I work in an office – 9-5, water coolers, the whole bit. I put numbers in boxes and I write reports evaluating progress. I try to encourage other people to put their numbers in their boxes and to write their reports. I give all of the reports to someone else who then uses them to ask for money. Occasionally I have to be the one to ask for the money. It's not the most exciting workplace, but just because my environment's dull doesn't mean that I'm about to settle for boring outfits. To wit:
The Foreman
[blue on blue…copier]
Blockbuster!
[blue on khaki…laptop, brochures]
Safari Jack
[gray on khaki…printer, stapler]
Captain Of The Academy
[gray on blue…spreadsheet, calendar]
Inspector General
[white on blue…fax machine, minutes binder]
A Most Civil Engineer
[white on khaki…clipboard, calculator, ruler]

I've found that the clipboard is one of the most useful professional accessories available. When carefully combined with a "purposeful walk," the clipboard conveys exactly the message that I want: "Don't talk to me. I'm busy."
