What does your office space say about you?
-
If you or your colleague's office space is:
Distinctive, unconventional, stylish, surrounded by a variety of books, you/they are open to new experiences.
Warm temperature, well decorated, you/they are extroverted
Clean & tidy, uncluttered with books or similar subjects, you/they are conscientious
Formal, undecorated, you/they are emotionally stable.
Mine's a combination of #3 & 4 - partly becos I have no intention of staying here for longer than a year & don't wish to bring as many personal things as I'd like to - hence undecorated room.
-
mine is none of the above......

wow. that makes me resistant to change, 'cool' and bochaup and a emotional time-bomb. -

Mine is what I like to think of as 'Organized Chaos'
Haha. It is covered by files and papers and samples and a weighing scale. No pc as it is on another desk 
Other desk is piled with paper and files as well.
I think I need 2 bulldozers -

I had personal effects like two photos frames, a glass vase of money plant with multi-coloured plastic stones inside, a tiny porcelain vase of tiny silk rosettes, a display of tiny dog figurines that came free with packs of sweets that I bought, a nice jug for my water needs, and a Diskman with small portable speakers that came out after the official work hour ends and I'm on OT. Small gifts of display items from my boss / colleagues were also displayed in a corner.
I had quite a large cubicle with two cupboards, two shelves, and two sets of drawers and I was the 'guardian' of the personnel file cabinets located right beside my cubicle.
Hmm... guess mine is a combination of #2 and #3.
Sigh... I miss my cubicle!
