This Is Not My Desk,

RELATED CONTENT

Web site review by Sara Buckwitz, NotMyDesk.com
For anyone who does temp work, here's a site to make the experience a little less drab. Christopher Livingston, the man behind the Not My Desk, writes a regular column about his life and the diversions he finds to keep himself (mostly) sane. On Monday, he wrote about how he misses taking ferries to work, because 'it's such a civilized way to commute.' The site features various essays on the travails of temp life, three diversionary Web sites and a space for networking with fellow temp workers. If you're looking to kill some time, or buy a nose-shaped pencil sharpener, check out the review of Office Playground; it highlights all kinds of fun desk toys.
