Title: What does your desk at work look like?
Post by: Arkhan on November 04, 2011, 05:36:49 PM

nice desk ark! I especially love the Splatterhouse mask and Bucky O' Haire action figure.

I don't have a desk. :(

I have the inside of a truck, and it's not decorated at all.

People liked Bucky O'Hare?

Your desk looks like the desk of most of the IT guys where I work.  I envy those guys who get to wear jeans to work and have fun at their desk.  If I did something like that, I'd get an email within 30 minutes from my manager asking me to go into his office...  Enjoy your relaxed corporate culture, lots of us don't get that!

I actually move from my current desk to a new desk on the 11th.  My new desk overlooks the Buffalo Bisons (AAA) baseball stadium.  It's the first time I've ever had a window, and the view is actually really cool...   Hopefully I will remember to take a picture post-move.

I guess my lack of stuff is made up by the decent view...  though I still want toys.

^^^This.

I don't have any children's toys on my desk.

Anyway, it looks more like a shelf than a desk.  A desk requires actual working space.

.

identity discs aren't children's toys.

Anyway, the desk is like a giant L, so to the right of the dinosaur exhibit, is my computer.  To the right of that are books + yamato dioramas and Yoda.

As long as theres room for the keyboard, the rest of the desk is fair game.  Programmers don't need paper.  We have notepad.exe.

Everytime people are touring my workplace they stop and point at my desk and go WHOA. WHOA.  IS THAT *insert thing*!?  and I have to go "yes, it is!" and then "COOL THEY LET YOU DO THAT HERE?" and then I say "no, shh.  Don't tell"

Yeah i have been in Arizona for about 5 years now. I miss buffalo from time to time, but i dont think i would want to move back there. I'll tell you one thing, the food in AZ is crap compared to buffalo. We do have a Teds hotdogs in AZ though, and the guy that owns it is from buffalo and imports everything from buffalo like salin (sp) hotdogs and loganberry juice

Buffalo blows.  Most of NY does, after having driven across the whole entire dump.

It felt alot like when you are playing Ultima 4 and you can't tell if you're still moving or not while sailing the boat cause every tile looks the same.

I have driven across most of the U.S., excluding the west coast, and it all pretty much looks the same.  Occasionally you get to see a cool landmark, like the Nazi Indian outside of Buffalo, but normally it is all just the same stretch of road.  Not that Buffalo is awesome by any means, but you described any interstate drive.

Also, the view out my window is facing the bad part of town.  Lake Erie is behind me and downtown is on the other side of the building.  I will need to get some other pictures that better represent the city!

I work in a 4-person helpdesk at a small state university. A secretary(or as we say, "access control") in the frontdesk and two others in small rooms. I choose the work bench becasue it's more space and does not get as hot and stuffy as the two 10x10 office rooms.
