:-) sroth, I have been in a similar setting, it was an area converted and was so cold. I wish I had a blanket for the shoulders! I didn't think of that

. I too tried to get out as much as possible. Thinking back I was a few pounds lighter when I had that job!
I have a normal cubie, nothing special. I sit about 10 cubies away from my boss, but I will say this place is comfortable temperature wise! Being a bit away from the boss has not been an issue at all. I actually like it better and can get more done than when I was right next to the bossies office and could be interrupted for every little detail. I hate to say it, I really don't care, if the bossie is away for a few minutes to use the bathroom or off to the cafeteria. As much as it sounds silly but those small comments take your mind away from what you are doing. You break what you are doing to go, ok, or some comment, or being interrupted 20 times a day going, "is the bossie busy?" by walker-by-ers. It sounds minor but I feel I get more things done being away.
