Seems like you don't have to.

So, I can make one of those rooms my permanent office? Ok, I'm down with that. Otherwise, it's not the same thing.

I basically did this at my job. The open office chatter and sounds really affects me, and I really don't feel like pumping more sound into my ears all the time just to drown out the sound I don't want to listen to. So, I started grabbing the same small private space in our office every day and worked there all day long. Now everyone knows it as my "office", even though it's mostly said as a joke.

Is it so much to ask for silence at my own desk?
