    Shoes (5 ors at the moment), water bottles and my beloved quill pen. It gets locked in my desk at night. People have sticky fingers when it comes to great pens.

    Absolutely nothing, I'm at my desk maybe one week a month and I usaully have plenty of time to clean when I am there.

    However I just moved desks and the person before me was a huge harder of office supplies, notably hanging folders. So until I find a better place for them, I have about 50 in one drawer and then 3 unopened boxes of folders in another. I believe there was also a ton of pens in the drawers.

    I used to have to take my good mechanical pencils home with me. They are like gold in some engineering offices.

    Toys from video games.
    I seriously have a treasure chest of little Mario themed action figures, and a stuffed Little Big Planet sackboy sitting on top of my desk.
    ...oh, and a coffee mug full of dirty spoons.

    colored paper clips. Not sure why I like them but they are more fun then the plain paper clips. and pens I hate having a pen that doesn't write very well. I buy my own pens and get really irritated when someone walks off with it. I hunt them down and get it back!

    TONS of pens, markers/sharpies, brightly colored Post-Its, White Out, paper clips. And lots of dust, no matter how much I try to clean I just find more. I should get some more Lysol wipes and go to town one day! :smile:

    I definitely have a lot of paper clips that are all contained. I hoard larabars! I have a bunch of them so I can reach for an easy snack in the afternoon. There are probably at least 3 liquid containers at any one time on my desk. Lots of post-its!

    Journal articles (read, to be read, reading) and diet pop cans (currently sitting at 14, every once in a while I get sick of knocking them over and bring them to recycling). I'm the lab slob.

    I work on a hospital floor, so I don't have a desk, but I hoard (in my locker) dry erase markers like they're cigarettes in a prison. That **** can buy you favors on my floor...


    LOL!!! That's awesome. It's like me - I work in a police station and the White Out handheld dispensers are like crack, I just can't have enough. And when the officers take mine, I freak out!

    Phones. Every cordless phone handset ends up on my desk, eventually.

    And legos. They appear regularly. Must be the three boys I have.
