Reporter: Mr. Pontefract, I understand you recently crossed the decade mark of not having an office. Is this true?
dp: Is bald the new black?
Reporter: Ok, ummm. sure. Why haven’t you used an office over the past 10 years?
dp: Offices get in the way. I like to mingle. I like the freedom. I like the change.
Reporter: Where do you put your photos, degrees and certificates?
dp: Seriously?
Reporter: Alright, how do you hold private meetings?
dp: There are these things called ‘meeting rooms‘. I use my fingers to book them when necessary.
Reporter: Do you get tired of hoteling stations, moving around and not being in one place all the time?
dp: If you truly are going to be collaborative, adopting a mobile working strategy is helpful. I like to think of my lack of an office as a cause for celebration. I work from home on occasion as well. Maybe someone will give me a new laptop bag for 10 years of being office-less.
Reporter: We don’t have any budget.
dp: Typical.
