Office etiquette

3 pointsxt_cube8y ago1 comments

I work as a software engineer at company X, we all have cubes with low walls and managers occupy the offices with doors on the perimeter of the building.

I find it annoying, disruptive and upsetting that people gather in offices to have loud discussions and fail to close the door.

Some managers are from foreign countries and have these discussions in their native language when meeting with employees of shared heritage, this I find borderline offensive.

I'm certain that I suffer from Misophonia; is this my problem? or am I cursed with a disproportional number of inconsiderate colleagues?

It's reasonable to ask people to be quieter and/or close the door.

If you complain about people speaking non-English in your office you're going to be fired for racism.
