Decorate Your Office -- If You Have One

Yet more research shows that having a private, personalized office space makes people more productive. In particular, people who have personal work spaces and decorate them with personal items suffer lower rates of emotional burnout. And yet executives who insist on having big, private offices for themselves keeping shoving all their employees into tiny cubicles, or even giving them shared space at a big table. You would think that with research showing that 70% of American workers don't care at all about their jobs, companies would be trying to keep them invested instead of dreaming up new ways to abuse and humiliate them.
