"I am particularly irritated by the noise of your keyboard each morning when you write long emails or posts."

My E-mails are pretty short :-). However, I don't enjoy you telling your coworkers about your weekend every Monday morning.

Open offices are just stupid. They cause conflict where there shouldn't be.

In my parallel universe, you're also the one telling your coworkers about your weekend every Monday morning, but I agree with your point. :-)

Yes.

I would kill someone for a walled office, even if there was a high risk of life imprisonment, as long as there was some assurance that the prison cell would have walls.

At the same time, other people being inconsiderate doesn't excuse you being inconsiderate as well.
