cubicle larva I sit in this cubicle at this job of mine, looking through my computer screen, the closest thing i have to a window. caged in for eight dollars an hour, what a waste, i suppose every bird has a price i suppose that it had to end up this way, a burntout kid, right to work, no right to live, cheers to the life i lead in hell just want to see the sun shine again, want to feel the wind smile again, need to see that spark of life in your eyes one more time before the scene fades to black thank you for the beautiful web page 010220 ... beatnik SQUARESVILLE MAN! SQUARESVILLE! 010221 ... Dafremen I read the words of my fellow cubicle dweller and feel his pain, for he seems too numb to feel it for himself. Then I look at my space, cramped though it seems, and it seems more open somehow to me. MY window to the world (also a computer screen) is much bigger I imagine than my saddened counterpart's. When it takes me to this place, this place where I can blather. I realize I'm free in my tiny cubicle. I guess perhaps it's that, or that I make 35 an hour. 010221 ... dB Ah, the cubicle example. One of the best. Think of your cubicle as your mind. Right, now what is strange about your mind? That's right, it's got walls. Walls that aren't even real. If you break down the walls in your mind, then you will not be content with your surroundings. Humans have a tendency to get it into their heads what home should actually be, and will only feel comfortable there. You think you ended up in a cubicle by accident? Oh no, no way, you created that yourself. Once there your mind developed itself in to a replica of it surroundings (to put it one way), and now you can't get out. Once you get over the fact that it's all in your subconscious, you'll feel restless in your cubicle. At the moment you are unhappy in your cubicle, but you perfectly happy to stay there. Once those barriers in your head are gone, your subconscious will automatically move your body to somewhere more to it's liking. Nothing your body does is by accident, remember that. 010221 ... Dafremen He's right you know. I just broke wind in my cubicle and walked out. Trust me, it was no accident. Wonder if my cubicle-mates noticed. 010227 ... dB Fremen! You're in a Cubicle?!! Man you are way above that crap, same with alot of people on this board. Get out of there! By Odin, get the hell out of there! 010227 ... Dafremen Heheh I've had a biiiig office before man, but I kind of like this cubicle. See, for a computer geek like me, a cubicle cannot confine me, since I have this 20 inch portal through which I can escape. This is another world in here for me, and having done it for 23 years I'm actually more comfortable online than offline. My cubicle is a cozy place from which to embark on each day's adventure!(Plus the money ain't bad either :) ) 010314 ... dB Well if you want to look at it like that. If you are more comfortable online, then I suppose it's better than having to deal with people. 010314 ... Dafremen Amen to that. 010315 ... BrittStar i feel like i'm stuck in a room with no windows or doors. i am alone and its quiet. i'm watching my world on a big screen on one of the walls. i watch the mistakes, the errors as i shake my head. i'm trapped in this place. i can't get free. 010527 ... god masturbation may be the answer 010527 ... god michael bolton is sick_and_unnatural 020425 ... Daria WHat does michal bolton got to do with cubicles? 020426 ... silentbob in office_space the guy's name was michael bolton. "Why don't you just go by Mike if you hate it when people ask you if you're related to the singer?" "Why should I change my name? He's the one who makse shitty music" 020426 ... Daria I get it. 020430 ... gatorbabe i spent practically my whole summer in a maze of cubicles. i resisted the urge to scream, "don't you see?! we're all just droning bees in a giant corporate hive!" 020501 ... shot in the dark it's like a little room with no ceiling. if i were in a cubicled room i'd throw paper airplanes and interoffice faxballs all the time. 020507 ... radioactive talking parrot I don't think i conciously realized the word cubicle existed until seventh grade when danny sat under his desk repeating it for 50 minutes...then the bell rang and we went to lunch but i still can't get the sound of that word out of my head...it's a very strange word after hearing it so many times. after lunch he said moose... 020729 ... Syrope even with the headphones to drown out the row-over chattering, i can't seem to calm down. i don't want to be here right now. i want more hours in each day. 050713 ... reue Every day I sit here. How is it that I make 2x as much as I used to but somehow am 3x more in debt? I was excited about the new job. I thought to myself, "Hey, maybe you'll get somewhere." Yea, maybe I could - just not yet. Every week, every month its the same undying stress that comes down to how much money do you have and how much money do you owe. Skimp here and cut a corner there. It always comes back to haunt you. As soon as I make some headway, another thing creeps around the corner. Running out of ways to make it. What the hell do I do? 060315 what's it to you? who go blather from
