	Phil's Blogservations Friday, February 27, 2004 Posted by philgomes 3:59 PM Rate My Workspace Rate My Workspace No sooner had I shared my workspace with the world did I receive an IM from my buddy Troy Petersen, PR at Logitech. According to a market research survey sponsored by the company, the average office worker gives their workspace a "C+" grade. According to the CNET article by Ed Frauenheim: In a survey sponsored by computer peripherals company Logitech International, 42 percent of office workers graded their work space design a C. Another 10 percent rated their cubicle or office a D, and 4 percent gave it an F. Only 6 percent gave their space an A. Logitech this week released the results of the study, which surveyed 1,003 U.S. office workers. My favorite part: Seven percent said their desk was a safety hazard, while 6 percent were embarrassed by their space and another 9 percent wouldn't want their mother to see where they work, Logitech said. Well... Since my parents do read my blog, I guess the cat's out of the bag now. Sorry, Mom. While things here may sometimes get untidy around crunch time, it is organized! So, what do you folks think? How would you rate my workspace? Send me an email. Me? I give it a "B." Everything's where I need it, more or less. I guess it would slouch towards "A" territory with a better webcam, newer speakers, a wireless mouse... (That's a hint, Troy!!) Until then... Peace, Prosperity, and Permanent Markers.*8-) | HOME | OBSESSIONS | FAQ | HEROES | CAREER | BLOG | CONTACT Note that the views expressed on this site do not necessarily reflect those of Phil's employer, its business partners, its clients, or anyone or anything that doesn't come from Phil's demented imagination. Hell, to be perfectly honest, even Phil disagrees with what he thinks sometimes. This site has virtually no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Clicking on a link doesn't automatically send a 1/2-cent donation to UNICEF. You can't buy, sell, auction, swap, find a date, win friends, influence people, cross the chasm, or decode the human genome using this site. You won't get free email. You won't win a free video game console. This site will not end world hunger, foster peace in the Middle East, help you smell better, teach you how to swing dance, or move the global economy from petroleum to hydrogen fuels. You'll learn a lot about this site's master, though, which amounts to a haphazard collection of strange and useless facts that pretty much won't help you at all.
