My Office
Like most offices, my office is a place where I can
concentrate on my work and feel comfortable at the same time. Of course, I have
all the necessary equipment on my desk. I have the telephone next to the fax
machine on the right side of my desk. My computer is in the center of my desk
with the monitor directly in front of me. I have a comfortable office chair to
sit on and some pictures of my family between the computer and the telephone.
In order to help me read, I also have a lamp near my computer which I use in
the evening if I work late. There is plenty of paper in one of the cabinet
drawers. There are also staples and a stapler, paper clips, highlighters, pens
and erasers in the other drawer. I like to use highlighters to remember
important information. In the room, there is a comfortable armchair and a sofa
to sit on. I also have a low table in front of the sofa on which there are some
industry magazines.
