Office Space: What Does Your Desk Say About You?
When you do the math, and if you’re like most, you’re going to spend a
good portion of the rest of your life at a desk. It sounds scary, but if
you can make your desk a private oasis where you can be yourself, it’s
not that bad. How you decorate, organize, or creatively neglect that
space can tell the office a lot about you.
What has your desk been telling people? Here are a few common desk stereotypes that might apply to you.
The Hyper-Focused Organization Junkie
You’ve got it all together (or at least you’ve fooled everyone into thinking so) and every pen, paper clip, and memo has its place on your desk. You make use of pencil pouches to organize all the little guys that like to wander off and not a Friday afternoon goes by without taking a cleansing wipe to every square inch of the surface. The rest of the office knows that you aren’t one to mess around and you like to get your work done and bounce. For some, organization is a lifestyle; for others, it's a hassle. Absolutely nothing wrong with a little tidiness.
Organized Chaos: What Color Is Your Desk Again?
At first glance, people might see your clutter as a sign that you don’t quite have it all together at work. But the reality is you’re a super creative, innovative, too-busy-to-care person who has bigger fish to fry. Why do so many people care about how their desk looks anyway? As long as you can reach the keyboard and your coffee cup is on stable footing, power through and do what you gotta do.
The Snarky Accessories Person
Some people just have an attitude about everything—but it is not always a bad thing. For you, sarcasm is a second language, and the whole office knows that you tend to bring the sass even when they don't ask. Your desk does too with the assortment of accessories sporting quirky and bubbly phrases printed on them making a statement to onlookers.
Your cute pencil pouch is more there as a fashion statement than a practical work essential—what are you even keeping in there anyway? You have can koozies for your pen cups, and every single pen has some sort of phrase printed on it. You put a little bit of yourself into everything you do from your workspace to your actual work, and you're practically irreplaceable.
The Sticky Note Wallpaper
When was the last time you saw your screen? Sticky notes are super handy, so much so that some of us use them like little squares of wallpaper. From lists to reminders or doodles, if you're a proud sticky note decorator, don't hide it! You get things done and you like to stay on track while keeping it a little old school. While others might prefer a notes app on their phone, you like the tactile feel of ripping up a sticky note once the job is done. Just keep doing you!
