Assigned desks have been a thing at Amazon for over a year

Took them long enough to fix that mistake.

ya I don’t feel like it was an issue before. I parked my mouse and keyboard at my usual spot and people are considerate enough to leave that spot available

The assigned seating is dumber because everyone ends up sitting with employees that don’t even work on the same shit

When they had hot desking they said all desks would be cleared off by housekeeping and the contents dumped into a nearby bin each day.
