No you can’t have my stapler

Posted on | May 16, 2005 | 4 Comments

Among the weirdos I work with, several stick out as extra special weird. SK is one of them. I am fortunate enough to not be on many projects with him. He’s a PM, and I’ve dodged that bullet so far. However he comes around often enough looking for co-workers in my row. Twice now he’s taken special notice of my red swingline stapler.

“Hey, you have a stapler. You buy that?”

If i say no, I’m afraid he’ll steal it. Thankfully the truth is, “My Fiancee bought it for me, back up cowboy.”

Is there such a thing as a stapler fetish?

    Not only is there a stapler fetish, but stapler makers are happy to entertain it…Now that I have my sleek black plastic and grey rubber Swingline Flat-Clinch stapler, I’ll never go back…NEVER!!
