Piece Mess
This idiom has been circulating around office workplaces since the dawn of clutter; as the tidy elite cast their judgments over the 'organized chaos' of office mess harbourers. So what exactly does it mean? The phrase refers to the claim by the 'superior' tidy people, that their organization provides them in good stead for the working day, that tidiness prevails when it comes to productivity, allowing them to think straight, work efficiently and basically run rings around those workers with desks piled high with disorganized mounds of papers and rubbish.
Deskitis -- As it has come to be known refers to the mantra of the clutterers: 'Dump Everything Seldom Keep It Tidy' and is a problem said to be affecting more and more workplaces...
The Verdict
So does a tidy desk really = a tidy mind? I put on my intrepid reporter hat and went to find out. After much stealthy detective work around the office I finally found my subject: A serial mess junkie with an overdue date with a recycling bin. Here's what he had to say about his mess-making and its effect on productivity...
Me: Hi there, I can't help but notice the spectacular array of objects on your desk; it truly is an amazing feat, if you don't mind me saying.
Subject A: I don't know what you mean?! (The caginess and his frowny demeanor suggests that he is in one of the more advanced stages of deskitis, the defensive, protective-over-the-mess stage; this means it may be too late to save him...)
Me: I am conducting an office survey about the workplace and whether you are satisfied with your surroundings. Would you say that you can happily exist in the chaotic environment you have created from all of your rubbish, papers etc?
Subject A: Look, I don't know what you are getting at here, my desk isn't that untidy, there's only one piece of rubbish which was created about half an hour ago.
Me: Have you ever heard the phrase 'A cluttered desk is a cluttered mind?'
Subject A: Alright, that's it, I'm trying to work and now you're insulting my intelligence because I have a few wrappers on my desk?? And anyway an empty desk surely equals an empty mind. (The subject is beginning to become irate by my line of questioning; he clearly feels threatened by my tidy vibes...)
Me: Hmm that is an interesting twist on the old idiom, however incorrect. Would you mind if I tidied your desk up for you at lunch time? It wouldn't take me very long...
Subject A: Ok that's it... Are you serious? Sarah, I think you have a problem... (He's starting to get up, I think that's my cue to leg it...)
So there you have it, the scary world of the infected. But never fear, it isn't too late to stop deskitis in its tracks!
Top Tips for a tidy desk
1) Ditch the paper scraps! -- If you constantly find yourself scribbling notes on bits of paper, which you then later lose, or have so many different doodled-on post its and paper scraps that you cannot function- put down the pen! Invest in a notepad to keep all of your notes nice and organized in one place. Mine has a monster on the front with googly eyes- it's great!
2) Too much paperwork. If you find yourself drowning under a mountain of papers on your desk, then this probably makes it tough to find what you are looking for. Find out who looks after the office supplies and request a folder or desk tidy- or if you have these things already, use them! Take the time to see what needs filing; what needs binning; what still needs your attention, so that you can be sure that nothing is being overlooked because you've lost it in some mound somewhere.
3) What a load of rubbish. If you look at your desk and see empty coke cans, 7 dirty mugs, and that Kit Kat wrapper from last week, then don't fret! There is still hope. Some clever person invented a bin that allows you to store all of your unwanted rubbish, which gets magically taken away by bin fairies. Pretty neat huh?
NEWSFLASH: DESKITIS has been known to spread from workers to jobseekers: you too, could be at risk!
So what can you do, before the clutter takes hold?!
1) Organize your workspace so you have a clear, tidy area to work in.
2) Make sure that if you have printed copies of your CV that they are all filed somewhere safe and that they are not dog-eared or crumpled.
3) Use a notepad to write down any addresses, company names, or information you need for job interviews.
4) Have a calendar handy so that you can mark on it the dates of any interviews, job application hand in dates, etc, so that you don't miss any important deadlines.
5) When job searching online, many jobs websites give you the opportunity to save your favorite jobs to a shortlist, that way they are all in one place for you to view and apply for whenever you get the time. So your computer can be super organized too!

I need help choosing my first piece of equipment for beats please?
Can somebody give me some ideas of a set up to start up with, for example whats one piece that would be good to buy and mess around with other than programs like fruity loops and how should i go about building on to my equipment? like should i get something like the akai mpk 49, or should i just get something like the korg EXS/EMX-1, or a synth. For hip hop by the way, thanks
I WOULD GET THE ROLAND FANTON X6. YOU COULD DO EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO DO WITH IT. YOU COULD EVEN RECORD VOCALS ON IT IF YOU WANT.
