My new office is practically a dorm room. It's 14x19, so I'll be able to put in a couch and coffee table and stuff, and a mini-fridge. I'm down with it, even if my view is squat. Plus, it's closer to the front door, and I like to bark at the mailman.

Here are the pictures prior to move-in.

As you can see, my view is kind of squat - straight into another building if I'm sitting in the office. If I stand at the windows, I can get an oblique view down the street, which is okay (Photo 3). If I look the other direction, I can also see the people on the rowing machine at the YMCA gym.

Picture 5 is the inside wall of my office, which looks through glass into what is becoming our kitchen. I'd rather not have the windows, but I'll just put the blinds down. No big deal.

I knew you would make the right decision.

Nice window.

B is the right choice, or would be for me. I tend to position everything with my back to the windows anyway (I hate it when people can walk into my office and I have no idea they're there). In RainMan's case, this is particularly critical so he can stay on ChiefsPlanet 8 hours a day with no one noticing (excepting DaFace anyway).

You spend too many hours at the office to be uncomfortable temperature-wise. You'll not appreciate the view so much when you're sweating or shivering...

Your dilemna has created a bigger probelm.

I'm not paying for a window. He's there to work.

LMAO You should think about putting a tiny window at the top of his wall that he can't quite see out of just to keep his spirits up.

Na, I've been here 5 years - I practically own the place now. :D

I took an office on the same wall as Office A. It's not the corner (I'm not THAT senior), but I can't complain about the view.

I posted this on Facebook a while back:

I'll mention, however, that there's a roofing crew working on the building outside my current office at the moment. Not that day laborers are all that exciting to watch, but they're at least movement aside from pigeons.

I voted office A but looks like its B. They are both good though.

Do you get your own private bathroom?

I'd go with the better view - for no other reason that the impression it will make on clients. Be comfortable at home.
