I usually just picked up my laptop and went to a quiet location to work, especially out of the sun. It sucked though because I'd have to go from a dual-monitor setup to looking at a small laptop screen, so I couldn't win. On top of that annoyance in the immediate present, there were multiple announcements that the company would have to make cuts to our benefits to stay afloat, happening at some unspecified date, which further degraded morale. I and 20 other people got laid off, but I'm in a much better situation now.
