"I have a short attention span, a very short one, and I have very, abnormally poor energy levels, to such a point that while my physical strength can be up to snuff, my mind is always running at 8Mhz. I am a programmer. This is a problem. However, I find that some places are better to code at than others. If I can sit somewhere upright, looking down at the monitor, in a comfortable position, I can sometimes get some work done, and if my monitor is large, soft, and bright, I am better off still. Do soylentils have issues with location? What would you suggest for being able to sit down and code for hours, something I have NEVER been able to do?"

    I don't the bean counters are the problem, I think it's management. Managers have this stupid idea that open work spaces foster "collaboration", and that stuff gets done by getting a bunch of people together and having them flap their lips a lot. After all, that's all managers ever do: talk talk talk (and LOUDLY). They think everyone is just like them: extroverted and LOUD and needing to talk about everything.
