hot-desk
Rotate seating daily
Hot-desk is a workplace arrangement where employees don't have assigned seats but use whatever desk is available when they arrive.
The practice emerged as companies sought to reduce real estate costs and accommodate flexible schedules: We hot-desk now, so I never know where I'll end up sitting.
As a verb, to hot-desk is to work under such an arrangement.
