- tjoff 3y agoNot even a permanent drawer?
- pluijzer 3y agoI worked at companies that had 'clean desk' policies. No desk, no drawer, no nothing for questionable benefit (it was touted as a security policy).
- midoridensha 3y agoI can't imagine working at a place like this for one day longer than I really had to, before finding a better job.
- pluijzer 3y agoThat is what I did. I took the job as a knee-jerk reaction from losing projects because or covid as a freelancer. I think it has to do with the ISO security certification. It brings lots of little nuisances.

- JohnFen 3y agoThe ones that I've worked at still allowed you to keep your things in a locked drawer. I'm surprised to hear there are places that don't even allow that much.
