Mine is blank and grey as an Irish winter sky, because we arent allowed to have that sort of stuff. We're not even allowed change our screen savers.

I do however enjoy decorating other peoples cublicles. Just little things like writing "BOOBS!" in 14 inch high letters with black permanent markers on their monitors.

sh1t where are you working in gestapo headquarters

Only when I stand up too fast or if I don't quite make it.....

I used to have some inert collectors shells displayed at my desk.
Had 30mm shells from an A10-Warthog plane, 40mm AA shells and various others until some American visitor got alarmed! and gave me a lecture about if I worked in the USA I could be fired if someone saw them and got offended or scared! (and this was going from someone who was in the National Guard)

I had a video up last year on boards of my cubicle after a few people asked me to show em what it looked like but again.....some dry balls in work found out and recommended I take it down in case I got in trouble with some anal ****wits that might not take to kindly to it.

I like to keep my private life separate to my work life so I don't display photographs in my office. I have absolutely no objection to anyone else displaying them though.

No problem with people decorating their workspace. But those ****bags with the inspirational wallpapers and crap like that are digusting/pitiful/losers.

I don't decorate my workspace, just a desk piled high with crap

You should probably use the other cubicle for that!

I have a pic of my kids, it reminds me that I can't strangle my boss.

I also have a chess board.

we are not allowed decorate our cubicles in any way. we have adopted the Japenese 5s appraoch in the office. everything has to be black from the computer phone and partitions down to the stapler and paper punchers. No photos allowed. No coats on back of chair allowed. No crimbo decorations. Its crap.

Its awful. and all the sheep in here follow along with managements wishes. I have complained on a few occasions . I had a mini standoff regarding removing my one photo of my daughter. Lasted 2 months before i was quitely told its the picture or disciplinary action. so i became a reluctant sheep too

I get why people would want to decorate their cubicle.

You would generally spend a fair chunk of time there so wanting it to look good is fair enough.

I couldn't be arsed though. I have one picture up in mine and that's more than enough.

I don't work at that kind of desk, but if I did, yeah I'd put a small few things there but very little. Not those quirky slogans though.

A few photos I took & postcards from far off places, that's about it in terms of personal stuff. The real stash is in the third drawer.

Just a copy of the poem Desiderata by Max Ehrmann on the wall, cant help but feeling a bit more calm after reading it. I have few photos in my drawer of gf and stuff.

Surely if theres anything on earth that should be blasted with piss it should be a cubicle

Dont have that style office, but to be honest the decorating the office thing kinda bugs me. My old boss had calandars with inane and never work related appointments on it (dentist/pt meeting/parents association nights etc). There were tweety bird stickers on her computer and a bugs bunny teddy on her desk, aswell as wedding photos of her and hubby plus countless ones of her kids all over the office. I did a fair bit of work in that space aswell and it used to drive me around the bend-grow up ffs.

Keep the pics and stuff in a wallet or if you really need to, carry a photo album in your handbag, just dont force your family life down everyone elses throat. Its just really unprofessional imo.

The odd photo in a drawer or motivational picture/piece of art/relaxing scenic photo is different-fair enough give your cubicle its own stamp,but not a deep insight into your personal life plastered all over your desk.

cluttered desk = cluttered mind....i worked in a company 2 years ago and all the people had pictures of their little 'Oísin' and 'Roisin' so as they struggled on hating their 9-5 job they remembered they got to do it for Oísin and Roisin..who wants to look at that crap. keep a pic on your fone FFS..

I don't have any real decoration, although have a couple of personal effects like perfume and hand cream.
have a small mountain of shoes under my desk too

I was visiting another large office in the IFSC during the week, it's a global company and I'd assumed they were uber professional. The manager of the dept I was in had every spare INCH of her office utterly plastered in either pics of her kids or their "artwork". FFS......
