I don’t know why staplers seem so underrated. Like there is one in my entire office and I bought it for myself, kept it on my desk but got so annoyed at the multi-hour “can I borrow your stapler” interruptions I bought another and put it by the printer — and there is still only 1… but it is the most frequently used item in the office. Rant over, but still.

Thanks for writing this- I love the idea and practice of desk minimalism.
