Judge: I’m doing a show [Silicon Valley] about the tech world. Now, they’ve gotten rid of cubicles. They all brag about their open work space: “It’s all open.” I think a lot of people want cubicles back. People want some privacy. I think people try to keep dressing up work as something that’s not work. I think that’s almost more annoying than just the work itself. That’s carried on since Office Space came out. In general, no matter how workplaces change, human beings will find a way to be annoyed by other human beings.
