Not so straight up with a twist, a dose of irreverent nonsense awaits.

The office in which I work has a design style that is known as Brutalist Modern. Ouch! Sounds painful to me. My desk however has a style that is known as Mannillafolderist Messiness. A kinder, gentler style I think, don't you?
Hey Robert - I always wondered what truck drivers kept in the cab to keep themselves amused on long hauls. I need commuting tips for my long drive.

Just a couple of comments...
1. It's a little less messy than I would expect it to be 2. Why aren't you wearing your shoes? 3. Looks like your chair took a leak or a poo on the floor. 4. Why don't you put all of the papers on your desk that you are not using in that box on top of your cube? 5. What is in your lunch bag? 6. You need a bigger monitor. How do they expect a developer to get any work done using that little screen? 7. No pictures? Not even of the doggies? 8. You need more desk room to write.
I tried to get to 10 but as you can see I didn't quite make it.
Hey Blondie: 1)I think that's a compliment. 2)I went to the gym - I have on sneakers so I can run out the door faster. 3)They don't clean the place well. 4)I am using all those papers. 5)Protein bars,yogurt, and gin. 6)I don't do a lot of work. It's all smoke and mirrors. 7)I have two pictures, you just can't see them. They are of the Coors Lite Twins. 8)Yes, I do need more room.
I should take a picture of my "workstation" during this last minute push - you would wonder how in sams hill I know where anything is or anything gets done. It gets done because you will see travel coffee mug (with coffee), Coke (the beverage, and Monster Khaos drinks all over. I am going to have to detox (decaffienate) (I know I did not spell that right but oh well)after 4/15.

...that I am outta City Hall in three weeks. I am giving my notice at work on Monday, something I hate to do. I have been very worried about the economic climate and my continued status as a dependent contractor at my current organization. My position is funded until June, but with a freeze both on hiring and overtime and worsening conditions, I feel I need to get out while I can. Being a contractor affords me no unemployment insurance and if things continue as they are, I think jobs will be harder to come by as June nears. I have accepted a position at a University in the Boston area. The commute will still pretty much stink, but it is a 35 hour week and there is the opportunity to work remotely (i.e. from my dining room) one day a week. I am really looking forward to joining this organization and very excited to be working in higher ed. Giving my notice is going to be very tough. I have been with my current organization, as both a full time employee and a contractor, for over 8 years
Up until last night, I thought I had tried everything. Dishwashing soap, dental floss, olive oil, two different kinds of hand lotion, ice, and Windex. I was just about to give up. However, my friends McMeaty and McCheesy were not. First came the WD-40 and lots of tugging. Standing over the kitchen sink, McMeaty gave it his all. Unfortunately the WD-40 not only lubed up my finger but his entire hand as well. No go there. Next came the dental floss. But the hand cream I had put on after the WD-40 only made the floss slip right off my finger without moving the ring. At this point, I had been sitting on the couch with my arm elevated for about ten minutes or so. This made the swelling go down quite a bit (thank you Chewy ). McMeaty was confident between the hand lotion and the reduction in swelling that another few pulls and twists would work. I sat on the couch, arm still elevated, while he patiently moved the ring up to my knuckle. Then wth a few more twists, turns, and tugging, the rin

I'm not sure what style my office has...government leftovers??
I'd am curious to see what other treasures your cube holds.
This government building actually won some sort of design award. It's kind of stark - plain gray cement walls and hardly any carpeting.
