You step into an office and see somebody under the secretary (the table), with his laptop and ask:
"What are you doing there?"
"Low-level programming."

You're right:-) Desk :-) It's my daily problem, when writting in English :-) In Portugal, we use the word "secretária" refering to a desk, but we really don't have any other word for that. As you can see, "secretária" is very similar to "secretary", hence... my mistake :-)
Thanks for pointing that:-)
