Paper Clips

I used to put on my annual tax law mailing there would be a penalty for using staples.  Everyone understood it to be a joke except one lady who called me up all pissed off.  What right do I have to charge a penalty for using a stapler.  The following year she bought me a 10-pack of paper clips as a gift.

Usually, most of the paper clips I get from clients get pitched as I am going through their stuff.  Some of them are rusty since I think they came over on the Mayflower.  Others are so small that they are useless other than "clipping" one piece of paper.  I also hate the ones with the "serrated" edges that lock on to paper like vise grips.  I only use the smooth jumbo paper clips, anything else is useless to me.  But in the future, instead of filling the local landfill I'll start throwing them in the "Jim" box and send them to you once the box is full 😉

I like to paper clip all of the good sujestions I get from intuit. Needless to say I only need a very small clip.
