One key way to deal with your dissatisfaction regarding the company’s new furniture is to go back to your office, sit down at your new desk, and thank your lucky stars that you are at a company that is in a position and has the mindset to make this kind of improvement. If you raise your concern about the furniture with your manager, you are likely to appear petty, ungrateful, and misguided.
In terms of the office furniture separating the top managers from the rest of the employees, the reality is that there are many factors that separate top management from the others, such as their titles, paychecks, office size and location, and numerous other perks that are typically bestowed on a company’s key leaders. Besides, most visitors to a company are aware of the job levels of the individuals with whom they meet, regardless of the furniture in their office.
There are issues every day at work, and employees at every level need to pick the battles that are worth fighting. Complaining about the disparity between your new furniture and that of the senior management team is a battle best left unfought.
