Stapler - Get one you can bang
Get a good old-fashioned stapler you can slam with your fist or your hand, on your desk. It'll be one of those way cool things people will make fun of but secretly covet. I'm amazed people tolerate the frustration of trying to staple things with the staplers that you have to pick up and squeeze. Gimme a break.

Heres what I use:

Pilot Chrome Finish Full Strip Stapler
Model #404
Staples Special Order #ACE-04040
Sale price $20.21
(Reg. price $25.95)
Lifetime guarantee.

Wham. Done. Fast. Neat.

I also have a big honker stapler for handling seriously thick stapling. It's a Swingline Model #113. I use it about once a month for misc. stuff, and at year-end for stapling all my credit card statements together, etc.



[Note from our network:]

David,

Try an electric stapler and youll never want to use a manual one
again. Ive had a Panasonic unit (Staples Special Order Catalog.
PAN-AS302N) for about eight years and its the biggest time and energy
saver. It staples at least 20 sheets and sells for $112.95.
