You can learn quite a bit by looking in someone's desk drawers.

I have learned that you obviously have not personalized your space. Now the question is why? Are you afraid of committment? Are you hiding something from everyone?

ponderous........hhhmmmmm......

All sorts of junk and about $20 in change. When I come back from lunch (if I had cash and used it!) I throw the change in my drawer. It has accumulated nicely! Also a toothbrush, gum, chapstick and an assortment of wonderful "gifts" (pens, pencils, pins, picture frames, etc.) for my years of bank service.

The most interesting thing I have in my desk is a plastic toy gun. Back when I was a teller, we always said after dealing with a not-so-bright customer (after said customer left the building) "Get the gun!" So when one of our college students left after working all summer, she gave me this gun. It has traveled with me from branch to branch, desk to desk for about 10 years now.

The only other remotely interesting thing I have in there is a few poker chips.

FINALLY ABOVE the gnat line
Well lets see - other than the usual office supplies ( which includes highlighters in every color available) - tea bags, stress ball, tums, suckers, name tags, passwords (oops - did I type that out loud?) a Bible, poetry, pictures my daughter drew for me.....

Who's Bubbles?

In my desk - nothing much of interest besides files, a couple of cans of soup, a spoon, hand lotion and a sewing kit.

On my desk - numerous pictures, a coffee cup that says "I'm tired and I want a Cookie", a stuffed sheltie <I have a sheltie>, a stuffed lamb, and a sign my brother made for me many years ago that says "Money Laundred Here - Member FDIC".
