I always laugh at these companies that have these rules saying, 'You're only allowed to have this or that on your desk.' It's no fun to work at a place like that.

If your company has a clean-desk policy, the company is nuts and you're nuts to stay there.
It's got to be weird to sit in an office all day and deal with these creative types without having any idea of what they do or how they do it.
It seems to limit you; when you're working in an office, you're a creature in a small cell under somebody's supervision and surveillance.
No one goes into the office for fun. You go, and even if you love it, you're there to work.
I don't like sitting still at a desk and often conduct business on my Blackberry or in walking meetings.
It used to be presumed that if you weren't at your desk working, you weren't working, But we said, 'Why can't we make a workplace where casual meetings are as important as working at your desk?' Sometimes that's where your better creative work happens.
You cannot be in your offices every day doing nothing... and at the end of the day you expect to be paid.
I always look at it that I work with my employees as opposed to them working for me.
I waited tables in New York, and when you're in that line of work, you often have a horrible boss.
We started the company out of frustration with the employer that we had because we were building great stuff and there was no way that this stuff was ever going to get into the hands of the people who could use it.
