OFFICE Q-U-E-S-T-I-O-N CLiCK to ReaD!?

Here's my question/conern:
I just got hired into a finance firm, and I work in a CUBICLE for about 8 to 10 hours each day. Sitting about 7 feet behind me is a very large and NOISY printer that has an internal fan running all day inside of it. I try to ignore it, but, it's not easy. I asked my manager if the printer can be moved to another location. She said no, but did offer me the option to switch MY location. So, naturally, I did. The new cubicle wasn't without IT'S fair share of problems. The A/C made the spot very chilly, and, since it is away from the printer, you can now clearly hear the office's fluxtuating A/C system- sounds like "brrrrrrr, ::pause::, brrrrrrr, ::pause, brrrrr..." So, now I have a dilemma. Stay with the Printer, or move to icy-annoying land. I am afraid that if I move, I will find the new spot as WORSE, and then the OLD spot (next to the printer) will be taken up by someone else. help...SUGGESTIONS PLEASE

Only you know what you can put up with. Can you bring a radio & some earphones to use while you are working? All offices have some noise, especially when you are in a cubicle. You just have to learn how to cope. Is it easier for you to cope with cold or noise? For me, noise.

Good luck

I feel for ya! My old cubi used to be under an ac - VERY uncomfortable to say the least. With the printer you may be able to drown it out a bit. For me I choose the printer as my neighbor :)
