Office Supplies

[da]

I just left a backpack full of office supplies in my department's supply closet.

A ream of legal paper, a box of maroon presentation folders, and quite a lot of magic tape.

In 1997, I went on an office-supply rampage when my company won a contract with the US Department of Education. (Enough said? I think so.)

Except to add: my closet is that much emptier, and I am that much happier.

(*) If there's anybody local who needs legal paper, a box of maroon presentation folders, or rolls of magic tape I might be able to hook you up.

I have a really cool tool for thinking through some of that I could email you if you'd like.

That sounds like it might be of use? Sure, send it along!

I think my base problem is sentimentalism about stuff, combined with a filing system that has failed to give me the right places to put some of that stuff. ...however, I think I'm on the right track now, thanks to unclutterer: once I've gotten rid of the things I don't use or display, I'm going to put more shelves into the closet, get rid of the big-ass crates that make it impossible to find what I want, and put the useful stuff in sensible plastic tupperware-type containers with labels. :)
