Random Officeness

So i hate when there are 4 pieces of paper and 3 staples in them to hold them together.....thats almost one staple for each piece of paper!!! that is just stupid!! And it's something that you know is going to be 4 or more pieces of paper...just wait till you have all the pieces to staple! thats what i do!! B/c even though it does not seem like a big deal 3 months down the line when your files are getting super fat and over filled b/c you have all this extra bulk due to OVER stapling you will not be happy!! Maybe i have worked in offices to long or maybe i'm just crazy but i hate having too many staples in something.....and if you go to add more papers to something why not take the staple out before adding YET another one? Please don't tell me you don't have the time b/c i know you do! (FYI this is not directed at anyone it's just a general policy that i feel should be followed by any office person)
Then there is the excessive amount of paper work for one thing!!! We print out the order, sales order, 3 ply packing slip, and the invoice!!! (hence the 4 pieces of paper that get stapled with 3 staples!) Everything is saved in the computer yet we still have all this paper work so what is the point of having the files in the computer? And everyday the computer gets backed up.....everyday! So why all the paper work? i don't know?! Waste of money and time.....
Then there is how we get trucking bills and have to match every single order with every single bill......that i am going to have to work on finding a better way!
this is just a funny thing.....We have an office (the only office) without a window. So the other girl who use to sit where i sit now (and now sits up front thank GOD i don't have to sit up front) and the girl who shares an office with me put up a "window." It is a giant picture of a window with a view of a beach and ocean. It even has a fake curtain that sweeps off to the side like the wind is blowing it! it is so funny!! We have a plant in our office and my supervisor is always wondering how it stays alive. And the girl in the office with me says it's b/c the cleaning lady always waters it. So when the cleaning lady was in she told her how he is amazed at it being alive. And she said it would do even better if it was in front of a window. So the girl in my office and i joked that we could move the window so the plant would be in the "sun light." (yes we need help!)
ok that is all for now.
