It's perhaps poetic in nature, but I heartily disagree with the content. I've never had such a bad morning that I actually wanted to be ensconced in my cubicle (which happens to be a disgusting beige-pink). And "release of work"? In a cubicle? Maybe it you happen to LOVE your job.
Overall the whole sentiment seems to be misplaced. But "gray and death-accented" is nice phrasing (the only salvageable part, unless you're easily seduced by words like 'fitful'.)
(No offense to the author, I just disagree with the gushing.)

"The kind of fitful start which makes any netizen long for the gray and death-accented cubicle release of work."
Holy crap, that's a great sentence! Whatever Engadget is paying Thomas Ricker, it isn't enough.
Hardly. He doesn't seem to know the first thing about tense consistency.
"Honey I've left, and I took the kids" ==> "Honey I've left, and I've taken the kids"
(Don't take me too seriously) :)
Hip Hip (...)
(..wait for it...)
Hoooray!
