Yeah, it's nice to have one, and I really, really like the view in Office A. The photos don't do it justice. But I think my main window goals are just to have a window where I can see the weather and get a little natural light. So while a panorama would be nice, I'll just stare at the office drones in the next building.

I've never had an office without a window. It would suck. It sucked enough that my new(er) employer didn't have windows that opened.

And this is DaFace's new office.

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

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.

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:

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...

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.
