Avoiding a cubicle position?

<p>In one contracting job that I had, they didn’t have any cubes available so they put me in the computer lab and gave me the console for a computer and a chair. I was right next to an air conditioning unit and the space that I had was a little wider than the console and big enough for a chair at the desk. So it was freezing cold, LOUD and I had no workspace. But they were paying me enough so that I really didn’t care.</p>
