I just spent 5 mins looking for my stapler...
Can you see why it took so long.[^]

I see that you, like me, believe in the Clean Desk Policy.
I ensure that no dirt can reach my desk, by keeping it covered with junk.

It sometimes gets a little cluttered, but that is because I 'Work' so hard.
(I am using the word work somewhat experimentally here!)

I notice that you've cleverly put your chair on the opposite side of the desk from the computer.
I'm sure that most of us would laud that idea.

It Director here keeps going on about desks being clean and tidy.
I have resisted so far, but this weekend we get new smaller desks (much smaller).
This[^] is what it currently looks like, and I've tidied fairly recently.

Man, that is fairly bad.
The takeaway food bags are one thing, but the packet of johnnies under your monitor is not appropriate 
Nice to see the Footy Trophies, they add a little soul to the chaos.

Two empty ibuprofen boxes, and a half full one of Rennie.
I also have a packet of cress seed, for sowing in mischievous places.

I also see that you stare at the back of your monitor, and type on that keyboard upside down as well as read everything the same way. No wonder you can't get any work done!

For those wondering, Here[^] is picture of my desk from the reverse angle.
Note the Fan (to cool me as I work so hard)
Also note the giant rubber band ball used for stress relief (I throw it at people).

DD, I'm very impressed by the number of rubber stamps you own.

I have 8 in total.
Ranging from "Date" to "Take him outside and kill him".
I just love rubber stamping things, it is an accountant thing, we have control and authority as we are the ones that Approve, Hold and Deny.

In the control room on the Bravo, there is a rubber stamp with "F*** It" been there for years, nobody knows its origin.

I want one!

I'll maybe acquire it before I leave there this trip.
I could use some management speak of "it is offensive".

I use the glaciation method of paperwork:
Pile all new paperwork on top of the existing stuff. Eventually the pressure from the top will cause the stuff at the bottom to move outwards towards the edges of the desk, sometimes deflected by other items, such as monitor, tea mug etc.
Eventually, paper-bergs will calve from the main body and drop to the carpet. During the night the cleaners will shepherd these bergs into the nearest circular storage unit (i.e. bin) - at which point the paperwork is no longer relevant and can be forgotten about

I have a 10 day pile.
Stuff I deem as 'Not Urgent' goes into the 10 day pile.
If after 10 Days nobody has asked for it, it get filed in the round filing cabinet.

I wish I could make my desk look like that!
Our parent company comes around at least twice a year to do data security inspections so we are encouraged / enforced to keep a clear desk policy at the end of each day.

My work desk has only a phone (which never gets used), two monitors, a mouse, a keyboard, and a tower on it. If I'm there, my laptop bag is also there, along with a can of soda. It's very clean, but people have made comments about the fact that I haven't personalized it in any way (I don't have anything to personalize it with, I don't have photos and anything else I'd want to decorate it with is already being used to clutter my room at home, which is much higher priority).
My home desk on the other hand...well the desk only exists in theory, I haven't seen it since I moved in a little over a year ago...
