Sound/Smell proof my Cubicle

December 19, 2007 · Posted in General 

As I sit here (with headphones on) and still over hear EVERY stupid conversation that goes on throughout the day, I get more annoyed that people are so inconsiderate with their coworkers. This is why I am thinking about sound/smell proofing my cubicle.
Things like:

  • Cell phone ringers - turn them on vibrate, thats what the options for
  • Conversations - if personal, take them out of the office, I don’t care about what you did last night, or what you are doing tonight
  • Scents - perfumes and colognes use them sparsely
  • If you leave your cubicle take your phone with you
  • Talk in a normal decibel, If I can hear you, your talking to loud
  • Stop moaning or making stupid noises as they irritate everyone that surrounds you
  • If I can hear you from 30 feet away, your ANNOYING, Shut up!!

So based on a couple of these above issues has really determined me to Sound/Smell proof my cubicle. I don’t know how yet, but something has to be done as I should not be constantly bothered by irritations from my surroundings as they hinder my overall performance on doing my own job.
If anyone has some suggestions, you know how to contact me as I am going CRAZY!!

    To be perfectly honest… :P

    I used to work with a guy that invested (I think it was a lot of) money in noise canceling headphones. He claimed they even worked wonders on the subway.

    Smell canceling on the other hand may prove to be difficult. Let me know how it works out.
