    The latest AJM has a very good article about organization and
    cleanliness as it relates to productivity.  We moved our shop a few
    months ago and spent a great deal of time going over and streamlining
    our processes and equipment layout.  I began reading the article
    thinking I knew everything, and found it had some tricks I hadn't
    thought of. 

    Also, a Feng-Shui book won't hurt.  Some of it's a little out there,
    but the basic premise is creating an environment that's inviting and
    safe.  It will have you clearing pathways and positioning equipment
    so you can see the doors, among other practical things.
