Desk accessories at work

Toys on someones desk are an easy way to identify an idiot.

Photos are nearly as bad. It's a work place, if you can't even remember what your loved one/partner/child/pet looks like while you earn money to support it, well there's no hope for you.

1x Gromit Mug, sometimes with coffee in it.
1x One Barton cored socket A Athlon.
1x One TBird cored socket A Athlon.
1x Paper clip coiled into a spring.
999x Rubber things that SFPs come with to protect the optical parts.
 
Normaly about 5 laptops, a switch (not a desktop one, a proper switch), sometimes an iMac.

Loads of paper and cables.

They're given up on me and house keeping, I've just got a desk stuck in a corner that no one important enough to care ever sees.
 
Clear desk policy, so nothing.

hah we have that, but no one bothers with it. The cleaner has OCD about everything needing to be cleaned and had actually put a complaint in against one of the guys because he can't clean his desk due to all the stuff he has:D
 
Clear desk policy.

During the day I usually only have a packet of biscuits on it (as well as mouse/keyboard, naturally).

Oh, and the biscuits have to be Dark Chocolate Digestives. Accept no substitutes for c# programmer fuel.

I have an 8" plasma ball, hp sauce, colmans mustard, ketchup, and a little nuts and bolts man a grateful ebayer sent with some ray bans I bought. Most played with on my desk though are two pegs and a cocktail twizzler.
 
Cars!

Awesome detailed model of a old Williams F1 Car, the one with sonic's legs on the side, A Evo VI equally detailed, a matt black Lambo GT and a Clio V6.

and then a Storm trooper, and cartoon Darth Vader big head thingy.

Think my Lego technic combine harvester on this desk wins tho!
