I would move it away from our office busy bodies and chatter boxes.   Our current setup makes it difficult some days when I am working on confidential or project specific matter for my Executive.  There are two individuals that feel the need to get involved in things that they shouldn't.    Also, the chatter box tends to want to talk non stop about her personal life or favorite political candidate without regard to my need to stay focused, even though I have flat told her I cannot visit at that time or even tried ignoring her.  The other individual feels she needs to try to run everything.

I do have a window that adds alot of natural light to my office.  Overall, I would rather have what I have than a cube.  At least with the current set up, I do hear what goes on in my bosses world and it helps me to stay on top of things.

There's nothing I would change.

I am blessed to

a) have my own office (and at the end of the corridor, so no through-traffic)

and

b) it's a corner office so I have two very good-sized windows which let in a lot of daylight and with a high ceiling (it's Victorian-era);

c) it's a good-sized office, too, so even with six filing cabinets, a large desk, a large table, shelves & a stationery cupboard I still have room to swing several big cats;

d) it's right by our little kitchenette which services only two offices.

Well, maybe I could change one thing ... rather bizarrely my boss's office (right next to mine) is the first of the two of us down a corridor so she can act as my gatekeeper sometimes.  So I would like to swap that around so I get to see the visitors first!

I shouldn't have said my office needed nothing done to it, now I have got caught up in the next round of musical offices.  I am moving across the corridor to an office of my own.

From being told at the end of last week that it would be three or more weeks before I move, today it is suddenly all happening!  At least I am around to make sure the carpet gets a thorough clean whilst there is no furniture in there, and various repairs and alterations are made.  There are some bookshelves to be put on the wall, but I shall wait until I have the rest of the furniture in place before I decide which wall to put them on.

Some of the equipment I am responsible for will have to move into the room next door to the office - that will confuse the regular users for a while.

I've found my old door name panel, thank goodness it wasn't one of the ones I have already recycled for somebody else.

All good fun!
