In my current job, between October 2004 to January 2007, I shared an office with another colleague. Since her retirement in January 2007, I have largely been working on my own in my own office.
Due to moving offices, I am temporarily in an open-plan office, which is a bit of a culture shock! One way of coping is that I am listening to my MP3 player, so that I can block out other conversations and noise.
Out of curiosity, may I please ask others of your experiences, pros and cons, and coping mechanisms for working in open-plan offices?
