Staples School/Office Supplies Haul

**SALE PRICES GOOD THRU- JULY 30** My Whitney Sews channel- youtube.com/user/aglanceatmyworld
Video Rating: 5 / 5

A while ago, I was asked by the popular format “Businessweek” to make a “How To” for their series of such articles. My specific task was “How to make weapons from office supplies”. Now an office is paradise for the eager makeshift weapons maker! Lots of heavy, sharp things around. So I started to play a bit – here are the results. A part of the video – the pencil shooter – was actually published by them, the other weapons have probably been too effective (= scary lawsuit magnets) – they did not use it. But for my true fans – here is the full “director’s cut”! A “The Slingshot Channel” production.

Someone at work decided it was time to re-label the office supply bins a little more accurately. Have I mentioned that I love my job?

Wanted a picture of a clipboard for commercial, modifiable use. Didn’t find one at the time. So I decided to raid the office supply closet and make one. :P

It’s not a perfect photo — I took it with my cell phone — but it fit my needs.

Despite the license to the right, I do NOT require attribution. There was no way to opt out of that particular ‘requirement’. Strange.

Three generations of graph composition books sold under the same item number by Office Depot.

Bottom: 2005, made in the US. Light grey lines on white.
Middle: 2006, made in China. Light blue lines on white. Probably my favorite, partially because it says "graph comp book" on the cover.
Top: 2007, made in India. Thick BRIGHT PURPLE lines on white. I just sent back a box of 15, and am pissed off that my favorite piece of office supplies is no longer available.

(Actually, I didn’t send the 15 back – the phone support person told me to just "donate them"; it’s more expensive for Office Depot to ship them back than to just throw them out.
Anyone need 15 graph composition books with thick purple lines?)

About Swingline
Founded in 1925 in New York City by Jack Linsky as the Parrot Speed Fastener Company, the company now known as Swingline is located in the rolling hills northwest of Chicago. Currently a division of the ACCO Brands Corporation, Swingline made its reputation over 60 years ago as the first stapler manufacturer to let you pop open the top of the product and drop in the staples. They’ve been making equally revolutionary developmental strides in stylish office products ever since.

Movie buffs may recall that a Swingline product was featured in the 1999 cult-classic film “Office Space.” One disgruntled employee, named Milton, complains repeatedly that his red Swingline stapler was stolen and eventually sets fire to the office building in retaliation. Although at the time Swingline had not manufactured red staplers for years, customer demand was so tremendous that in 2002 they released a limited edition series.
