A huge mess?

Or is everything "parallel and perpendicular"?

I like to refer to it as an organized mess. Besides, my boss thinks I am sooo overwhelmed with work when I leave it messy. Thank heaven I can always find what she asks me for.

i had a friend who got so bad you couldn't get in through the door without climbing gear!!

a friend (very organized person) had an extremely tidy desk always...
but, the boss would still ask them to run a contrived errand and when they got back to their desk, everything would be magically arranged exactly parallel and perpendicular!

Hell, I colour code the mr freezies in my freezer. Of course my desk is organized, neat, tidy and free of any unnecessary clutter.

I am the most anal-retentive person I know with regards to organization.

If my boss ever called from home looking for any one piece of information, I most definitely could direct them on where to find it, based on cupboards, drawers, filing cabinets, shelves, etc.

Of COURSE they are alphabetical on a shelf. Is there any other way to organize them? laugh

I don't have a large enough library of them otherwise I would group them in categories too!

oh for large collections, a numbered database with searchable actors, artists, genre, and personal rating is just sooooo helpful!

you can sort them all and print out sorted guides for browsing!!
