" If your desk decorations mostly consist of the remnants of your sad desk salad plus or minus the crumpled receipts you&amp;#039;re saving for your next expense report, maybe it&amp;#039;s high time you feng shui-d your desk into a zen oasis rather than a hotbed for your Monday blues. Ahead, we&amp;#039;ve brainstormed a few simple upgrades (most are available on an assistant&amp;#039;s budget) to maximize your space and gussy up your desk like a real boss. Exhibit A. The Letter Holder  As any person with more paper than he/she knows what to do with recognizes, the letter holders are the real MVPs in any cubicle.
