I am just glad to see the Hawkeye scarf on the back of your door! Hope you are settling okay there.

My office number encourages better boundaries:
Error 111, ‘Connection refused.’

After some searching I discovered that my own office’s error would be “736 - The remote computer terminated the control protocol.” I hope this doesn’t bode poorly for my chances at tenure (from what I understand, this office’s track record in that regard isn’t great).

I’m in Sarah’s old office now, off in the corner. Much better. Being located right in between the office and the bathroom, as I was, has its disadvantages.

My own office number encourages non-urgency.

Are you in a new, swankier, office, Kieran? I never knew if having a spot right there next to the main office was like living steps away from your favorite restaurant or more like getting a table right next to the irritating kitchen door.

For several years I had the best ever office number & nameplate, at least for the purposes of my website.

I agree a little art is in order. What are the little blocks of color on the bookshelves?

I have no sympathy for you and your name plate as mine is permanently crooked. Ask yourself which is worse. I don’t have my camera here today, but will one day take a picture of it to send to you. I did take these pictures of my own office not too long ago.

@1 - I hadn’t thought of that, but it is basically the right color. It’s not, incidentally, the color I chose. The color I chose was going to have this whole soothing maritime vibe. The color I got has a 9-year-old-boy’s bedroom vibe.

@2 - Dartboard? I already have my collection of Magic 8 Balls for this purpose! (All along the top of the three bookcases in the leftmost photo in my post.)
