Cubicle workers complain most often about noise - trying to hear themselves think over the sound of co-workers working, conversing, and talking on the phone. Some lose their temper and start yelling. Or get angry enough to throw something.

They call it 'desk rage' - anger at work that takes the form of yelling, verbal abuse, attacks on office equipment (usually computers), and even fistfights with office-mates.
