| | Be accommodating and considerate. Working in team setting works best when we acknowledge our peers individuality and can be tolerant and accepting with good judgment and good taste. |

| | These etiquettes apply even more so to a sharing office. They don't even have a panel in between them. |

| | I would love to have co-workers stop barging in, talking loud, eating chips (the sound of the bag drives me just as crazy and the crunching), and squatting (when I am traveling or on vacation). |

| | I think it would be good to set up some 'office hours' so an expectation could be set for when you are 'open' for conversation, discussion of work items etc. It lets others know you value private time and their time too. |

| | An employee in our office walk at lunch time and change into her walking clothes before she walks. After walking she changes back into her work clothing and hang her walking clothing in her cubicle to dry out. She always place her bra (sports or regular), the men passing can see this, I'm offended |

| | Please do not talk to yourself when working in a cubicle. Nothing is more annoying than hearing a from me-to-me conversation all day long. "Let's see...what to do now." "Where did I put my ___?" "Oh, there it is...." "Who could this be calling now?" Tal |

| | Speaker phones should only be used for conference calls or when you're at home. Speakerphones in close proximity to others it is particularly obnoxious and rude. Can you imagine the chaos, and subsequent decibal level, if everyone chose to be rude too? No one would be able to hear anything! |
