> programmers may dislike open floors, but sales people (apparently) love them, the bosses love them

Strange how at most tech companies I've worked at, programmers got open floors, while sales people and bosses got private offices, then. Why are we putting everybody in an environment they dislike? Let's Gale–Shapley this and swap rooms.

Yet in my experience sales people always get private offices, so clearly it's not simply about saving money above all else.
