As the Executive Director of a non-profit organization I am always looking for the best value when it comes to equipment and service. Often it is a struggle to find that one company that can give you both at a level our organization can afford. I am proud to say that for the past 4 years we have been very pleased with Yuma Office Equipment. They worked within our budget, pairing us with the best copying and fax equipment, along with a comprehensive maintenance agreement. Offering same day assistance if something goes wrong, and knowing that their technicians are right here in town has added to my belief that they offer the best value. We appreciate everything that Craig Crossland and his staff do for Hospice of Yuma and recommend Yuma Office Equipment to any business looking to add new copying and faxing equipment.

Why You Should Never Eat at Your Desk Again
Posted Jun 26, 2017
Research shows that fewer American workers than ever are taking time for lunch, with only 1 in 5 employees doing so. While skipping a true lunch hour as a trade off for being able to leave the office at 5:30 is common practice for many of us, it is not without its consequences. Why should you consider declaring your desk a food-free zone?
You need to get out of your chair for your health - Sitting in a chair all day is bad for you. Studies have shown that sitting for too long can shorten our life spans. It increases our risks of cardiovascular disease, cancer, type 2 Diabetes, and strokes. Spending all day at our desks can also lead to anxiety and depression.
A break actually improves your productivity - Forgoing a change in your environment all day hampers creativity, concentration, and innovation, reducing your productivity. Getting up, stepping away from your desk, and changing you environment is a proven way to sustain attention, concentration, and energy levels.
Your desk is unsanitary - We should all be familiar by now with how unsanitary our workspaces are. Our desks are comparable to-if not dirtier than-toilet seats when it comes to harboring bacteria. Eating food at your desk is extremely unsanitary and can make you ill.
