At work, when I log in, I have to open Outlook first, then Windows explorer so that they are 1st & 2nd on my taskbar.

If Outlook closes by accident, I will close all other programs and re-open everything again, starting with Outlook..then explorer...so that order is restored.


I am turning into a robot here.

haha! im the exact same!

outlook has to be first. it's just not right any other way. so i guess that makes me anal. but not The Colt anal.
 
Someone once asked to sort out a problem with one of the computers in here. I was having trouble navigating around the thing, as the guy had about 5,000 "untitled3187.xls" files, piled about 30-deep, sitting on the desktop.

I gently introduced him to the idea of folders, how they made everything much easier to organise, and he seemed pretty enthusiastic. Next time I saw his desktop, the mess of files had disappeared, and had been replaced with about 5000 untitled folders.
 
hmm, how are we defining 'anal' here?

Some of these examples sound more like 'obsessive compulsive' or 'tidy'


I reckon this post is pretty anal

According to my mother i just put things in a pile and move along. Which is kinda true. I couldnt give a fuck about how messy things are.

BUT...

If im making something I get anal enough.
 
the usual...
arrange the remote controls so that their symmetrically sitting beside each other, moving things on a desk so that their not crooked.
whenever im driving and i put the gear stick into neutral i have to shake it from side to side 2 or 3 times.
i also tend to go back and check things are locked even though i just locked them seconds previously.
i dunno if thats anal, more ocd.
