Knock twice on the invisible door


The door is that thin line drawn on the industrial carpet between managers and underlings, full-time and part-time, or front office and back. 

Naturally, there are exceptions to be found, such as in a company that´s experiencing electric growth or in one where no one has a door. 

If you do have a door, chances are it means that you also have an office, and just as you would hate for someone to swoop into your office when your door was closed, you should ask permission to enter someone´s cube. 

Since the door to the cube is completely invisible to the naked eye, make a show of knocking on the cube wall and say something cute, like

“knock, knock” or

mind if I come in?”
