My administrative assistant’s desk is atrocious. It is covered in not just piles of paper, but trash, food items, and all sorts of miscellaneous junk. She is a good employee and appears to get her work done. How would you handle this?
I answer this question — and three others — over at Inc. today, where I’m revisiting letters that have been buried in the archives here from years ago (and sometimes updating/expanding my answers to them). You can read it here .
Other questions I’m answering there today include:

Employees refuse to share a hotel room
My neighbor wants intros in my field, but I don’t think highly of his work
Candidate sent a document of emails praising her work
