Stretches in Office

They repaired the college building and renovated the offices too. Instead of the old arrangement of tables in a row with chairs behind the tables for the office clerks and standing spaces in front of the tables for visitors including us doctors, the put up cubicles with tables and chairs inside for the office clerks and standing spaces in front of the tables for visitors including us doctors. It was supposed to be like corporate offices, I suppose. Unfortunately there was a mix up somewhere and the heights of the cubicle walls was nearly 5.5 feet. So the people standing outside have now to stretch their lower limbs and stand on their toes in order to catch a glimpse of the people inside the cubicles, and maintain that position to carry out any conversation with them. The office clerks may be happy because they suddenly have a privacy they never had before. No one can make out if they are manning their stations or are away, just by glancing into the office from outside. Theya re unhappy because the single ceiling fan does not provide any breeze that can reach inside the cubicles. The thickness of the walls of the cubicles is about a foot or so. They will probably stop bullets if there is war or terrorist attack. But they have taken away precious floor space. The offices used to look decidedly untidy and dirty in the past. Now they look decidedly discouraging and unfriendly. One advantage of the arrangement is that it makes visitors perform lower limb stretches, which helps loosen those seldom exercised joints, builds those seldom exercised muscles, and may increase height of those whose epiphyses have not yet fused.
