Offices aren’t known for being the most pleasant places to be. A pale and lifeless halogen landscape crammed with cubicles and punctuated with the odd “Hang In There!” motivational poster.
Sure, sometimes the young and trendy startups will attempt to lure in young employees (and compensate for poor pay) by decking the place out in graffiti art and free snacks. But at the end of the day, most of us would rather work from a cozy home office.
Regardless of how dull your office is now, it would be hard to do worse than these workplaces, which range from disgusting to dangerous. Leaky ceilings, trashed bathrooms, and weird rules make these spots zoo-like at worst and depressing at best.
Keep going to feel better about the office you’re stuck in all day.
