalan after a while...
