View from my office. What does everyone else do all day?

[Tom Geiger]

The view from my office window... my kitchen table. I work from home 3-5 days a week, a fairly virtual worker communicating via email, phone and Live computer meetings with manufacturing facilities around the world. There's no reason for me to go my assigned company property since my boss is the only person I work with there. We get together to collaborate the 1-2 days a week in person. My day can start with calls to Europe as early as 6am, calls to US facilities during the day and sometimes meeting with Asia after 8pm.

Sharp eyes will have already spotted the deer in the above photo. She sits under that bush maybe 2 days I week that I notice.

This was my office for two months or so,... Now it's someone's bar and rec. room...

I think it finished up real nice!

Still don't like the window above the fridge tho...

Oh well got paid and on to the next one

Cheers

I work in field sales and my view usually changes everyday, so I can say that I am lucky to have escaped the office life and same 4 cubicle walls 18 years ago.

I am liking these views guys. I just finished up another day so 67 hrs this week in my office. It's fun when the dirt pays but I hit a rocky ridge and my job sucks

view from my office, changes all the time

On my latest project, I'm under seven tower cranes. They were on limited duty last night though due to high winds. We've been trying to figure out what you guys do when nature calls!

Here's a view on the daily commute.

Yes this is a picture from my phone, not a publicity shot.

my 'office' view,

this view doesn't change much, but the cars in and out change quite often.

I used to have a very similar view, with a significantly smaller toolbox. I miss it about 4 out of every 5 days at my current job.

This isn't necessarily a view from my office, since I don't have one, and rarely stay in the same place long, but for the past 7 weeks, I've been looking at this:

and these:

[webestang]

I've been a photographer and worked in photo labs since 1985. Currently I work for a company called Schiller's Camera. My title here is Photographic Restoration Artist. I also run a black-n-white darkroom out of my house. Yes people (including me) still shoot film. My office or desk is in the lab.

Here is an example of my work......

[chunkypeanutbutter]

I use film, too. When I can, that is.

[Harry P.]

Film? Why? Nostalgia?

[chunkypeanutbutter]

No, it's just more skill-requiring. Getting the right aperture and angle, lighting... It's fun. Its a skill. It's an art.

Much like a certain hobby we might know...

Yep...........all my final darkroom prints (color or BW) are one-offs due to the manipulation during printing.

[Harry P.]

I took photo courses in college, B/W and color. 35mm, 2-1/4, and 4x5 with a view camera. What a monster that thing was, lugging it all over the place! Did all our own film developing and all our own printing in all formats.

Now that digital photography has taken its place, I can't say I miss the old way! No more endless hours in the darkroom developing film, then more endless hours in the darkroom making prints. So much easier now. I never run out of film, and Photoshop is my "darkroom."

But I do understand that doing it the old way can be a hobby unto itself. It does take skill. But I mainly remember it as a PITA!

Wow!! G is gonna love these. Great work, Ben.

[Wonderbread Kustomz]

My view is usually in the living room or bedroom when I'm not glued to my iPad or laptop... I'm disabled so I just keep myself busy collecting vintage hot wheels or relaxing with my prescribed medicine...

Thanks G.............! I've done many of retouch of these old pano photos. It's a fun job, my favorite thing about it is hearing all the back stories of these old photos.

[Agent G]

Here's one for you then.

1920 Gypsy Tour, the setting is Forest Park. That's my grandparents on Papa's 1919 Harley Davidson J model.

[webestang]

Amazing photo! St. Louis had so many motorcyclist back then........would have to loved to lived in that time period.

[Agent G]

It was quite the city at the turn of the century.

Motorcycles were considered a prime form of transportation then. Autos still hadn't quite caught on with the masses although by the 20's old Henry had done quite a lot to change that.

My office lately has mostly been the '47 Caddy in the foreground, getting a full build with an LS-1, 4L80E, AC, and power everything. This is the view from there...

The View in my Office changes often this was last weeks.
