Discussion on: Why I like my desk unorganised and messy

I've found I'm pretty OCD when it comes to my desk.

  • I have my keyboard lined up with the grain of the wood so its 100% even on both sides, and sits the exact same distance from the edge all day every day.
  • I have a square pencil holder on the exact corner of the desk.
  • I have a square USB hub on the opposite corner of the desk, again its perfectly aligned with the corner.
  • I have my mouse-pad lined up with the grain of wood, and the edge of the table.
  • I have my monitors exactly arms length away, at eye level. (OCD and ergonomic :D)

There's probably more I haven't noticed, but that is what I have noticed haha.

PS. I have three small desks at home and can only use 1.5 of them due to all the random stuff on them. I might be OCD with my desk at work, but at home I'm just straight up lazy 😂

Interesting!! Why don't you share a pic of your desk setup?

I Do have some random crap on the left-side (crackers) but other than that I'd consider my desk "organized" haha
