    Make a giant electro magnet ( or let a nuclear bomb off in the atmosphere) and wipe the data form all the computers on earth ( except for your of course)MAHAHAHAHAHAH :P ( evil grin)

    That way they will HAVE to use paper and will NEED a stapler.

    Everyone knows the paperless office is right up there with the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny, and Santa Claus. Great concept, but a figment of folklore.

    How Do You Sell a Stapler To a Paperless Office?

    Buy and expensive display case, put the stapler in it, have an expensive looking plaque made that says "We proudly declare this company Paperless!" Tell the executives of the company to place the display in the most traveled location of the office and refer to it often in press releases and staff meetings.

    Sell it to them for a incredibly high price!

    So now the question becomes, "How Do You Sell a second Stapler To a Paperless Office?"

    Gold plate it, mount it on a large, heavy polished piece of hardwood, and award it to the employee of the month determined by their lowest use of paper. Of any kind.

    BTW have just uncovered a real "paperless office". Air New Zealand are buying Boeing 777's equipped with an "Electronic Flight Bag" system (at a cool $250k per aircraft) which automates ALL the aircraft documentation, manifest, pax lists, fuel charts, performance and operations manuals, Airline SOP manuals, Jeppesens Route/Terminal Info, etc. See here for more info:https://www.boeing.com/news/releases/2005/q1/nr_050322g.html

    So those guys really won't need a stapler... Except, maybe, for stapling the captain's tie to his tray table when he is catching forty winks on a long sector. {kidding, I NEVER did that, honest...}

    Oh, I bet the kids colouring books still use paper, though...

    Since the office was developed to 'paperless office', we need to develop our stapler by adding some more functions to the stapler.

    我们的订书机, not only a common office tool you see in ordinary offices, is a portable flash harddrive. It will have a USB port by which you can plug to any PC or laptop.

    - You can hand the stapler to your manager as your sale report in the paperless office.

    - You can store your valuable information in it and carry it with you everywhere.

    - You can take the stapler home if you want to bring some files to work at home.

    - You can leave it on your table and let your colleague wonder what the stapler is doing in this paperless office.

    ——你可以给你的朋友the paperless office the stapler as a gift in any special occassion.

    - You can distinguish your files saved on the stapler by their color, blue for your personal notes, green for marketing reports and red for confidential files.
