I Hate Mondays!

The Early Office Museum site has interesting vintage office photographs from 1904 - 1909. It doesn't look like these people were particular comfortable. They had wooden chairs that anybody who sat on one, can tell you these chairs are a pain to sit on all day long. How about the stools that don't have any back support? Sitting on them all day! What a good way to make the chiropractors happy! More pain, more money. Heh.

Having no privacy seemed like a drag when sharing the office with a lot of people back in those days. I am sure that today, lots of people can appreciate "their" cubes. Nice having privacy, and putting your toys on the desk. ;-) Oh yeah, and playing secretly on the web with your partner on the third floor.
