How Messy is Your Desk?
So I admit, I usually have a messy desk. This is a snapshot of my desk this afternoon.
I am a piler, and also like to use my inbox as my to do list, but also keep an email draft up to date that is truly my to do list. The top of the desk is usually where I keep things for two – three days while considering or looking through the project, opportunity, task, book, or item. Is that necessarily a bad thing?
How about you? Do you clean the ole desk off at the end of every day, or keep stacks and the organic feel for multiple days?



Mine is clean right now – I like to go ahead and straighten it 2-3 times a year. Normally it’s quite messy
Mine is so bad right now I hijacked another persons desk…well just the corner actually, and I use my laptop there.
Travis- you make me feel bad! Clean desk and all…. but I guess I have to look at that in context of 2-3 times a year!
Emily- I am with you on using other’s desks. I like to take the ole laptop and move around the office quite a bit myself.
Uhh…I don’t have a desk. I realized I couldn’t keep it clean. So, now my desk is a different coffee shop everyday. So, I guess its pretty clean.
Its current state: small piles.
Jeff- you are such a coffee shop snob…..
