Cave Worker: Prefers a private office with a shut door
Cube Worker: Happy as a clam in Dilbertville
Commons Worker: Found in Starbucks with laptop open

Excerpted from recent WorkLog:

Unfortunately, these workers can not be found in today’s office building. Maybe companies can
be forgiven for not providing a workplace for this worker, having only recently been discovered
sitting in coffee shops with a laptop and a latte. Like a newly found species of bird, corporate
anthropologists are mystified by what exists in these environments that draws such workers
there in droves.

Equally unfortunate is the phenomena of lack of perception on the part of the worker. In other
words, most have no idea what species of worker bird they are, blindly migrating from one
company to another or from cube to cube. Haphazardly assigned work space based on job title
rather than personal productivity, they have been forced to adapt and accept their environment,
never given the opportunity to discover their personal work mode or know in which office
conditions they best thrive.
