Complaining about our new office building

Thread Content

The company has moved from the city center to the suburbs. I recently moved to a newly renovated office building; it looks impressive from the outside, but once you’re inside, there’s really nothing negative to say about it. Seen from above, the office building has a concave shape, with its flat side facing south and its two corners facing north. The building has three floors; on the south-facing side, there are only seven or eight offices for the managers, while the rest of the space is used as exhibition areas, stairwells, and toilets That’s right, even the toilet faces south! ! ! Then, us ordinary office workers are located in a large area on the west side of the office building. The rooms at the very western end, with windows from which one can see the sunset, are reserved for the department heads; as for us, we can only enjoy the views of the northern landscape. The office building has a symmetrical shape; if the west side doesn’t work, what about the east side? There’s plenty of sunlight there throughout the morning as well. The east side features a basketball court and a cafeteria! It’s infuriating to see all that sunlight in the south just wasted like that! The weather is sunny, but we still have to keep the lights and air conditioner on in our office to stay warm; on cloudy days it’s completely dark inside (since the bulbs aren’t very powerful). I wonder if that designer sneezes every day.

:Lol, as long as the boss feels fine, go check if it’s lit in the boss’s room

Indeed, this design is quite bizarre. Try hard; you can do it too, in the positive-room.

The appearance is impressive and suits a leader’s taste. :lol

Suddenly, I think this is a way to motivate employees to grow! Look, once you’re in a leadership position, you’ll have the sun shining on you! :lol

;P We’re encouraging our leaders to hurry and move from the west-facing rooms to the south-facing rooms, hahaha.

We estimate that the expanse of water in front of the building, near the fire pond, was determined based on feng shui principles.

Well, I can only say it was designed by a feng shui expert~~ Hehe

Wasn’t this layout also decided by your boss? Who gets to make the design decisions!

Is the boss even deciding on the direction of the toilet as well? Shouldn’t the design point out to the owner this energy-inefficient approach?
