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.
