Say hello and tell us: what's on your desk?

[Kate Foster]

Hi from Boston.

I have my bag, paper tissues and hot tea (since I have a flue) and my cool colorful calendar. Also, my computer, of course, with Movavi Slideshow running (https://www.movavi.com/photo-to-dvd-slideshow/). Have finals in a few weeks.

hello, this is my messed up desk ;-) 
Hi!! Fulvio

Welcome to the party, @Kate Foster! 🎉

[Erica Moss]

@fulvio That's quite the setup! Welcome. 😎

[Gary Pasquale]

Hello,

I'm Gary based in Norwich, UK.

I've been a Jira & Confluence admin for over 4 years. Recently became an Atlassian Certified Jira Administrator (ACP-JA).

We've grown our Jira instance from around 200 local users to 11,000 + global users in 4 years. Jira really does sell itself!

I won't bore you with a picture of whats on my desk. it's really nothing out of the ordinary. Although the views are pretty special....

[Erica Moss]

@Gary Pasquale Definitely laughed out loud — welcome, Gary!

Hello @Gary Pasquale, which part of Norwich are you from? 

[Gary Pasquale]

Hi @[deleted], I work in the city centre and live by the football ground (which is still pretty central) 

[Thomas Schlegel]

That's what I call a working place :-) - welcome @Gary Pasquale

[Deleted user]

@Gary Pasquale Yes, I know the area well. I lived near Norwich for a time.

Hi everybody,

I'm Damien Lauberton. I fall in love with Atlassian products 10 years ago. I also use JIRA when I go fishing !

My life runs on Jira: an inventory system for carp fishing

I'm working as an Atlassian expert since almost 4 years, in France but also in Europe.

Hope to see some of you at the Atlassian summit in Barcelona next September.

cheers !

[Erica Moss]

We've got a good crew heading to Summit for sure — and we're glad you're here, @Dam - iDalko!

[Dam - iDalko]

thanks :)

Hello everyone, I'm Lisa in Halifax, Canada and I'm pretty comfortable with Confluence. I've been using Confluence as a user for a few years and about 6 months as an administrators.

My desk is super chaotic. Not messy, but I like lots of little knick-knacks and having lots of colour (and washi tape) around. :)

[Lisa Stren]

I guess I should also mention that I am learning a lot about Jira as an administrator right now. (Also very familiar as a user).

[Erica Moss]

Color's always a great move — welcome, @Lisa Stren!

Hi All,

I'm a Brazilian/Spanish Release Manager living and working in Barcelona. 

I will not show what's on my desk, as it's all simple stuff. You can easily picture it. 

I can, instead, say what I wish there were: one black cat, a pot of gold with an elf by the side, 0% calorie-0%fat chocolate that taste the same as milk chocolate.

Hi I'm from Panama this is my desk.

[P_D_ Foerster]

Hi, I'm Patrice from Germany. I work as a system administrator at diva-e Digital Value Excellence GmbH, an IT service provider.

My desk looks rather clean I think :D What's on it? Well, of course the obvious stuff: notebook, keyboard, mouse and extended display and also my headset.

The other things are a picture of me and my wife with my little daughter :) , a kudo card congratulating me to my passed ACP Jira/Confluence Admin, and an NSD powerball. This thing is great to relax your fingers / hands / arms wwhen you type and click all day ;)
This little sheet directly below my display is a Team Playbook Card that want to use with my team in our next review.

In everyday work I'm responsible for our Atlassian apps at work (Jira, Confluence, Crucible) and also consulting my fellow employees regarding usage / best practices.

I am in the community because

• I have been here before (in Confluence Questions & Answers)
• lots of good topics are discussed here
• I can get help/support from other admins/users
• I want to connect to other users :)
• I want so share and help if possible

I wish you all a great friday and weekend  :)

Cheers,
Patrice

Hello World!

[Lisa Stren]

Welcome, Patrice!

[Jesse]

Hi Patrice, 

Nice monitor! My boss has a huge curved one kinda like that. I need to get a third myself. Or maybe just another machine.

Welcome Aboard!


Kind Regards,

ji

[P_D_ Foerster]

Thanks :)
I can recommend this monitor! It's great to work with and if you want you can split the display by using picture in picture with two input signals. We're all getting these monitors now in our company :D

[P_D_ Foerster]

Hi Matt, welcome :)

[Erica Moss]

Loving this intro, @P_D_ Foerster! We're glad to have you.
