Depends on whether you feel oppressed by clutter, innit.

I feel the semblance of order (or indeed, actual order) is a help for my troubled mind.

Horses for courses.

Some people can only cope with the absolute meaninglessness of life by attempting to exert a frail sense of order on something utterly inconsequential.

It’s alright, he only gets inconsequential emails.

I aim for inbox zero, my inbox only features emails I need to do something about. Once I’ve replied or delivered the job or whatever then I archive it. I use it a bit like a to-do list I suppose.

Time for a ruthlessly efficient tea break, I reckon.

Embarrassingly, I’d been pissing around on DiS for about half an hour when one of my colleagues piped up “are the servers still down?” “Erm… yep? Let me just check…”

I hadn’t even noticed.

this is a great opportunity for you to tut and shake your head in frustration regularly to indicate your frustration at how you are missing out on ruthless efficiency due to the servers being down

“Yeah boss, I’m wondering whether it might work better remotely?”
