    Work with an engineer who looked at my desk and said "a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind" I looked at his barren desk and asked "so an empty desk is a sign of what?"

      I have the same stuff as you do on my desk, except that it's buried by other stuff piled on top of it.

                            I think I have a desk somewhere. When I find it I'll let you know what's on it...

                              I once said, "A clean desk is the sign of not enough work to do". We had hired a new COO who happened to be a big advocate for "lean" and he said he disagreed. Yet, in the years to come, despite him saying "we should do lean" and talking about putting shadow boards in the workshop I cannot think of one single thing he ever achieved. So much for lean.

                                Was checking your list of items on your desk. Are you sure you didn't forgot to mention your boots and an obese tomcat? Maybe some spare motorcycle parts as well? :laugh:
