How To Know If You Are A Good Office Cubicle Mate

How do I know if I am a good cubicle-mate?

If you really want to know the truth about your cubicle behaviours ask your cubicle-mate. He or she may tell you that they don't like your perfume or aftershave, or they may not like your bangles and bracelets that you wear every day. That can be very annoying for people. You might find out that your cubicle-mate doesn't like your fingernail polish remover that you use twice a week, indeed you'd be amazed. Again if you ask your cubicle mate, "How is my cubicle behaviour? Is there anything I can do to improve?" they may tell you that they don't want you to pop your chewing gum, or any number of human things that you do. Yawning is also a common problem, especially people that just lean back and yawn in their cubicle. Yawning is contagious, not in the real sense but it's a human behaviour to mimic yawning and doctors don't even know why yawns happen. Indeed you may be yawning now as I say this, but in your office cubicle you may want to avoid letting people hear your yawn, or having body functions that are unappealing to your cubicle-mate. Remember if you ask them, you have to be willing to listen, and you cant get your feelings hurt because you asked. But a good office will run through some lists once in awhile of good cubicle behaviours, and make sure everybody knows what those good office cubicle behaviours are. And then everybody can sign an agreement and put it in the coffee room.
