The Clean Desk Policy was very strict. Except for a screen, a keyboard,
a mouse and a phone, nothing was allowed after working hours. It meant
you had to re-create your own junk every morning and clean it up before
leaving. The bright idea (for which managers are sometimes known) behind
the concept was that a "cluttered desk revealed a cluttered mind" etc
etc. I suspect that the ideal was a permanently pristine desk during
working hours.
Ah, but you know all that I am sure.
