You desk jockeys -- are you a cluttered, messy desk person or do you keep a neat, clean desk? And does it mean anything about you? I kept a cluttered desk with the surface inches deep in papers, books and what have you. I had an excuse; I was a newspaper editor and they are known for keeping stacks of articles they are writing and subjects for articles they might write next week or next year. I saw a picture of the desk of the editor of one of the Atlanta newspapers and his was so cluttered mine couldn't compare. At least I didn't have apple cores on my desk.
I had a friend whose desk top was almost clean with no more than one piece of paper on it at a time. How he functioned I do not know. He was a neatness freak; he allowed no one to smoke or eat in his car, and you better have clean shoes. His family complained that he took an hour and a half to take a shower. We were so different, but good friends.
