      @stuartjordan if you were being serious and not asking about the coffee... It's Lubuntu 21.04.

        Not overly impressed with my current desk - but there is only so much I can do with it. Small sized desk and riser,.. in a shared office.

        Two ViewSonic 27" monitors and
        gasp
        a Lenovo laptop.

        Researching a Sit-Stand desk to replace the riser...

            Didn't NTG start like in the 90's?

              Yup. Why?

                John was hired in 2000 when the company was young. Was just the three founders before him.

                Our first office was Rochester, then Pittsburgh, then Ithaca.

                That was all in about three years. Geneseo opened as our first big office in 2003.

                  Well employee #1 sounded like it just started around 2006.

                    the owners aren't typically looked at as employees.. but I definitely see where you're coming from.

                      Why? He wasn't hired then. He'd been around for years. Just because he's the first doesn't mean he was only there a week.

                        Correct. Owners aren't employees. And employees are often around for a really long time.

                          LOL - this whole thing ran afoul of human shortcuts... There was an assumption that this picture was from shortly after he was hired, though you said nothing of the sort. Calling out the fact that he was employee number 1 lead people to that conclusion, right or wrong, I'm willing to bet it would happen more often than not.

                            Yeah I agree with Scott here, an employee is someone you hired after the business is in place, not a founder etc.

                              That has nothing to do with what @Dashrender said.

                                    Such a neat looking desk. I'm too ashamed of the disaster area of mine to actually post anything.

                                      I'm trying to make it a habit to keep it clean. It's tough though.

                                        @dafyre same here. Mine looks like random storage unit contents exploded all over it.

                                        Only interesting things on it are:

                                        • at least 6 spinning rust HDDs
                                        • 2 of the same guitar pedal, both in boxes (IT isn't the only place where spares are a good plan)
                                        • 2 GoPros
                                        • 2 unopened Amazon packages

                                          Mine is mostly trash and things that I need to take some time to clean up and put away, but I keep getting sidetracked by work and just have to carry things to the trahs every time I get up.

                                          I have a 5 port 100 meg switch, and old ipad, a small laptop that isn't used, a regular sized laptop that is used (runs MX Linux at the moment) and a resting board for my keyboard & mouse.

                                          Like I said... disaster area.
