I think you should send a memorandum concerning this "Memo crisis" to everyone involved in this problem, before its too late to write a memo!

I'll get right on that, but I have a meeting with the 'BOBS", and did anyone see my stapler?

I'm missing my stapler too! I used to have a desk by the windows where I could see the squirrels and they were married...

Heck, there's a box of Office Space stuff available at various bookstores that has a PC Load Letter error sign, TPS report covers, assorted Flair, and yes, a Red Swingline Stapler.

Trivia note: Swingline never made a red stapler before the movie came out. It was due to all the requests following the release of Office Space that finally led them to make them.

I know, some of the stuff is great!! (Right after the movie came out, we spray painted some staplers at work red!!) It took a while for people to catch on!!

I didn't know about that set until I was in a guy's office at the Smithsonian last year working on his machine. On my way out, I realized that, over his door, he had a big banner that said "Is it good for the company?" :D:

here is a web site that you might like, you can put up a poster, and unless you really READ it, it looks "normal"

We put up several in our spaces, and it took a while for people to read what they said...hehehe
