In my previous job as a high school workshop technician I was the only non-leadership staff member to have my own office which was a nice escape at certain points of the day. And a nice place to share a cup of tea with Miss. D and Mr. J at break time.
In my current job in a higher education lab I have a nice office that looks a little bit IT Crowd (US readers will have to google that one) but is lovely all the same. Its nice having your own space at work.
