    What are you using for writer workstations? A service counter or a desk or the combo of both. What do you prefer? Your writer?

    I have a combination counter/desk. It seems to be working out well for the last 3-4 years as it gives a “shelf” to put the customers RO while we’re reviewing repairs but it also helps hide other customer information that I may be working on on my desk.

    I use a service desk I picked up at the auction when Penske left K-Mart. Paid $25.00 for it and it’s a good looking unit. Its red and gray laminate cannot be changed so I painted the reception area to match. It’s 10ft wide with room for two writers. The customer side is 48″ tall with a 1′ wide desk top which hides all my clutter at the 36″ level with a 2′ desk top. It wraps back 2′ at each end to give a defined user space (a big ‘bubble’) It tends to be a little tall for some people, but I just have them stem around to one of the ends at the 36″ level to take care of business.

    I’d post a picture, but then I’d have to clean it first ;-)
