A while back, I relaid a comment that a friend made to me: he refered to cubes as veal boxes. I agreed whole heartedly. When I was in high school and college, I was outside a lot. I exercised, worked outside, just generally moved a lot. Now I am a tool, excuse me, the company's term is resource, I sit in my cube for 8-12 hours a day stared blank-eyed at a computer screen. I cannot move (striken by fear if I walk by my bosses' offices), I get no sunlight, and I live a sad, boring live. Since I don't move (and don't have time to exercise) my muscles atrophy. I except Arpi will provide the proper spelling. I sit here sadly bah-ing waiting for the butcher's axe to spare me from my miserable existance.

And that is why cubes are called veal boxes.

I agree, as well.

I'm seriously considering taking up some type of physical hobby. But, because I've become so accustomed to sitting on my ass all day, I just don't have the energy to do so. It's trully kind of sad. We bust our butts to get into a position where we don't have to do manual labor for a living, and then we get all out of shape because all we do is sit on our assess and drink soda or coffee all day.

Maybe I should take up Chair-Aerobics. ;-)

At the very least, your chair and the area of the floor directly below you will thank you :thumbs-up:
