Desks Revealing All...


Don't you just hate those 'body-language-analysts' who take every little gesture you make and translate it into some epic that reveals your inner soul? You instantly find yourself uncrossing your arms, legs and every other crossed part of your body, and screaming 'I'm NOT being defensive!!!'.

Now of course, one other area that speaks volumes about who you are is your desk space (or home office).

Is your desk squeaky clean? Do you spend 15 mins at the end of each day obsessively and meticulously filing every e-mail you've printed off and every scrap piece of paper you've written on?

Or, like me, do you entertain creative mess? You feed off your unique filing system and enjoy the fact that you alone in the whole universe (apart from God) knows EXACTLY where that important document is stored.

Apparently now, some office workers are under the (misguided) assumption, that having a clear desk is a clear way to climb the career ladder, according to Office Angels.

What do identify yourself as?
- OCD: Organised Clutter-Free
- CAD: Casual About your Desk
- PMS: Personal Messy Space
- SOS: Stuff On Stuff (piled high!)

So if you're reading this on a screen that is half-hidden with papers, chocolate wrappers, surrounded by half-drunk cups of coffee, with your feet crossed and you're constantly scratching your nose, you're probably a psychoanalyst's dream. But don't worry - God still loves you!
