My second home

I never realized how much I value my own space at work until this week. One of my coworkers is out of work on medical leave. I am helping to cover her people while she is gone, but because she covers the company president, I need to sit at her desk when he is in the office so that I'm readily available. I don't really mind sitting at her desk. We all work on laptops, so I can just shimmy on over there with my laptop in tow. I worked from her desk yesterday since the president was here, but today and tomorrow he will be out of the office. I came back to my desk this morning, and I realized how much I missed sitting in my own space. Mainly for these reasons:

  • My pictures of my furry and human family are here to greet me
  • My iPhone speaker is at this desk so I can listen to Pandora throughout the day
  • I know my own organization system
  • I know where all my supplies are
  • I use lamps instead of the fluorescent lighting because it's a much nicer setting
I guess the main thing is that when I'm at work, my desk is my home. I didn't realize just how comfortable I had gotten here and how much I like my own little space.
