My setup is a bit similiar, except that I don't use paper. I just write or draw directly on my desk with a pencil. Most of my notes are only needed for a few minutes and they can be easily erased without any tools.
- koralatov 12y agoI used to do the same with a grease-pencil at my old job, and found it a pretty good method for very fleeting information. It did, however, draw appalled looks from my co-workers, and was ultimately stopped by a new manager who refused to allow it (``This isn't a f---ing primary school, stop drawing on your desk!'')
- pcl 12y agoThat strikes me as incredibly odd. I can't imagine any of the managers I've had over the years forbidding me from doing something like that.
- msl 12y agoI've noticed that a lot of people seem to think there is something fundamentally wrong with it. Some have told me to stop doing it despite having never seen my desk. Whenever I mention it to people (which I seldom do nowadays) I'm told to just write on paper like everybody else. Thus far nobody has been able to explain me what I stand to gain from the switch. Few people seem to accept my justification (I find dealing with pieces of paper inconvinient) for my behavior either.
