tabber.gifAn Inconvenient Cubicle


Click To Play
Cubicle workers around the world gripe about air temperature control -- that is, the mega companies we work for blast the air conditioning all year round, forcing us to blast our space heaters all year round in a vicious cycle of waste....this video is part of a series of newscasts called "Cube News 1". Each short episode humorously addresses cubicle workers' issues from cube decor to noisy neighbors and in this episode, air quality control. "An Inconvienent Cubicle" is my response to an email from a fellow cube dweller seeking advice. I think that if the corporate world could commit to making seemingly small changes (set your air conditioners lower!!), they could have a huge impact on our planet.

I agree completely. I wish instead of wasting all that energy on AC all summer to keep offices at 65 degrees, the well fed executives would shed their 7 piece suits for lighter attire or do more physical work like the rest of us so their metabolism adjusts so their bodies don't carry around so much extra "insulation." What an unnecessary waste of energy and unneeded source of global warming. Very funny video to bring light to this problem.

Cute! I really like the forcast part.

Why is it that people want it to be cold in the summer, when it's supposed to be hot, and hot in the winter, when it's supposed to be cold? Me, I prefer my weather to be created by my planet, rather than an expensive box of metal.

Hi, I really liked this video. I think it is very funny, but it also proves a point that I believe is very relevant to the situation. However I would like to make the point clear that not everyone in the office wears a padded bra. Some of the men wear padded longjohns!!!!!!! :)
