Re: messy people
I work for an accountant whose office and desk give me palpitations. And I’m not even an inordinately organized person! But the man is a tax genius and based on the fact that his firm has been around longer than I’ve been alive, I’m guessing nothing truly important has ever gotten lost. I don’t know how he does it.

I had an old boss whose desk was like a bad cartoon–piles of paper, trash, etc. Then one day, I needed a document. She reached into the middle of a 7-inch tall pile of crap and pulled out the exact doc I needed. I almost fainted.
