True Story:
I worked a few months programming in an open floor plan (all hardwood floors).
My commute from an to work was 3 hours each day.
The prog next to me was a Finger drummer + song hummer.
There was construction for a new building 20-30 feet from me (next building), and they were driving pillars into the ground for foundations (Booom Boom all day).
There was no AC during summer.
The washrooms/water would regularly be out of order for several hours ever 1-3 days.
All this happened simultaneously over the course of several months. I did finally quit, and I would not wish these conditions on my worse enemy.
