Office Decorations

At my office it's tantamount to decorate one's office. Here you are allowed to express yourself so long as you don't offend someone (i.e. sexually harrass, dicriminate)

I have a picture of the wife and a map of the world that's a bit dated since it has some countries that no longer exist and some that now exist... but am trying to figure out jus what I'm going to do to decorate.

I'm going to have a TV, stereo, VCR, and a coffee table with sitting area. It's great to watch TV at work.

What do you have in your cubicle/office?

work, tech and Internet-related posters and lots of plants.

I also take 2 break walks a day and pick things up I find interesting. These are situated in many places around my office.
There's a lot of broken toys, car parts, and natural things like leaves, pine cones, acorns, feathers, etc.

I have the office Hockey Pool, and the Playoff schedules attached to my cubicle wall. Other than that, my cubicle is a very boring place to be.

The cubicle next to me, however, is a completely different story. She moved in last week, and I swear she brought the entire rainforest with her. There are plants everywhere. There are also several pictures of her kids, along with their drawings. It's almost like her little home away from home.

Oops. A tiger just came out of her jungle. Gotta go.

I don't have an office, but if I did, it would have a few things.

A cactus
A zen garden
My collection of monitor pets
The statue of a knight wearing the rose I had pinned to my tux at senior prom
Model cars (just a few)
A stereo
If I had a big office, foosball (I think a pool table would be a bit much)
Various shrunken heads

I have a bulletin board with all kinds of notes, memo's, spec sheets, phone numbers etc etc etc.

I also have a small radio which is perpetually tuned to talk radio, and an abstract art picture on the wall.

I did have a bikini calendar last year, but I kept forgetting to buy a new one

My boss would always walk in and look at my calender, he loved it.

Occasionally, I'll come in and find a few dildos on my desk... the funny part is I dont notice them until I've been sitting for a while.

*sigh*

I always wanted some sort of little office or cubicle space to call my own. After 11 years in the cup factory, all I had was a 2x4x3 tool cart.
Painted it up all pretty a couple times, but then somebody would notice, and I'd have to paint it back solid. Finally gave up any efforts at decoration. Feh.

I did have a nice picture of Hanson under plexi on the front, though, just to keep people guessing...

a picture frame, a plant, a computer, and two pieces of art that came with the office. I am a minimalist at work - I'm there to work - not be comfy (or make pals.)
