Some companies have a "clean desk" policy.
Quite why this should be remains entirely obscure, but nonetheless such irrational regimes exist.
A simple way for anally-retentive managers to enforce the Führer Direktiv is to equip the office with the BorgCo Tipping Desk.
A small portion of the desk,
at the back, is fixed, and supports a moinitor or monitors, a phone, and a coffee mug.
The greater part of the surface is hinged along the front edge.
At midnight, the front portion of the desk slowly rises to a vertical position, tipping everything off into an untidy mess on the floor. Then it returns to horizontal.
The next morning, the offender has the tedious task of picking up and re-arranging their stuff. Easier to put it back in the drawers ...
Can also be used for headbanging

// the front portion of the desk slowly rises to a vertical position, tipping everything off into an untidy mess on the floor.// Shirley this would just tip everything onto the fixed back-part of the desk? |

That has now been clarified. |

Which would help you see what was up there if you were hiding underneath the desk. But would also make the desk less good for hiding underneath. |

//Easier to put it back in the drawers// Easier still to sit on the floor and work. |

um...(pushes things off) into a wastebasket?
or how about a mini desk roomba that pushes things off into appropriate mini recycle containers? |

title. |

Wouldn't a person, just before leaving for home, pull out all their draws and file folders and arrange them on the floor in a Rube-esque way. |
|
| |
The magic of consequence will again surprise tomorrow. |

If you only tip the standard 15 to 20%, most of the stuff will still be there in the morning for the waiter to deal with. |
