“While the rest of the economy continues to nose dive, I’ve been blessed to work for a company that is growing. As a result, we just moved … in the process, I went from having an office of my own to a cubical. I don’t really mind it at all, but I get to hear everyone else talk (and vice versa).”
Is this YOU? Are you privy to every word spoken in your office, whether you like it or not? Can the guy four cubicles down quote your sales pitch verbatim and tell you what you order for lunch every Monday? If so, it might be time for change. (You wouldn’t want him to actually sell something anyway.)
You may have heard of “white noise.” For years, people like you have found that a low level of background noise can block out unwanted distractions (like the girl who recounts everything she ate that day and wonders why she isn’t married) so that you can focus on your job. Using “white noise” won’t fix every problem you have at work (said girl might crush on you), but it will enable you to concentrate for longer than a few minutes at a time. Try our free white noise generator for as long as you like. We dare you not to get hooked.
