Another in the blog series, "Youth worker offices!" I'd like to claim this is a piece of dedicated social anthropology exploring the commonality and diversities of youth ministry administrative practices, but it's not ... it just amuses me.
This is the office of Paul Reisbach (who is a great youth worker*). In keeping with other offices there is a bin bag in the process of being filled. In terms of tidiness it's average (a five on the Hamilton scale) but I am sure it's the first desk that is equipped with toilet roll and a single red rose!
(I've yet to find a youth worker office without a coffee cup in a prominent position!)
*Paul asked me to say this
Our youth office is tidy! Only because we cleaned it yesterday, before that it was a question of climbing over the random piles of new-stuff-for-the-youth-club. Personally, I've decided that it's the youth that make the mess, ban them and it would stay clean (honest!)
this person not only has a cup of coffee on their desk, but what looks like a coffee machine...!!
