Whats on your work desk?

[PureStang]

I recently got a job (graduated in December), and while sitting at my desk today, I realized my desk is extremely empty. It is a 6'x6' corner type desk. All I have are:

• Laptop and External Monitor
• File holders
• Paper Bins (for inbox/outbox type usage)
• Pen/Pencil holder
• Telephone and iPhone Dock

All of this is located on the left to middle of my desk, the 4 feet to my right is completely bare. Mind you, i like to keep my desk clean and organize, but my desk now is the equivalent of a person with an eating disorder...

So what do you all have on your desks at work?

Just wait until I get a picture in the morning...

I have my computer, phone, Edelbrock catalog, Russell catalog, carb owners manual, yellow notepad, section of Edelbrock SBF E-Street cylinder head, Victor 4.6 fuel rail, 650cfm Thunder Series carb, ProFlo 2 EFI harness and CalMod, assortment of other catalogs.

All the Edelbrock stuff because I'm an Edelbrock employee

a photoshopped picture of a big boot protruding from my bosses ass. its one of those digital picture frames, that with the flip of a button you can change the picture. it's my motivation to finish a job, when I'm feeling like a slacker and don't want to be at work.

1) Crappy Mac PowerPC circa early/mid 00's running fisher price OS because our company lacks any realistic IT department (and hiring any real IT person will mean the owners hearing what they dont want to hear, and that being their precious mac's are absolute garbage). Getting a real PC and Win7 soon enough, the software were trying to implement that will help tremendously from quoting to shipping doesnt run on FisherPriceOSX, go figure. Sad part, is I still have one of the faster mac's in the office.
2) LCD Monitor
3) Bunch of pricing guides and binders ive put together to streamline bidding
4) couple bids waiting approval ($100k+ jobs)
5) Some other shit needing investigation/research into
6) Material samples (veneer, butcherblock, HPL/Laminate, etc)
7) Folder rack with a few important bids/items needing cross referencing.

 

[ford_racer]

Tachometer, speedometer, fuel level guage, oil pressure gauge, coolant temperature gauge, AM/FM radio (no damn tape player), heater/ac stuffs.

 

[Ironhand]

Way too much. I have to clean it off badly.

 

[NC85]

Computer, office phone that I never use, couple Pandrol clips, piece of rail, maybe a spike or two, and a calender.

GT500 Hot Wheels is the important item that I'm often times seen playing with doing rolling burnouts on the desk

 

[VirtualSVT]

I'll throw up a pic tomorrow lol. Easier to show than describe.

I hear ya on the outdated software and such. Luckily I have a brand new computer with windows 7, but our order processing program seriously looks like it was built for MSDOS. Cant even use the mouse. AND if someone is making an inquiry, it slows the entire system down. Our IT department is all of 3 guys.

[Misquamarauder]

Basically, a disaster to the untrained eye, but a goldmine of data and information in a somewhat un-conventional sorting system to me.

 

[Jack Burton]

Laptop, monitor, calculator, portable scanner, and a crappy IRS notice that I don't feel like working on

other things on my desk:
laptop

upcoming bid schedule list
in/out organizer
stapler(broken)
