Messy Desks
A Fine Retort
I cleaned it last week so it's
not too bad
Let
me guess. Half of you have had these words hurled your way.
"No wonder you didn't/can't/never[ ____ fill in
______ ], with a messy desk like that!"
I thought so. Cut on the
dotted line, and pin to the wall over your desk
Where I used to work, we had a roving herd of clean nazis that walked around from cube to cube looking for poltroons and scalawags and in lieu of same they wrote up messy desks. I always had to at least have it ok - not as good as numb nuts but, at least you could see the surface - most of the time.
Well, my comment was toward Tim W. whose computer desk looks like yours. But, honestly, between me or Mr. Juice it would have to be...a TIE! omg, we're so messy. And yet. We know where stuff is, eh?
As a salty Captain in Okinawa, the Battalion XO decided to hold an unannounced inspection of the officer's quarters. Mine were easily the most disasterous as I am a failed housekeeper. When he brought the state of my quarters to my attention, I pointed out that if he didn't want to be offended, he probably shouldn't go there.
didn't realize he had any to numb

Rodger, just sent you an email I thought you might like to adapt or use. You are welcome!

Thanks Juice, I'm touched you remember. A neat desk is a sign of empty head. And never confuse neatness and organization.

ReplyDeleteMrs Juice is being so nice, it sounds like there is a foot massage in her future.
ReplyDeleteMr. Juice
@Tim,
ReplyDeleteCase in point, numb nuts. Empty desk top empty head.
BTW, William F. Buckley's desk! Hory clap! The messier the brainier?
ReplyDeleteNo effing way WV: swiness! ;D
I just printed this and put it on the desk of the High Priestess of the Church of Anal Retention. Hell, I didn't need sex this month anyway.
ReplyDelete?? You need 2 for sex?

A clean desk is the sign of a diseased mind.

Cluttered desk, cluttered mind.
ReplyDeleteEmpty desk, empty mind.
