Opinions on this blog are all mine.
It might e just me, but I reckon you can always tell the desk of an IT/computer expert/geek guycompared to a regular office monkey.
The IT person sees the computer as a work tool and subsequently the desk is usually a riot of peripherals, papers, discs and detritus. The regular office types tend to keep their desks much cleaner and orderly. Is that a fair comment?
sounds like a fair comment to me. mine is usually a complete wreck with computer crap, a quick look round the it department seems to agree with you as well
Heh… it’s looking a little more like mine. You just need the cats on the monitors and a few food wrappers here and there.
I figure you can a lot about a person from their desk. Hmmmm, you are way tidier than me.
I read recently something to the effect of: “Strong poets [writers/artists] steal good ideas. Weak ones just imitate them.”
My desk is messy and I’m an IT professional. I hate admin in general so I’m not proving one theory or another with my admission :D
I think I like Meme’s
Memes are not new, but participating in them is new … for me at least.
Apparently it’s something an “average Australian” does these days. :D
I’m a bit behind, but I’ll start with the desk – since I’m sitting at it.
