Only shared a room with a (male) colleague once -- while working for a modest TV station in my salad days. Never again. That's where the line gets drawn.

Any company that will force its employees to wait in line to shave and pee and listen to each other snore in order to save $100 has a basic problem with workforce valuation. I have always thought there was something perverse about Wal-Mart culture because of this policy, especially considering the executive compensation levels there.
