:Short answer: Yes. Long answer: An office doesn't strictly need a table... it just needs a chair as an "anchor" for the room-space. Now, nearly everyone thinks of an office as a chair behind a table or desk, but for Dwarves, the desk is optional. If you want, you can use that table as an "anchor" for a Dining Room that shares the same space as the office. If you do that, though, each of the two room-spaces (the Office and the Dining Room) will get only half-value for the quality of the items in that area. For best results, you'll want a separate, personal dining room for the Noble - assign it in the same way you assign bedrooms. --[[User:Nekojin|Nekojin]] 01:54, 27 August 2008 (EDT) | :Short answer: Yes.

:: They've *got* their own separate dining rooms. Every single one of them. And they still eat in their offices. That's why I'm disagreeing with the part of the article that says "You may wish to assign that dwarf his own dining room as well to avoid this thought." Because I DID assign them their own dining rooms and it did NOT avoid that thought. I am also disagreeing with the portion of the article that says "Alternatively just put a table next to the chair in said office." Because I DID put tables in their offices And they STILL kept insisting on eating in their offices and then whining about it. I'm testing a theory but I don't yet have enough data: what if I take that table in the office and use it to define a *second* dining room assigned to that noble; if he's going to eat there anyway, will that finally get rid of the negative thought? --[[User:Sev|Sev]] 02:43, 27 August 2008 (EDT) | :: They've *got* their own separate dining rooms.
