How Can I Make More Of My Cubicle?

    I dream longingly of my days in a 10'x10' cubicle.

    Hell, I even look back fondly on the 8'x8' cubicle I had in the building after that.

    No, I am stuck in an 8'x6' cubicle that requires me to sit down in my chair and then rotate it to get at my workstation, as there is insufficient room to pull the chair back. At least they replaced the burning task lights of death that they originally came with. And last year they made us pack up all our stuff in boxes so they could replace the padding in the walls with a less combustible version.

    John has a Grinch-based poem somewhere about our cubes being two sizes too small.
