How To Manage 20-Somethings: The Real Shit [Cubicle Culture]
Posted: June 24th, 2008, 3:50pm CDT by Hamilton Nolan
Tags: cubicle culture
Totally irrelevant newsweekly-turned-listicle-magazine US News & World Report brings you a straight-talking list of ten tips for managing an office full of 20-somethings, according to old business dude G.L. Hoffman. His pointers include "Add value," "Let them use their media," "They want standards," and "Expect varied, non-chain-of-command type communications." Whatever that means. As an actual 20-something, I'm communicating up G.L. Hoffman's chain of command that this list is straight up crapola. You are old and your advice is dorky, Mr. Hoffman! And too long—we 20-somethings have no attention span (or respect for our elders), due to drug use. After the jump, five real tips for managing an office full of 20-somethings, should you ever find yourself in such an unlucky position:- Food: Can we get some free food up in here?
- Shut Up: Dude, you are old and we already know how to do this stupid job, so please just shut up.
- Don't Sweat It: Don't sweat it, man. We got it all under control. Don't freak out.
- Money: Pay us more, why don't you?
- Work: It totally sucks. Nothing you can do about it. Sorry.

Office Nostalgia [Cubicle Culture]

It's a measure of the fluorescent-lit hellishness of the modern cubicle maze that we're consumed by nostalgia for office cultures that none of us remember. Part of the attraction of AMC's Mad Men is the show's depiction of Madison Avenue at the start of the 1960s, populated by hard-drinking chain-smoking womanizing ad executives and their large-breasted secretaries: in equal measure politically incorrect and glamorous. Or one can go further back to a Victorian era of flattering lighting, mad inventors' laboratories and a belief in technological progress which is only now coming back into fashion. In these period office environments, computers look out of place; but some customizers have solved that problem.(Photos via Web Urbanist, click to enlarge.)

When we heard Times staffers were getting nameplates for their cubicles' tambour doors, we were worried they were working in cages. Pictured, a real live cubicle at the New York Times. And now we know.
