The Programmer's Bill of Rights

Having started my new job the first thing I did was sort out my work station arrangements. I had inherited a pretty decent P4 Dell PC, not bleeding edge but certainly fast enough. But it had only a single 19" TFT, so on my first day I cheekily requested a second screen and to their credit they said yes! This was a set up I adopted at my last employer and had found it such a boost to productivity (I am not sure they thought so, but that is another story!)

Browsing around the web today (it is raining, thundering etc outside) and I found this entry, posted a few years ago on the Coding Horror Blog, it is a non-serious bill or rights for programmers - multiple screens, fast computers, choice of keyboard and mice, comfy chair and quiet environment. Pity I didn't find it when I was in my last job! :-)
