International Take a Picture Under Your Desk Day

Did you not mark your calendars? Shame, shame. Let's not leave +Jo Lane hanging. She's kinda the inspiration and founder and, little known fact about Jo, the "AL" in "International". Add a link to your pic in the comments. And, mind your noggin.

Already home in your time zone? Kitchen table or coffee table will suffice.

It's Friday. You aren't really working anyway.

  20. Scott Cramer says:

    +matthew rappaport Just cuz. He might still be under his desk so this could be easy. 😉

  21. Keith Cramer says:

    Add +Daniel Börresen to your list! He's under his desk now.  You can come out now Daniel!

  22. Scott Cramer says:

    Tag +Kristi Fahlsing +Kari Tedrick +Allen Simpson +Salvio Giglio (gotta represent Italy dude) +Ajda Boksic Filipovic 😉 Okay, gotta go work a bit… it's crowded under the desk. But so comfy… I just need a sheet to throw over the top and I have a fort.

  23. Scott Cramer says:

    +Mary C. +Mar Mai Cuz I am sleepy deprived.

  24. Keith Cramer says:

    This soooo seems like a +Damian Sanchez thing to do.

  25. Keith Cramer says:

    I miss +Aldric Newberry. He would have done it.

  26. Daniel Börresen says:

    Hashtag does not work… Too long I suspect…

  27. Keith Cramer says:

    looks like +Steve Wilde is under his desk now: http://goo.gl/EkUaN

  28. Steve Wilde says:

    Canada covered – save your knees, +Elaine Lindsay!
    I'm just glad when I posted mine I could see no spiders looking over my shoulder…

  29. Michael Bennett says:

    Here you go +Scott Cramer https://plus.google.com/100505833047070274019/posts/Bb6ySgDjYtq

    yeah, I don't shorten links.

  30. Jo Lane says:

    For the record the Hashtag works on my phone 🙂

  31. Damian Sanchez says:

    +Keith Cramer aw, dude, I'd be all over this like white on rice, but at the moment I'm currently unemployed and looking for gainful employment.

    (My walking papers made reference to me being a slacker and spending inordinate amounts of time stacking stuff and playing with gummy bears…but I beg to differ.)

    Will a picture of me under a Starbucks table, (where I can get decent Wi-Fi and work in my job searches) count?

  32. Halfdan Reschat says:

    Damn. I did not have time for Google+ at work so I'm only seeing this post now, on my way home.

  33. Jo Lane says:

    Do you have a desk at home +Halfdan Reschat ?

  34. Daniel Börresen says:

    +Jo Lane now the tag works for me too but I get only one post

  35. Jo Lane says:

    Is that because they are not public posts? I can see most of the posts I think.

  36. Halfdan Reschat says:

    +Jo Lane, I do; but that's not even close to being as entertaining to sit beneath and take a photo of myself as it would have been to do at work.

  39. Daniel Börresen says:

    Not under desk anymore but I'm moving out of my place tomorrow and Will be running a Hangout all night if you want to say hi =)

  40. Scott Cramer says:

    +Halfdan Reschat Then, to make it more entertaining, take a table and/or chair outside in a public area. 😉 Fluffy would do it. #justsayin  

    +Damian Sanchez Anything in the spirit of International Take A Picture Under Your Desk Day is awesome! You can go under the couch… or an ottoman… our Starbucks in public is super awesome. Double dog dare you.

  41. Damian Sanchez says:

    Aw, damn! Ok.

  42. Scott Cramer says:

    +Allen Simpson … tap tap tap…

  43. Michael Bennett says:

    #InternationalTakeAPictureUnderYourDeskDay was trending on my feed.  Nice!

  44. Scott Cramer says:

    Super!!! Now I have to buy all new trendy clothes. +Jo Lane should we coordinate outfits?

  45. Rhonda Stewart says:

  47. Halfdan Reschat says:

    +Scott Cramer, it's dark, cold, and raining outside, I live on the second floor, and I'm sober. That task is something I'm not planning on attempting.

  48. Rhonda Stewart says:

    assignment-silliness achievement unlocked. What now? (please don't say: back to work!)

  49. Kristi Fahlsing says:

    Bummer! The ofc I work for has a strict no picture taking confidentiality policy…part of working in a law ofc I guess. BUT +Scott Cramer & +Keith Cramer can take a pic under my old ofc desk (tehe)…previous ofc desks count, right? 🙂

  59. Halfdan Reschat says:

    Wait, so who again started this?

  60. Jo Lane says:

    +Scott Cramer & me, unless by some weird coincidence somebody else came up with this hashtag 😛

  61. Halfdan Reschat says:

    +Jo Lane, I thought you were just playing along. For some reason when I search for the hashtag, the earliest post I find is by +Scott D, an hour after this post. Search is not really working for me.

  62. Steve Wilde says:

    There are buttons for "Best of" and "Most Recent". Click the "Most recent" to see them in order.

  63. Annette Holland says:

    I just read the article. I think +Jo Lane 's original post doesn't show because she shared "Limited". +Scott Cramer just gave it a huge boost.

  64. Jo Lane says:

    yes, I was shy being first 😛

  65. Halfdan Reschat says:

    +Steve Wilde, I'm sorry but I find your comment offensive.

  66. Steve Wilde says:

    Oops, +Halfdan Reschat, I certainly did not mean for it to be. It was not an comment about your intelligence or skills of observation.  I miss little GooglePlus quirks all the time and thought maybe you hadn't seen that. I meant to make that a longer post as well (mentioning that I miss that sort of thing all the time, just like I did here) but my phone rang and I hit "Post Comment" instead of trying to remember to come back for it.

  67. Scott Cramer says:

    Halfdan is channeling Fluffy. It happens sometimes…

  68. Fluffy McSharkah Khan says:

    This buffet is looking better and better.

  69. Mary C. says:

    He probably needs a sandwich

  70. Fluffy McSharkah Khan says:

    Yes, that's right. Even when people are hiding under their tables I still can only see them as buffet, just for the taking.

    #InternationTakeAPictureUnderYourDesk  History (edited for context):

    7:15am Jo Lane – OK, now my colleagues are wondering why I'm giggling at my desk – I love my G+ buddies 😀
    7:20am Scott Cramer – If you were giggling UNDER your desk, then it might be a little weird. Fun, but weird. 😉
    7:20am Scott Cramer – Dare you to post a picture from under your desk. 😉 😉 😉
    7:20am Scott Cramer – Peer pressure. Peer pressure.
    7:23am Scott Cramer – Oooo… we could totally make it international take a picture under your desk day. 😉 You could be a trend setter.

    So… at 7:25am, Jo Lane posted a pic of her feet under her desk. I commented back, "Head and body must be under desk and picture taken at arm's length. ;-)"

    At 7:42am, Jo Lane posted her picture under the desk and labeled it "#InternationalTakeAPictureUnderYourDeskDay" with the message, "Just because +Scott Cramer asked and I break easily under peer pressure. Come on people – don't leave me feeling like a Friday Fool on my own ;P" It was a limited post so I asked if I could share her pic public.

    At 8:38am, I put up the public call to action post (http://goo.gl/uI8OS) pic of Jo edited with the hashtag and some silly verbiage.

  72. Jo Lane says:

    Wow – that was very accurate +Scott Cramer & now I feel bad for taking any credit, it was clearly all your idea 😀

  73. Scott Cramer says:

    Ph-shaw NO, and NO! You created the hash and did the pic while at work… and were the one who planted the seed! Go delete that comment right now, young lady!

  74. Scott Cramer says:

    Partners in crime!

  75. Jo Lane says:

    I won't delete but I will accept the offer of partnership & I live being called 'young lady' 😀

  76. Scott Cramer says:

    You're silly. I want my autograph. 😉

  77. Halfdan Reschat says:

    +Scott Cramer, thank you for that origin story of this thing. I like the way shenanigans are born when you're near. Sorry that I didn't get around to posting a photo for the day but I think the rest of you did the concept justice.

  78. Michael Bennett says:

    No doubt +Halfdan Reschat, it was trending at various points throughout the day.  I was laughing all morning because of #InternationalTakeAPictureUnderYourDeskDay

  79. Damian Sanchez says:

    +Scott Cramer done! http://goo.gl/Fljt4

  80. Keith Cramer says:

    +Lily Guevara told me she ALMOST did it. Then she said something about looking foolish… and her boss being in the room and… blah blah blah… I quit listening after that.

  81. Scott Simpson says:

    Beneath my desk, I've found cat barf on a power bar and have no idea how long ago it was deposited. This has turned me off of photo-taking, and of power.

  82. Ninja On Rye says:

    But turned you on to cats, +Scott Simpson ? o.O
