Office disaster area

Tired of feeling utterly filthy about the state of my office at work, I took a few minutes to tidy up my workspace. I've noticed recently that everyone around me is really clean and organized. When I look around my office, I see junk. Everywhere. So I began unearthing the pile of papers that spill across my desktop and found items I hadn't seen in years: a 2001 company wall calendar, a 2002 benifits booklet, and loose papers from every year after. And what shocked me was the ridiculous amount of loose paper clips strewn amongst them. Dust covered the vast majority of the desk I never sit at. And I'm not talking about a thin layer. We're talking dust bunnies.

See, part of the mess just isn't my fault. Being in a wheelchair, I can't reach certain areas like the back portion of my unused desk and the taller shelves. And that's why that yellow gummy bear has been under my desk since last year. But I take full responsibity for the paper clutter and used coffee mugs. Now that I'm spending more time at work, I must resolve to live a more organized office life and save my clutter for my desk at home. (Which I've already got a big jump on.)
