Ah, another day in the data mines. As you sit down in your tiny, messy cube, fluorescent lights buzz overhead. You look at your grey walls and imagine yourself somewhere else ... anywhere else.

Sounds like you need a cube makeover.

Cube Chic, by Kelley L. Moore, presents 22 whimsical workspace makeovers, from the Nap Cube to the Cubism Cube. While you might not go to the extremes Moore did, each of her designs has elements you might want to use in your own sad, soulless little cubicle.

1. Boring typical cubical.
2. Vegas -- co-workers can pay for your lunches playing with your slot machine
3. Nap time -- that might get you in trouble Dagwood
4. CEO -- well we all can dream can't we?
5. Zen -- ah, for the Martial Artist at work I think
6. Pub -- a reminder of where you're going after work
7. Sci-fi -- My favorite... especially with that cool movie poster

Those are nice but I am of the belief that the only way a cubicle would not drive me nuts is to fill it full of concrete and never go in it again.... but that's just me

I don't have a cubicle to myself, but I'll have to take these in to see if we can agree on a way to decorate our helpdesk. Ten of us sharing an office, should be interesting to see if we ever reach an agreement. Personally I'm all for 3.

I have an office and the best thing is to be able to close the door and talk on speakerphone!

thee are studies that show that with closed doors work efficiency can go up. The same is true that the size of the office should be 10x10 feet to allow for enough stuff without being too much stuff.

Well... yeah, but when does someone else's stuff start becoming too much sh-t?
