The English Zone at my school is a converted science room, so my office is what used to be the prep/storage room at the back. It still has �غ�� written on the door, which is the way I like it because it makes it harder for people to find me.
Nice view, TV, DVD player, internet, central heating and air-con, but by far the best thing about it is that I have it to myself. I don't have to look busy for anyone, so the public school too-much-downtime factor just isn't an issue for me. |

| That the other teachers and students are always bringing me stuff. That if I don't like the atmosphere in the one staff room I can go to my desk at the other. |

The best thing about my office?
I'm no longer in it!  |

Good Internet, a sink (but no restroom...)
Handphone and FM reception is TERRIBLE! And the kindy students are always playing semi-supervised and screaming outside my window. |

| Oh yeah, that reminds me, the best thing by far - no little kids running around screaming, playing, and crying. Just the odd teenage girl whining her head off to her homeroom teacher about some stupid, inane little thing. |

Did you put them up or did they come with the office? |

The sunshine that seeps through a corner of a window at around 4.30pm.
The modelling agency that was supposed to open next week upstairs but has now moved to another premises.
The insistence of the Koreans that I eat every lunch time with them at exactly 12.30pm no matter what I am doing.
oh wait..you said BEST things....there are no kids running in the halls. |

| We've got bidets on the toilets (say what you will, but my arse is clean enough to eat off of) and a conference room with a nice 50" flat screen with all the associated hook-ups (DVD, Sky, connected laptop). The room doubles as our place to relax when no one else needs it. |

| View out the window of the baseball field across the street. I can take a break and catch the game when one is on. But even just watching practice is fun. |
