I’ve noticed in many old movies and shows there were offices with open floor plans, usually with managers’ private offices surrounding the open floor filled with desks. I thought cubicles were more of a modern thing.

Seemed to be ok then but, again, that was in shows.

One big diff from the old days though is that you could smoke in the office. Maybe if they allowed that again this type of thing could work. Smoke nazis would flip of course but it seems to me that smoke days were happier days.

They use smoke to calm bees, why not employees?

Depends on the type of smoke..

It was indeed a great day when the reeking stench of tobacco smoke was banished from public spaces.
