Pic: Workmates annoying you in the office? This guy’s desk fort could be the solution

He’s only gone and built a fort around his desk…

When you work in an open plan office or any office for that matter, sometimes you want some quiet time. However, the problem is that because there’s so many people milling around the place, it’s quite a difficult thing to achieve unless you take refuge in the bathroom for 15 minutes but that’s weird, don’t do that.

A gentleman in the UK has come up with a possible solution to the problem of noise pollution in the office (we’re great craic, honest). The man has gone all Tim ‘The Toolman’ Taylor on it and built a fort around his desk.

We’re not sure how soundproof the fort is but it sure offers a bit more privacy although we’ve a feeling he’s the kind of lad who deletes his browser history every evening. It’s great handy work to be fair…
