That's my WORK office! I don't have pictures of the other half, but there is a meeting table, another book shelf unit, an 8-foot whiteboard, and two more windows behind the camera. Much of the furniture (except the desk) was custom-built for the last president's office, and cast off in less than a year when that president was run out. Note that I changed the room number on the door to pi, because it is irrational for one person to have such a large office when I left behind 5 colleagues who are all cramped into a shared office space about the same square footage.

Let me tell you a funny story about what happens when an IT person gets moved from a cramped shared office suite with tiny desks to the mother-of-all private offices. The other IT people who got moved into even more cramped spaces with even smaller desks get jealous, and they are the ones who do cable management and office setups for the entire organization. Long story short, I had to do my own cable management...funded out of my own pocket...without access to the supply room to grab all of the cables and stuff that I needed to avoid the conflict until things settled down.

The above picture was taken the day that I moved, and I was still trying to figure out how to lay out a huge desk. For a scale, those cables were in raceways with slack to spare in my old desk! I allocated 4 hours to move, and needed to be up and running ASAP to handle emergencies. With no access to the supply room for longer cables and organizers (and a state fire inspector on-site all week looking to write citations for extension cords in offices), I didn't have an option other than stretching the short cords to a floor-standing UPS until I could order the correct cables and raceways. When the stuff came in, I spent the better part of a day teaching an intern about the art of cable management.

It is worth mentioning that my new office passed the state fire inspection with flying colors. Don't ask about the offices of the people who do cable management and office setups for the entire organization. In their defense, the room that they are all crammed into probably needs a 100 amp sub-panel to run the gear for five people per the local electrical code.....

Ah, sorry! I assumed since my home office looks a lot like that if you place a wall on the left. But anyway, I would still insist on a liquor cabinet. Even if you have to custom build it into the existing furniture.

You would be surprised to see that no current IT graduates know what it is or how to read it, even in BCD mode.

Amen!

I gave up a 6' x 8' space in a shared office, with a window seat and this view:





In return, I received a 14' x 20' private corner office, with *five* windows, a meeting table, and an 8-foot whiteboard for planning/sketching. As much as I miss the view, being able to use my speakerphone was enough of a benefit to sacrifice the view.....
