What does your desk look like?

The desk looks big, but that's a tiny Chromebook. LOL. It's actually a pretty small desk.
I didn't think about that being your Chromebook. From past desks - I knew that was small. And would be painful for me to use.
Compared to the desk I have now,.. that is a huge difference... But , I built my desk...

I like what you've done with the decor. It has a very minimalist vibe.

@fuznutz04 I like keeping it clean and simple. No distractions.

That's the cubicle area. My private office is just to the right. CEO's door is the one you can just barely see.

Man I really dislike cubicles. I worked in an open floor space (where the center was a work bench) three people in the room on phones was enough to drive someone crazy.

@scottalanmiller So is this a client that you are working on location for?

This is how all of DropBox is... everyone was wearing headphones while working.. talk about disconnected.
And I agree - I dislike cubeland.. I've worked there before, and if I get another job I assume I'll end up there again.

No, I accepted COO of RedLogik, a global logistics firm from the ME.

I think headphone makers invented cubicles to sell noise cancelling headphones.

LOL what would the alternative be? walls? tiny offices?

You can sort of make out our sign on the door. This is the engineering office in Phoenix. I'm here temporarily to get this team squared away.
Closing offices in some other locations. Opening one in Guadalajara. There is a Dallas office already, that's US HQ.

Oh yes, no walls (that's HELL) or tiny private offices are the alternatives.

I am a huge fan of having loads of small, cozy private offices. Not for everyone, but almost everyone. Team assistants maybe not, not receptionists. But even executive assistants need private space.
I've worked in wallless places, you can't do anything.

again, this was DropBox.. there was no private spaces there... from what I could tell they were as close to paperless as one can get.. any paper a person did have, it had to travel anywhere they went.
Conference rooms were scaddered all over the place when you need a semblance of privacy,

We are pretty paperless. Since the team is global, paper is mostly useless.

RedLogik
Oh nice. Congrats!
Thanks. It's nice to be getting out of IT, too. Time for a change of pace.
